Motivational songs! :D

Postby z3rosama » Tue Feb 03, 2009 2:36 pm

I'm looking for some deep, inspirational songs where the main meaning is "bad stuff happened, but you'll be okay" type of thing. Like the Foo Fighters - The Best of You, or Lost Prophets - Last Train Home. I'm a metal head mostly, so I lack in this category. I'd love to hear some suggestions! :D

I'm more of a "life sucks, so kill yourself"-type of person, so I can't really help you there, sorry :mrgreen:

Medicine has some other songs with the similar theme but here's one that's easily accessible :P

Okays :3

Well, I personally find this quite motivational but I don't know if it's exactly what you're looking for. It's a complex song in its own way

Couldn't really think of other ones right now. Good luck with your search :wink:

There

Cloud Cult's No One Said It Would Be Easy

you came up from the ground
from a million little pieces
you're a pretty human being
yeah you're a pretty human being,

when it all comes crashing down
try to understand your meaning
no one said it would be easy
this living it ain't easy

and you were sewn together
with a tapestry of molecules
a billion baby galaxies
and wide open spaces

and every thing you need is here
everything you fear is here
and it's holding you up
it just keeps holding you up

you came up from the ground
from a million little pieces
you're a pretty human being
yeah you're pretty human being

when it all comes crashing down
try to understand your meaning
no one said it would be easy
this living it ain't easy

I guess I'd have to say Dream Theater's "Learning to Live" is the most inspirational song I know. It's long, though. The second half of the song is pretty much instrumental.

lyrics
Kusoyaro: We don't need a leader. We need to SHUT UP. Make what you want to make, don't make you what you don't want to make. If neither of those applies to you, then you need to SHUT UP MORE.

"Ordinary Day" by Great Big Sea
"Happy" by Natasha Bedingfield
"Born for This" by Paramore (maybe not a "bad stuff happened, but you'll be okay" song to some, but I consider it to be)
"Dare You to Move" by Switchfoot
"Made of Steel" by Our Lady Piece

Those are what I think of off the top of my head.

Hmm, I think I'd have to suggest
"In the Valley of the Dying Sun" by House of Heroes.

Pretty epic song from a very under-appreciated band, in my opinion.

Also, maybe try...
"Burn Out Bright" by Switchfoot
"Between the End and Where We Lie" by Thrice
... yea ...
