Music that Motivates

[Sunscreen]

That music video made itself to one of my YouTube playlists. Great stuff! Do you know any other ones like it?

This one isn't about overcoming the influence of gangs. It's about giving up drugs, haha. It's what came to mind when I saw that video. Still, it's about choices. Anyways, I don't think I posted it here yet.

Some more hardstyle...

and not hardstyle

I like the mind shift in Aaron Lewis's lyrics through the years. Its like you get a sense of before and after from when the money started coming in

A song that started me on my journey of change many years ago...

Powderfinger - Passenger

"Chained
So many places you'd prefer to be
Than framed
By a picket fence and salary"

My Way (Frank Sinatra)
....... to remember me to live full every moment in my life "in my way" without regrets and remorse

The Final Count Down (Europe)
....... the suggestion of the music in the live concert

Caruso (Lucio Dalla)
...... the power of the music made from Italy to the infinity

The new Tool album dropped a couple weeks ago, after 13 years of waiting. It's gone on to unseat T Swift as the #1 album, the first time in a year a rock album has been at the top.

Best track from the album, IMO

Thank you so much to all of you for contributing to this thread. Music is really such a powerful force that does motivate me and many times can change my attitude from negative to positive. It's friendship will always be there for us.

Out of curiosity, does anyone here actually play an instrument or is in a band or musical group? I can honestly say that from my experience, the ability to perform, entertain and be creative within a group truly is an enjoyment that I wish everyone could experience. I don't really know how else to explain it except to say that I believe that it is good for the mind and spirit, and develops a different part of the person, and perhaps different abstracts of reasoning.

Anyway, fwiw, I use to be a drum instructor for several years and was a hired gun for a while with a couple symphony orchestras, not to mention I was a national drum-off champ and each and every one of my students has placed 1st, 2nd , or 3rd in competition, always, and if anyone is interested in getting to a level of performance, I would gladly e-teach you through the basics, and I would do it for no cost whatsoever for anyone here on this site.

Anyway...

Lamboman, I find it interesting how methodical you are with your music selection first for running, which keeps repeating the same build, with no resolve. I can definitely see how that would keep a person focused on long distances. And your selections for thought, with the dissonance of Hans Zimmer. Thank you and I tried to give you rep speed but a popup said that I couldn't because I gave you some speed previously but didn't mention it.

MJ, I truly feel your message with Stallone in his Lambo and his mansion toolin' around town like nobody's business. And the message of fight fight fight and never give up on the dream because there's nothing easy about getting there.

sswift, infinity, and SDJustin, if you guys get a second, would you mind posting links to the sound files and giving us a brief explanation of how these tunes inspire you.

I thank all of you for contributing and hope we will have many more contributions here of ALL music styles... If it moves ya, please post it!

My song that I posted above by queensryche, I didn't realize that the media source I selected was only going to play a portion of it so I apologize for the half-a**ed effort and I'm reposting it here, with a utube link: YouTube - Queensryche video - "Take Hold of the Flame" In this song, the 'flame' that the singer Geoff Tate is singing about in my interpretation is the fastlane. -Chris

Kid Rock -American Badass

YouTube - Kid Rock - American Badass (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO WITH LYRICS)

The reason why Kid Rock aka Bobby is such an inspiration to me is because we use to jam in the same neighborhood way back in the day and back then, LA, New York and Seattle bands it seemed held the spotlight forever and outside of a couple of what we called, "tax write-off" bands (someone who would get signed but the label wouldn't put money into them), Detroit was dead on the map. I may be wrong but I believe the last artist to make it huge prior to him and MnM was Madonna in the 80s.

What's funny, and if anybody from back then reads this, I'm sure they'll get a laugh out of it too, but I use to work with Bobby's sister, and keep in mind he never EVER quit or gave up the dream so he had a couple minor label CDs out that were big in Detroit 10 years prior to his break out, but not National. But I asked her what she would do if he ever made it big, and her answer was, "My brother's a f'n a'hole"! lol... Bet she isn't saying that now

Anyway, for those of you who have musical ambitions and are talented enough to get a deal, what Kid Rock did to make an impression with the label was use the initial money the label gave him to buy his own CDs which inturn caused the label to put more money into him seeing that he was selling... :eusa_clap:

Jeff Beck- Air Blower

If you like fusion, imo, this album (Blow by Blow) is one of the best. What I really like about this stuff is how strait up 'raw' the drums were with very little effects.

YouTube - Jeff Beck - Air Blower

...and can't forget Freeway Jam

One more to show the funky side of the album!

Great road music!

Funny thing is, Drake is my "music that motivates"

Since I started listening to him in 2006 and to see him make the bright lights in 2009, it motivates me to have that same kind of perseverance. I mean come on...it took a lot of determination to shed that Degrassi image, and being from Canada in the music biz wasn't all too hot either.

Out to Greg

Boston -More than a Feeling

YouTube - Boston- More Than A Feeling
I looked out this morning and the sun was gone
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away

It's more than a feeling
(More than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(More than a feeling)
I begin dreaming
(More than a feeling)
'Til I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away

So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
As clear as the sun in the summer sky

It's more than a feeling
(More than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(More than a feeling)
I begin dreaming
(More than a feeling)
'Til I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away

When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away
She slipped away

It's more than a feeling
(More than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(More than a feeling)
I begin dreaming
(More than a feeling)
'Til I see Marianne walk away
