I just have to say before American Idol airs again tomorrow that I can’t get over last week’s great performances. I still find myself singing to Anyway by Kristy Lee Cook and Angels by David Archuleta. May I just also say that I really think that it was a good idea for itunes and American Idol to offer full studio versions of the performed songs and I really recommend that people download the performances from last week.
I really like feel good songs, it really keeps me going through college stress specially with my frequent depression attacks.
Here’s something I’d like to try here on the internet. I’m going to list my top 5 most inspirational songs in no particular order and why I like them. After blogging I’ll ask 5 more people to blog their 4 most inspirational songs and why.
- “Anyway” by Martina McBride
To tell the truth, I only heard of this song when Kristy sang it last week. Even though I’m not a fan of Kristy, I really liked the performance and the song.I like how this song tells you to do things even if no one appreciates them. The songs message is extremely noble and is something I want to live by. - Imagine by John Lennon
I’m a person who believes in the power of positive thinking (well now I do). Imagine is simply a song that everyone probably knows and remembers.I remember I first heard this when I was in the 7th grade and my AP (this is filipino social studies/ history class) played this song in class. Though the lyrics are somehow controversial, it really made me question a lot of things and analyze the way I look at things. - Angel by Sarah Mclachlan
This is a song that I think anyone will love. It’s that kind of song that really makes you relax and want to keep going when you’re tired from all the quizzes, deadlines and projects that you have to do - With a Smile by the Eraserheads
It’s one of the iconic songs of the 90′s Philippine rock revolution. There’s just something about how you can sing this song anywhere and you’d feel better afterward. - Bad Day by Alvin and the Chipmunks
Yes, not the Daniel Powter version. I like the chipmunks version cause within the first 5 seconds of the song you’ll find yourself smiling because it’s simply adorable!
