Thread: Songs that speak to you.....

..... well Diva and Shazza finally got their way and I am listening to Mary J Blige, Reflections!!

Favourite song at the moment is MJB Da MVP because it is a song of a survivor, and I intend to mirror that - this year I am gonna survive it all and make it to where I wanna be!!

So what song is speaking to you today and filling your soul?

take thats new song......patience .......lol

Muse - Butterflies and Hurricanes. I used it in class this morning and I find it very motivational. It's the song I was listening to when I decided to train as a fitness instructor. Some of the lyrics, if you don't know the song:

change everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called

you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
your time is now

don't let yourself down
don't let yourself go
your last chance has arrived

Here's the Muse song:

Oh beyond anyshadow of a doubt my favourite and most listened to song is by R Kelly - I believe I can fly, here are some lyrics.

Some wonderful friends of mine engraved a couple of the lines on a mirror when I moved the business out of the home and into our office, it hangs in our meeting room at work! The lines in red and the ones engraved on my mirror!

R KELLY LYRICS

"I Believe I Can Fly"

I used to think that I could not go on
And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I'm leaning on the everlasting arms

If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

[1]
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly

See I was on the verge of breaking down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me, oh

If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

[Repeat 1]

Hey, cuz I believe in me, oh

If I can see it, then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

[Repeat 1]

Hey, if I just spread my wings
I can fly
I can fly
I can fly, hey
If I just spread my wings
I can fly
Fly-eye-eye

unwitten by natasha bedingfield always fills me with optimism

Star Star **
Star star teach me how to shine shine
Teach me so I know what's going on in your mind
'Cause I don't understand these people
Who say the hill's to steep
Well they talk and talk forever
But they just never climb
Falling down into situations
Bringing out the best in you
You're flat on your back again
And star you're ever word I'm heeding
Can you help me to see
I'm lost in the marsh Star star teach me how to shine shine
Teach me so I know what's going on in your mind
'Cause I don't understand these people
Who say we're all asleep
They'll toss and turn forever
But no rest will they find...#

Wow....there are way too many to mention!! However, particular favourites are:

When running self development workshops, I usually play Breakthrough by Mary J Blige as the attendees walk in. It has FANTASTIC lyrics....not gonna type them all out but here's a snippet:

"Ain't no telling what you're going through
but we're gonna break through and take you
take you where it feels soooo good!"

Also love Let it Flow by Toni Braxton which is about letting go and just riding the wave of change.....love this one soooo much!

Loads, loads more......and yes I Believe I Can Fly is also on that list!!!
