song/anthem

:welcomeani: Just a little light relief from the mayhem

If you had a song or anthem what would it be and why?

My anthem would be John Farnhams -You're The Voice
boy do we need this right now.

It's very relevant and its how I feel enjoy.:thumb_yello:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99P7TTvpO1g

"Another Brick In The Wall" and "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd.

Both line up very well with my life experiences, especially a disregard for authority and battling depression.

"Imagine" is also a song I enjoy.

"Un peu plus haut" by Jean-Pierre Ferland as interpreted by Celine Dion, Ginette Reno and Jean-Pierre Ferland in Quebec in 2008.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0otLIuTi0L4

Here are the lyrics translated:

Quote:

http://www.celinedionforum.com/Help-...l#entry1389895

A little higher

A little higher, a little further
I want to go a little further
I want to see what it's like, up there
Take my arm and hold my hand

A little higher, a little further
I want to go further still
Let go of my arm but keep hold of my hand
I won't go any further than is necessary

Just another step, another leap
A storm, a stream
Look out! Look out: I let go of your hand
Wait for me there; I'll come back

Another step, a small step
Another leap and I'm there
Up there, if I do not fall
No! I'm here! I will not fall

It's beautiful! It's beautiful!
If you could see the world way down there
It's beautiful! It's beautiful!
The sea is smaller than the self
But you do not see me

A little further, a little more alone
I don't want to be far away, all alone
Come and see how wonderful it is here
When you're high up, oh! how wonderful it is

A bit higher, a bit further
I can't hold your hand anymore
Tell me how I was able to climb up here
How to get back down without falling

A little further, a little stronger
Another leap! Try again!
I want to reach my arms out to you
I am too high, you are too low

Another step, a little step
You're too far away! I love you!
Farewell! Farewell! I will come back
If I get back down without falling

It's beautiful! It's beautiful!
If you could just see the world way down there
It's beautiful! It's beautiful!
The sea is smaller than the self
But you can't see it

A little higher, a little further
I want to go further still
Maybe a bit higher up
I will find another path

Use full screen for all of these...and viewer discretion for the third one. I chose 6 because I am indecisive and unstable. Some of us are here...'cause we're not all there.

Re: song/anthem

I made a playlist of the youtube videos posted so far:
http://www.youtube.com/view_play_lis...53B3A4B3DDAD3E

with this one added. This is maximum adrenaline and a definite anthem. This kind of music is called power metal. It combines classical harmonies with fast playing, and epic lyircs.

Quote:

On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign we ride towards the fight
When the darkness has fallen down, and the times are tough all right
The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight

Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel, through the wastelands evermore
The scattered souls will feel the hell bodies wasted on the shores
On the blackest plains in hell's domain, we watch them as we go
In fire and pain, and once again we know

So now we fly ever free
We're free before the thunderstorm
On towards the wilderness our quest carries on
Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
Deep inside our hearts and all our souls

[Chorus:]
So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

As the red day is dawning
And the lightning cracks the sky
They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
With resentment in their eyes
Running back from the mid-morning light
There's a burning in my heart
We're banished from a time in a fallen land
To a life beyond the stars

In your darkest dreams see to believe
Our destiny is time
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight

And on the wings of a dream, so far beyond reality
All alone in desperation, now the time has gone
Lost inside you'll never find, lost within my own mind
Day after day this misery must go on

[Chorus]

[Solos: Twin/Sam/Twin/Herman/Twin/Herman/Sam/Herman/Sam]

Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
We fought so hard now can we understand
I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
For freedom of every man

[Chorus]

This song and video floored me when I first heard it. I am not a fan of his but this is just incredible, enjoy!:original:

Michael Jackson - Earth Song - World Environment Day
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqeADZgjtpY

Although I prefer classic rock or blues I have to pick this as my anthem these days. The reason? I'm awake. (seems he was too)

Earth Song Lyrics
What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shed before
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth this weeping shore?

What have we done to the world
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son...
What about flowering fields
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth this weeping shore

I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don't know where we are
Although I know we've drifted far

Hey, what about yesterday (what about us)
What about the seas (what about us)
The heavens are falling down (what about us)
I can't even breathe (what about us)
What about Africans (what about us)
I ain't even you (what about us)
What about nature's worth (ooh ooh)
It's our planet's womb (ahat about us)

What about animals (what about it)
We've turned kingdoms to dust (what about us)
What about elephants (what about us)
Have we lost their trust (what about us)
What about crying whales (what about us)
We're ravaging the seas (what about us)
What about forest trails (ooh ooh)
Burnt despite our pleas (what about us)

What about the holy land (what about it)
Torn apart by creed (what about us)
What about the common man (what about us)
Can't we set him free (what about us)
What about children dying (what about us)
Can't you hear them cry (what about us)
Where did we go wrong (ooh ooh)
Someone tell me why (what about us)

What about babies born (what about it)
What about the days (what about us)
What about all their joy (what about us)
What about the man (what about us)
What about the crying man (what about us)
What about Abraham (what about us)
What about death again (ooh ooh)
Do we give a damn
