[xBettyBoopx]

'The Rose' by Bette Midler :yesyes: :yesyes:

[sleepylea]

Green Day - Time of your life.

Seriously listen to the words... Its one song that helped me when I was so low, "So make the best of this test and dont ask why, its not a question, but an answer learned in time"

[MissConstrued]

My inspirational song is Love me by Mica. I like the idea of everyone is going to love today and it fills me with hope for the day completely trashy poppy, almost throw back to the 80s but that is what I like about it.

Am trying to find the courage to listen to sunscreen by Baz Luhrman (sp?), which is very inspirational and I used to but I think I would find it a bit upsetting at the moment.

Nina.

[Lindalou64]

only god knows why------kid rock

[Krakers]

Hmmmmmmmmmmm - caught me at the wrong time of night for this, but I shall reply anyhow.

"Losing my religion".

Krakers.

[lucyma]

:yesyes: Songs can make me laugh and cry and I know that is what most of us experience.

I like "Don't worry be happy"
Titanics Theme song .My heart will go on.

I love listening to Andrea Boccelli he makes me feel so emotional and good.:blush:
And searchers and Beatles

[lucyma]

sounds good I love dont worry be happy.Most days I try to do just this it just doesn't always work out like this

[Granny Primark]

I also like Love me by mica another one i love is Cherish by Kool and gang.
But my all time favourite tune is "Children" By Robert Miles

Take care
LYNN xx

[SammiB]

I really like - i hope you dance as well

but the best one for me that helped me get out and about:

I won't back down - sam elliot - originally johnny cash

you can stand me up at the gates of hell and i won't back down
hey baby there aint no easy way out
hey baby gona stand my ground

[Vandelay]

There are so many to choose from but I'd have to go with 'Jump' by Kriss Kross. This is a particularly moving piece of music lovingly performed by the songs authors, Mac Daddy and Daddy Mac. It has particular sentimental value to me because it reminds me of the time I was in Morrisons looking for some toffifees and I couldnt find any. At this point I felt hard done too because they had been recomended to me by a friend and I felt I was letting them down, or that they would think I was being aloof by not purchasing them. I left the supermarket and then something happened that changed my outlook of the entire situation.

I whistled to the cab and when it came near
the license placesaid fresh and had a dice in the mirror
if anything I could say that this cab was rare
but i thought 'forget it yo home to bel air
I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
and I yelled to the cabbie 'yo homie smell yalater
looked at my kingdom and i was finally there
to settle my throne as the prince of bel-air

[Southern_Belle]

Lately my fav has been "Nessun dorma" by Pavarotti, now I don't know what the heck he is singing but it is just beautiful and I get goosebumps. :cloud9:

Laura

[anxious]

Yazz - The Only Way is up :D

and i will always love Sophie Ellis Baxter for If this ain't love, as it brought me out of the darkest days

[alexis]

I have so many, in so many different areas but one which has to be one of my most treasured is No matter what, by Boyzone.

[Tom_M]

Music as always been part of my life. I think music can inspire you and invoke good memories from the past.

[Social Phobe]

Stronger-Sugababes

That's my one too! It has fantastic lyrics. Sometimes I just repeat the first line to myself if I'm feeling down. "I'll make it through the rainy days"

[CarmR]

There are so many songs that inspire me! One I was thinking of before is "Strong" by Leanne Rimes.

"The light of my life's been stolen, I've walked in every shade of black, and I never thought I would get me back. It's funny how life can change you, and make you who you are today, I wonder if God set it up that way, for me to be... Strong, even when it hurts, the heat is gonna burn, gotta let it go, Strong, Strong, to make a big mistake and never run away...There's nothing like this feeling, to be free and unafraid, who ever thought I could be this brave? Learning every day...I wanna push away the boundaries, I wanna love outside the lines, I wanna stare at the sun, be ok if I go blind, whatever comes, whatever breaks, I'll stand up straight..."

[ade]

the coventry carol
sung by the mediaeval baebes
"thou little tiny child"

Another one- So Small by Carrie Underwood. "While you're sitting around thinking about what you can't change, and worrying about all the wrong things, time's flying by, moving so fast, you better make it count cause you can't get it back..."

[lawzy]

mika - relax, take it easy

[Richie]

Another inspirational song from the 80's again is "Open your Heart" by The Human League
just quote a few lines
"Being an island ,shying from trying
Seems the easy way, such an easy way
But there's no future without tears"

"so you stand here with the years ahead
Potentially calling
With open heart or with the spirit dead
You walk on"

"If you can stand the test
Your worse is better
Than their best"

[Oceanblue]

I have ton's, but the most meaningful song's to me are the two song's I seemed to continously listen to when I was very ill and was sectioned on a ward two year's ago.for three months. I thought I'd never see the light ever again. But I was VERY wrong :) .

1st one; 'Imagine' - Eva Cassidy's version, I used to sing this all the time whilst crying and crying. I couldn't understand the world.

2nd; Crazy - Gnarls Barkley. This song came out whilst in stay at hospital and so this mean's alot to me especially as the lyrics say it all really. :D As I started to become stronger, this song actually helped me. I had completely lost myself at one point/my mind, I could relate to everything he was saying.

[sam_1]

Incubus-Drive aaaaaand pardon me. they are amazin!

[Ma Larkin]

[sweet_petite]

for me it's gotta be "fighter" by christina aguilera

[bearcrazy]

Mine is Labbi Siffre 'Something inside so strong'

Also have had a lot of inspiration from Leon's 'Believe'.

[Lilith1980]

My inspirational song changes depending on what band I am into!

At the moment I am into a German band called De Vision whose music is in the same style as Depeche Mode.

They have a song called "The Far Side" and the lines I like the best are:-

Dont go calling for yesterday, the past is dead and gone
Dont go calling for yesterday, the best is yet to come

Gives me hope and motivation to move on and not dwell too much on things that have happened.

[Angel64]

Whitney Housten :- One Moment in time.

Give me one moment in time,

when I'm more than I thought I could be,

and all of my dreams are a heartbeat away

and the answer is all up to me !! :)


Christine.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[aliciajane]

This song always makes me smile :)

Invincible - Muse

Follow through
Make your dreams come true
Don't give up the fight
You will be alright
'Cause there's no one like you in the universe

Don't be afraid
What your mind conceives
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Let's use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

[krisg910]

hey all i have so many favourite songs, its hard to choose. however the 1 i will nominate is.

comftably numb-pink floyd

as i feel in someway we are all comftably numb in our pain and suffering

xxx

[Richie]

Hi Alicia that song has beautiiful and inspirational words thanks so much for putting them on here
Love Richiexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[aliciajane]

No problem :)
I'm glad they meant something to you.

[Wolfie]

Ok, this is difficult for me, seeing as music is my life lol, so I'll limit myself to 3 songs:

1) Famous Last Words by My Chemical Romance

I happened to hear this song when I was at my lowest ever, and I know it may sound cliche, but this song really did save my life and I don't think I'd be here if it wasn't for the awesome lyrics! They really do sound as if they come from the heart, and just listening to this song, makes me want to keep on going.

"I get weak...I am not afraid to keep on living, I am not afraid to walk this world alone..."

2) Wonder by Megan McCauley

Something that I listen to when I'm down, it's just a really good song with expressive lyrics and full of truth. It also reminds me of someone I love very much :)

"...When Breathing's A Burden We All Have To Bare And Trust Is Something We're Taught Not To Share...You Help Heal The Pain..."

And unfortunately, the last song I'm going to mention...

3) The Best Is Yet To Come by Aoife Ni Fhearraigh

A beautiful song sung in Irish. The translation is beautiful. The lyrics are wonderful. This song is something I feel really inspires me to do my best, it always brings a tear to my eye - everytime. A really truely great song.

Well, I'll shut up now x_x Check these tunes out on YouTube or something! You might find them helpful, just like I did, in many other ways...

Love and hugs,

Wolfie xx

[Bill]

Lots of songs inspire me including classical, opera, pop (the older ones like me!) and musicals but one I was playing today was Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon and Garfunkel.

When you're weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all,
I'm on your side,
When times get rough,
And friends just can't be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down,

When you're down and out,
When you're on the street,
When evening falls so hard,
I will comfort you,
I'll take your part,
When darkness comes and pain is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down,

Sail on silver girl,
Sail along by,
Your time has come to shine,
All your dreams are on their way,
See how they shine,
If you need a friend,
I'm sailing right behind,
like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind.


We all get tired of anxiety and feel small, we all get depressed and stressed out, we all need comfort from a friend who understands, we all need a bridge to support us and we all live in hope that things will get better....and all these things include me.

[Richie]

Hi Bill
didn't know all the words to the song but of course have heard it many times, just shows that most of us me most definately included lol ! just really do not LISTEN properly
Just seeing those words written down made me cry but that was a good thing.
Thanks Bill for sharing those words xxx
I'll print them out, its good to carry inspirational sayings, proverbs, etc around, someone i knew put up these huge posters of positive verses on their walls, probably won't go that far though eh lol
Noticed your note at the bottom, you seem so strong always for others,
but you too feel depressed and anxious and need to take care of yourself xx
as well, and let out your own cries for help if you ever need too xxx
LOTS of BIG hugs to you BILL xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[clairev]

[H22]

I wouldn't really say inspirational but Colin Hay-Over kill
Some of the lyrics i can relate to anxiety

"I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know I'll be alright
Perhaps it's just imagination

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear"

It's a lovley song actually =]

[leo05]
