Des'ree - You Gotta Be
Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
Stand up and be counted
Don't be ashamed to cry

You gotta be...
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be
wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be
stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay
together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day

Hear all what your mother said
Read the books your father read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time
Some may have more cash than you
Others take a different view
My oh my, yea, eh, ee

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be
wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be
stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay
together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day

Time ask no questions, it goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace
The world keeps on spinning
can't stop it, if you tried to
This best part is danger staring you in the face
(wo0o0o)

Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
My oh my yea, ye, ee

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be
wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be
stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay
together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
yea, yea, YEA!

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be
wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be
stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay
together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
yea yea...

Got to be bold
Got to be bad
Got to be wise
Do or never say
Got to be hard
Not too too hard
All I know is love will save the day

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be
wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be
stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay
together

ONE WAY by THE LEVELLERS

There's only one way of Life
And that's your own

My father when I was younger
Took me up to the hill
That I looked down on to the city smog
Above the factory spill
He said this is where I come
When I want to be free
Well he never was in his lifetime
But these words stuck with me

I ran from all of this
And climbed that highest hill
And looked down on my life
Beneath the factory spill
I looked down onto my life
As the family disagree
Then to all my friends on the starting line
Their wages off to chase
and all my friends and all their jobs
And all the bloody waste

CHORUS

I grow up, learned to love and laugh
Circled A's on the underpass
But the noise we thought would never stop
Died a death as the punks grow up
And we choked on all our dreams
We wrestled with our fears
Running through the heartless concrete streets
Chasing our ideas

And the problems of the world
Won't be solved by this guitar
And they won't stop coming either
By the life I've had so far
And the bright lights of my home town
Won't be getting any dimmer
Though their calling has receded now
Like some old distant singer
And they don't seem so appealing
To the eyes of this poor sinner

CHORUS

This is hard... I always get really carried away. I went through my iPod and made a massive list, but I narrowed it down to spare you.

Top 10 most positive songs I recommend:

1. Beautiful Morning ~Ace of Base

2. Heut' Ist Mein Tag ~Blumchen
("Today is My Day" - German)

3. Sunrise ~Bennie K
(Japanese)

4. Don't Stop Movin' ~Livin' Joy

5. Life Is Sweet ~Natalie Merchant (I think the studio version is better, but all I could find was a live version)

6. The Journey Home ~Sarah Brightman

7. Я с тобой ~Юлия Савичева
("I'm With You" - Russian)
(I don't know why I can't find this on YouTube...)

8. It's Time ~Lebo M (from the Lion King album, Rhythm of the Pride Lands)
(English/Zulu)

9. Work That ~Mary J. Blige (I just found this fanmade video, and it cuts off the beginning of the song.)

10. Why Not ~Hilary Duff

There are too many worship songs I could add... unfortunately most of what I have can't be found online.

Another group I really recommend (my favorite) is Qkumba Zoo (QZoo on their second album). They have a lot of incredibly positive songs... Rain, The Child (Inside), Big, Mermaids, Happy Earthday, Time of Wonder, Beautifull, DNA, and even Butterfly People & Let the Light In have beautifully uplifting lyrics, even though the music is slow. You might have a hard time finding some of their songs though.

Wait, wait! I have a couple of really cheesy positive songs I have to post.

Tubthumping ~Chumbawumba

Best I Can ~Queensryche

And these are just some really perky songs I also recommend... the lyrics don't have as much meaning as the ones above, but the music is uplifting and the songs are fun...

Dragostea Din Tei ~O-Zone
Caramelldansen ~Caramell
Matalij ja Mustii ~Värttinä
Bluebeard ~Cocteau Twins
Love Tropicana ~Sister Mayo (from Jungle wa Itsumo Hale Nochi Guu)
Spice Up Your Life ~Spice Girls
19-2000 ~Gorillaz
Hawaiian Rollercoaster Ride ~Jump5 (cover from Lilo & Stitch)
Diamonds in the Sky ~TJ Davis (from Sonic R)
...and pretty much every song by Temperance

Another good one from Savicheva

Юлия Савичева — Если в сердце живёт любовь

[Dreams~]

Another good one from Savicheva

Юлия Савичева — Если в сердце живёт любовь

Я тоже люблю ту песню!
But the music makes it sound so serious... I like her upbeat ones better.
(Except for Прости за любовь, that song is gorgeous.)

[crfromnashville]

This is one of the most touching songs I've ever heard. Generally all of her songs have some kind of message that is positive and God has blessed her with a truly beautiful voice.

[Autumn Fairy]

What a wonderful thread!

I believe positivity breeds positivity and likewise negativity breeds negativity. Yes we are naturally drawn to songs appropriate to our feelings at the time and that is not always a bad thing, but it can induce wallowing if for example your mood is already low. I know - I have learnt from experience!

I have spent many months trying to lift my own spirits and that of others around me going through hard times and as such I have compiled a wonderful list of positive songs but I'm always looking for more, so let's see if we can keep this thread going!

I currently have my list on another computer but I will come back later and give you a few of my favourites. In the meantime, the ones that spring to mind for me right now are:


The Only Way is Up! by Yazz and the Plastic Population

The Climb by Miley Cyrus

Get on up by Five

Shine by Take That (Howard is gorgeous!)

Don't Give Up by Josh Groban

The Rose by Bette Midler

Smile by Nat King Cole (but the Michael Jackson version is equally beautiful)

Voice Within by Christina Aguilera


Happy listening everyone!
