Songs that got you through the rough times

[coraliesolms 47]

So Ive had a few glasses of the grown up grape juice, and Im listening to a few of my favourites, I was wondering if anyone else has a song that got them through their immigration, or described how they feel about it.

For me its lady antebellum "need you now".... anyone else have a song that they listen to everyday?

[Inky 1,110]

Eat you up - BoA

On The Wing - Ocean Eyes

Help Im Alive - Metric

These 3 songs have over 50+ plays on my ipod and over 100plays loop on my itunes lol... I listend to them so much im surprised that my players didnt break hehe. Not sure if its your style but they really helped to keep me upbeat about the process. I still listen to them A LOT haha.

edited to add links for the songs to youtube.

I've been thinking of a thread like this!! These songs are also long-distance relationship related...LDR's as I have come to refer to it!

"World on Fire" By Sarah McLachlan

Hearts are worn in these dark ages

You're not alone in this story's pages

Night has fallen amongst the living and the dying

And I try to hold it in, yeah I try to hold it in

"I Need Love" By Seal

Through the rainstorm came sanctuary

And I felt my spirit fly

I had found all of my reality

I realize what it takes

'Cause I need love, love's divine

Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind

Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name

"Love is an Army" LeeAnn Rimes

Fear is any army

Fighting against me

Fighting a lost cause

If I could only change their uniform

They'd be soldiers of love

Marching on and on

Love is an army

Waiting for me

Waiting for this girl

If I could only stretch my arms around you

I'd suddenly see

There ain't nothin' wrong with me

"You're Not Alone" Olive

It is the distance, that makes life a little hard

Two minds that once were close, Now so many miles apart

I will not falter though, I'll hold on till you're home

Safely back where you belong, And see how our love has grown

You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time

Open your mind, Surely it's plain to see

You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time for you

Open your mind, Surely there's time to be with me

Just a few of my favourites....

[Wishing 1]

OH! And of course...

Alicia Keys "No One"

I just want you close

Where you can stay forever

You can be sure

That it will only get better

You and me together

Through the days and nights

I don't worry 'cause

Everything's going to be alright

People keep talking they can say what they like

But all i know is everything's going to be alright

[Otto 83]

Lots of play-lists - this is a favorite (thought you might enjoy).

[coraliesolms 47]

Ive heard that one Otto.. Its a really good one. "youre the best " Another one thats on my playlist frequently is "courage" by authority zero.

Here Without You. By Three Doors Down

Title: 3 Doors Down - Here Without You lyrics

Artist: 3 Doors Down Lyrics

A hundred days had made me older

since the last time that I've saw your pretty face

A thousand lights had made me colder and I don�t think I can look at this the same

But all the miles had separate

They disappear now when I�m dreaming of your face

I�m here without you baby

but your still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby

and I dream about you all the time

I�m here without you baby

but your still with me in my dreams

And tonight it�s only you and me

The miles just keep rollin

as the people either way to say hello

I've heard this life is overrated

but I hope that it gets better as we go

I�m here without you baby

but your still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby

and I dream about you all the time

I�m here without you baby

but your still with me in my dreams

And tonight girl it�s only you and me

Everything I know,

and anywhere I go

it gets hard but it won�t take away my love

And when the last one falls,

when it�s all said and done

it get hard but it won�t take away my love

I�m here without you baby

but your still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby

and I dream about you all the time

I�m here without you baby

but your still with me in my dreams

And tonight girl it�s only you and me

O?HHHH! I havent listened to that one in a while. Its very good actually.

[Deb+Steve 13]

Hi Coralie - I read your thread yesterday and I hope you're feeling better today. I will say some Ohms for you ...

But re: Need You Now ... My husband has apparently set that as my song for his ringtone when I call him and I heard it today for the first time because he asked me to ring so he could play it ... and I don't like it ... He was crushed.

I like listening to Massive Attack and Portishead. Teardrops and Glory Box are my favourites.

[Wyatt's Torch 45]

I don't think there are any songs I've listened to for the purpose of "getting me through", but there are some great songs / artists listed here already. Metric, Massive Attack, Portishead...all faves of mine too.

Ministry - Jesus stole my hotrod.

Ohhh mah gawd.

I love ministry.

I'm more of a fan of the song Stigmata, or New World Order.

[Sprailenes 47]

Good songs to get you through hard times eh?

[The_Dude 1,142]

LoL, I was gonna suggest a certain song by the band Dope, but I can just imagine my wife shaking her head at me posting that video
