Hey there,

Just wondering what music all of you listen to through difficult times?

I have recently discovered it is not a good idea to listen to sad music. It just keeps my head in the place that I should not be. So I try to listen to inspirational, uplifting music.

Here is a few artists:

Tori Amos - strong, amazing, spiritual songwriter and musician. Has been through alot herself.

Sheryl Crow.

Mike Franti and Spearhead- Great music for chilling you out.

I tend to lean towards strong female role-models.

Please let me know all about your music of choice.

Chance:
Gloria Gaynor "I will survive"

Chicken:
Chrissie Hynde -The Pretenders

mum:
Michael Franti....YES!!  Red beans and rice!!

Healing&Hopeful:
I found the song Borderline by Madonna to be very theraputic...

Something in the way you love me won't let me be
I don't want to be your prisoner so baby won't you set me free
Stop playing with my heart
Finish what you start
When you make my love come down
If you want me let me know
Baby let it show
Honey don't you fool around

Just try to understand, I've given all I can,
'Cause you got the best of me

[Chorus:]

Borderline feels like I'm going to lose my mind
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline

[repeat chorus again]

Keep on pushing me baby
Don't you know you drive me crazy
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline

Something in your eyes is makin' such a fool of me
When you hold me in your arms you love me till I just can't see
But then you let me down, when I look around, baby you just can't be found
Stop driving me away, I just wanna stay,
There's something I just got to say

Just try to understand, I've given all I can,
'Cause you got the best of me

[chorus]

Keep on pushing me baby
Don't you know you drive me crazy
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline

Look what your love has done to me
Come on baby set me free
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline
You cause me so much pain, I think I'm going insane
What does it take to make you see?
You just keep on pushing my love over the borderline



Incidentally I saw an interview with Madonna last Saturday.  She went through a lot of sh*te with her father who was a minister.
