A message along the lines of "everything's gonna be fine, just take things as they come, stay positive, make the best of itm, just relax" etc. I could only come up with 15 songs out of 2000 on my play list that I felt really convey this (skimming quickly). I don't think it's a message that's sung about very often; certainly not often enough.
No More Rain (In This Cloud) - Angie Stone
Let It Flow - Toni Braxton
The Good Life - Faith Evans
In The Morning - Mary Mary
Try Again - Aaliyah
So Good - Destiny's Child
Relax Your Mind - Boyz II Men
Happy Face - Destiny's Child
Life Will Pass You By - Faith Evans
So Good - Karen Clark-Sheard
Do Something - Macy Gray
Open My Heart - Yolanda Adams
I'll Take You There - The Staple Singers
Turntable - TLC
Golden - Jill Scott

311 - Beyond the Grey Sky
Spiritualized - Come Together
Our Lady Peace - One Man Army
Metric - I.O.U.
and I'm kind of ashamed to say it because as a fan of R.E.M., I loathe this song.
R.E.M. - Shiny Happy People

I don't think this song was on there, but TLC's "Unpretty" was the first song I thought of when I saw this thread.
Thanks,

Los Lonely Boys', "Heaven" and Jessica Simpson's "Angels" are two current pop hits that have positive messages. "Float On" is the current positive alternative song. And: P.O.D. - Alive R.E.M. - Shiny happy people (I'm a fean of REM, and although it doesn't sound like a REM song it's real possitive) Janet - Together Again Scorpions - Wind Of Change Bob Marley - No woman No cry (Everything's gonna be alright... Everything's gonna be alright) Switchfoot - Meant To live The Cranberries - Free To decide (maybe not eaveryone is agree with this... but freedom to decide is a very possitive message) Mago de Oz - La costa del silencio (about ecology... great lyrics) ... |
