Kitsune Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Which songs touch your soul? What gets your feet tapping and your blood boiling? What makes you feel ethereal or grounds you right here and now? What lifts you up? What leads you through the darkness? I don't know if this thread already exists or if this topic is in the wrong place! Share your favourite music and maybe make someone's else's day. I'm currently listening to:- 'Now we are free' from Gladiator - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mm-sbOH-nEc and 'The kiss' from last of the mohicans - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiXY7X_bcfo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonelyheartemma Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 just looking at some of my faves I've got on my laptop. I won't post youtube links as there's loads of them. These are all songs that touch my soul. The songs that make me dance are probably same artists/musicals but different songs though I think I could dance to anything. I Wanna Be- Chris Brown Almost Paradise- Footloose Beauty School Dropout- Grease The Climb- Joe McElderry Seventeen Hands- The Maccabees All I Want for Christmas- Mariah Carey Primadonna - Marina & the Diamonds Last Night of the World- Miss Saigon Out of My Dreams- Oklahoma What Makes You Beautiful- One Direction Think of Me- Phantom of the Opera Everybody Hurts- REM Love the Way You Lie- Rihanna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeaBee Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WxDrVUrSvI I've studied psychology and I would like to say I can rationalize revenge. Revenge is for the colder souls as you have to leave and live with what you've done. You can't go around asking people to validate your actions, or if you do they are the type that don't think your behaviour is unhealthy. Amid all that is good there is bad and amid all that is bad there is good, so there is nothing or no one that is completely good or bad. I guess that is my answer to the acts of revenge.

Dani Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 All along it was a fever A cold sweat high-headed believer I threw my hands in the air and said, "Show me something," He said, "If you dare come a little closer." Round and around and around and around we go Oh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know Not really sure how to feel about it. Something in the way you move Makes me feel like I can't live without you. it takes me all the way. I want you to stay It's not much of a life you're living It's not just something you take – it's given Round and around and around and around we go Oh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know Not really sure how to feel about it. Something in the way you move Makes me feel like I can't live without you. it takes me all the way. I want you to stay. Oh the reason I hold on Oh cause I need this hole gone Funny you're the broken one but I'm the only one who needed saving Cause when you never see the light it's hard to know which one of us is caving Not really sure how to feel about it. Something in the way you move Makes me feel like I can't live without you. it takes me all the way. I want you to stay, stay. I want you to stay, oh.

Really makes me think and feel. Coming up with little stories and montages for the music in my head. When it kicks in at 1.44 it's like it jsut flows through my veins. Amazing feeling. The lyrics too a simple yet powerful. LOVING THIS SOOONG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoRo Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 i am a rock and roll chick but i must say- the song that takes me out of my mood this week is the 1975 band- chocolate song. its not musically brilliant but it just reminds me of dancing around my house with my dog. there are too many life affirming songs for me to note down. xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayjay4466 Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 This song touched me hugely a few years back (one of those that "speaks to you"), and still sends a shiver down my spine when I hear it.

Liciane Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I love a very beautiful song from my country, it makes me happy and the singer is coming to my city this month, I'm very anxious to see him again, I like him so much!!!!! http://youtu.be/33A5zUaH8tY Carrying on- Almir Sater I walk slowly, because I've ever been in a hurry And I bring along this smile, because I've already cried too much Today I feel stronger, happier... who knows I just bring with me the certainty that I know very little, or nothing I know To know the tricks and the mornings¹ The taste of the masses and of the apples¹ It's necessary love, to pulse It's necessary peace, to smile It's necessary rain, to blossom I think that fulfilling the life is just Understand how it works, and always carrying on² Just like an old cowboy handling the cattle, I keep carrying all days on Through the long road I'm going, the road I am To know the tricks and the mornings The taste of the masses and of the apples It's necessary love, to pulse (blood) It's necessary peace, to smile It's necessary rain, to blossom Everybody loves someday, everybody cries We get here today, and we will go away tomorrow³ Each one makes his own history Each one bring with oneself the gift of being capable to be happy To know the tricks and the mornings The taste of the masses and of the apples It's necessary love, to pulse It's necessary peace, to smile It's necessary rain, to blossom I walk slowly, because I've ever been in a hurry And I bring along this smile, because I've already cried too much Today I feel stronger, happier... who knows I just bring with me the certainty that I know very little, or nothing I know Knowing the tricks and the mornings The taste of pastas and apples It's necessary love, to pulse It's necessary peace, to smile It's necessary rain, to blossom Author's comment: ¹ Tricks, mornings, pastas and apples: these 4 words were not meant to mean something special, but they were meant to be in there just because of the rhyme. ² Carrying on: moving forward/on. ³ We get here today, and we will go away tomorrow: literally means "one day we arrive, another day we go away", that means nothing is permanent in our lifes and if we just arrived here (if we just got some important achievement or something) it is not a permanent state, but another day it may fade away.

jayjay4466 Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Is that Portuguese Liciane? I remember seeing this on Jools Holland a few years back- I have no idea what she is singing, but the power and passion of the song blew my mind! http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=5xBcejqy5Rg (PS I hope it is Portuguese, or the rest of my post is a bit irrelevant!)

Liciane Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Hi Jayjay, this is Portuguese from Portugal. Beautiful song and interpretation!!! Thanks!! See the English version Oh People from My Land This fado is mine and yours a destiny that binds us however it might be denied to the strings of a guitar Everytime one hears the cries of a singing guitar one becomes immediately lost with a desire to cry Oh people from my land it is now that I understand this sorrow I carry I received it from you And it would seem like fondness if I allowed myself to be lulled the bitterness would be greater my singing would be less sad Oh people from my land Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayjay4466 Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Oh wow, thanks for the translation Liciane- the lyrics are beautiful! I was a bit worried that they'd be something really ordinary and mundane! I understand she's very famous in Portugal. Incredible voice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iscream Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 A song sung by Brandi Carlile... "The Story" All of these lines across my face Tell you the story of who I am So many stories of where I've been And how I got to where I am But these stories don't mean anything When you've got no one to tell them to It's true... I was made for you I climbed across the mountain tops Swam all across the ocean blue I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules But baby I broke them all for you Because even when I was flat broke You made me feel like a million bucks You do and I was made for you You see the smile that's on my mouth It's hiding the words that don't come out And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed They don't know my head is a mess No, they don't know who I really am And they don't know what I've been through like you do And I was made for you... All of these lines across my face Tell you the story of who I am So many stories of where I've been And how I got to where I am But these stories don't mean anything When you've got no one to tell them to It's true... I was made for you Oh yeah, well it's true... that I was made for you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
