Songs depicting hope

Postby Pie Row Maniac » Sat Jan 11, 2003 12:26 am

I've been going through some emotional songs looking for a song talking about hope, holding on, not letting life get you down, that general concept. I've come up with a few, but can't decide. Anybody have any suggestions?
And no rap or country, please. :wink:

hide "Misery"
Smashing Pumpkins "Try, Try, Try", "Perfect"
Our Lady Peace "Life"
Oasis "All Around the World"
Joe Satriani "You Saved My Life" (There are no lyrics on this one, but you can feel the "hope" sense in this song)


Just to name a few...

Are you looking for music for an AMV? Anyhow:

"Resurrection" by Fear Factory is surprisingly upbeat for a hard rock song, although probably not what you're looking for.
"Today" by KMFDM is manic-depressive, but gets a more hopeful sound near the end.

It depends on what you need the music for. Give me more info :D .

Kthulhu can't read topics! Somebody help him!! :P

Nah, just songs talking about hope, "holding on", "not letting life put you down".
"With Every Light" by Smashing Pumpkins is a perfect example. I wanted to make a video about hope ever since I saw Hsien's video using that song. And considering some more recent events in my life, I want to make it more than ever.

So yeah. :)

I was wondering if you were needing music for a vid or just for your listening pleasure.
