What Are Your Self Confidence Songs?


Guest Lily B

Recommended Posts

Guest Selena Soh

I'd have to say that some songs that boost my confidence would be:

Heroes of Our Time (live)

Where Dragons Rule

Famous Last Words

Valley of the Damned

Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)

My Immortal (band version)

Bring Me to Life

And I have the feeling I'll think of about ten more as soon as I post this :P

I've seen many that I like, but I'm surprised no one has mentioned The Middle - Jimmy Eat World.

Hey, don't write yourself off yet.

It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.

Just do your best, do everything you can.

And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say.

It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.

Everything (everything) will be just fine, everything (everything) will be alright (alright).

I'll Make A Man out of You - off the Mulan soundtrack. It's one of those "Yeah, I can do this" sorta songs.

And then there's Life is Beautiful by Vega 4. It just really makes me believe that the world is a beautiful place and that it'll all be ok.

Wow - a walk down memory lane - this great ole topic - all the old names - many who have moved on.

Silly me? I like the 'When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again" old Irish song - reminds me of the Civil War - trudging on against all odds (I am from the losing side of the Civil War - so I see ragged young soldiers, suddenly beaten down to old men before their time, trying to get home through impossible conditions).

But I like the childhood lyrics with the ants - and these lyrics are not copyrighted.

The ants go marching one by one.

Hoorah! Hoorah!

The ants go marching one by one.

Hoorah! Hoorah!

The ants go marching one by one;

The little one stops to beat the drum,

And they all go marching down .

..

in the ground...

.

to get out ...

of the rain....

Boom, boom, boom, boom!

GREAT for just forcing yourself to keep on going... trudge trudge trudge

Silly me.

Lately, I've been listening to lots of New Wave and punkish music. Stuff that makes me dance like an idiot in my room and look at myself in the mirror in full drag and say "Dang I look good."

such as-

Human Sexual Response- Andy Fell

Boomtown Rats- I Don't Like Mondays

Talking Heads- This Must Be The Place

Devo- Race of Doom

Vampire Weekend- Walcott (yes I know this ain't new wave, but makes me feel like a girl =) )

Another Brick in the Wall 1,2,&3 - Pink Floyd

Anything from that movie is a great pick me up! The thought that a guy who has everything can watch his life go down the toilet like that makes all of my problems seem much more dealable.

How screwed up am I to see "The Wall" as an inspirtational movie...

I'll Make A Man out of You

I had a totaly differant song in mind when I read the title...

- off the Mulan soundtrack. It's one of those "Yeah, I can do this" sorta songs.

So not a Disney movie, well I guess Tim Curry has been a voice in several of them. Penance I suppose for his Sweet Transvestite days of Rocky Horror.

normaly many upbeat songs of my music library however recently I have found one which is really motivating me. the song is gay (in meaning of joy), catchy, was greatly written, has vocals which are little aggressive - it got everything to give you the right mood!

Highland Glory - From The Cradle To The Brave

it is difficult to find good quality of that song at youtube...

Wont back down-Tom Petty and My way-Frank Sinatra. Elvis did a good job on that song as well but I prefer Sinatra "The record shows I took the blows and did it my way!" last line of the song, always makes me smile when I am singing it and gives me goose bumps at the same time.

Wow deinately too many to choose from.

In no particular order:

I have a dream - ABBA

Get up stand up - Bob Marley & The Wailers

Better be good to me - Tina Turner

Pleasure & Pain (Every track on the album) - Dr. Hook

Huggs,

The songs; the musicians that give me strength and direction do not have lyrics of pertinence. They are just bands that I just adore...Avenged 7 Fold...Papa Roach... Bullet for my Valentine......Marilyn Manson......Evinescence......Emilie Autumn. The "magic" of music just carresses my often troubled soul. I don't want to analyse it too deeply lest the fragile bubble bursts.

"Something's Comin'" from West Side Story. & "Everybody's Talkin'", the theme from "Midnight Cowboy."

Also (and I'm not totally sure why) the song 'Watch Closely Now' which was performed by Chris Kristofferson in the flick of 'A Star is Born'

Go figure, eh?

With love,

Cissy

      Worry refers to the thoughts, images, emotions, and actions of a negative nature in a repetitive, uncontrollable manner that results from a proactive cognitive risk analysis made to avoid or solve anticipated potential threats and their potential consequences.

      Good morning    Now @Abigail Genevieve and @Mmindy what makes you so certain I didn’t mean it to say bee itch certificate?  lol. Thanks Mindy. I was asleep when you saw this and fixed it, and yes Abigail, as a moderator I could have fixed it myself, or weren’t you pointing out the irony of that?   I use Alexis as my alarm to get up.  And I set the ringer to be two guys telling me to get up.  I was so sound asleep when they started telling me to get up that it scared me and my first thought were I had over slept.  Since I have a difficult time getting to sleep as early as I have to in order to get enough sleep I at least cut back my normal awake time to get ready.  But now I have to do my hair and get going.   enjoyed my coffee and a little time catching up   see you all later, for its hi ho hi ho it’s off to work I go.   Willow

      Republicans have long committed grave errors by emphasizing their social agenda and moral issues instead of just focusing on the economy, lowering taxes, keeping the public safe, building a strong national defense, promoting business, touting reasonable immigration policies, etc.   The country would thrive economically under Trump's tax and business policies. That's a fact. Another four years of Biden will run this country into the ground financially (including all of our 401Ks and IRAs). But the GOP continues to play right into the Dems' hands by leading with their moral crusades instead of staying the course and trusting their fiscal policies to win the day...

      Thanks.  I will look those up in the document, hopefully tomorrow.   I always look at the source on stuff like this, not what someone, particularly those adversarial, have to say.

      LGBTQ rights Project 2025 takes extreme positions against LGBTQ rights, seeking to eliminate federal protections for queer people and pursue research into conversion therapies in order to encourage gender and sexuality conformity. The policy book also lays out plans to criminalize being transgender and prohibit federal programs from supporting queer people through various policies. The project partnered with anti-LGBTQ groups the Family Policy Alliance, the Center for Family and Human Rights, and the Family Research Council. Project 2025 calls for the next secretary of Health and Human Services to “immediately put an end to the department’s foray into woke transgender activism,” which includes removing terms related to gender and sexual identity from “every federal rule, agency regulation, contract, grant, regulation, and piece of legislation that exists.” The Trump administration proposed a similar idea in 2018 that would have resulted in trans people losing protections under anti-discrimination laws. [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; The New Republic, 2/8/24] Similarly, the policy book calls for HHS to stop all research related to gender identity unless the purpose is conformity to one's sex assigned at birth. The New Republic explains: “That is, research on gender-nonconforming children and teenagers should be funded by the government, but only for the purpose of studying what will make them conform, such as denying them gender-affirming care and instead trying to change their identities through ‘counseling,’ which is a form of conversion therapy.” [The New Republic, 2/8/24] The policy book’s foreword by Kevin Roberts describes “the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children” as “pornography” that “should be outlawed,” adding, “The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned.” Roberts also says that “educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Roberts’ foreword states that “allowing parents or physicians to ‘reassign’ the sex of a minor is child abuse and must end.” Echoing ongoing right-wing attacks on trans athletes, Roberts also claims, “Bureaucrats at the Department of Justice force school districts to undermine girls’ sports and parents’ rights to satisfy transgender extremists.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; TIME magazine, 5/16/22] Dame Magazine reports that Project 2025 plans to use the Department of Justice to crack down on states that “do not charge LGBTQ people and their allies with crimes under the pretense that they are breaking federal and state laws against exposing minors to pornography.” [Dame Magazine, 8/14/23] Project 2025 also calls for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to repeat “its 2016 decision that CMS could not issue a National Coverage Determination (NCD) regarding ‘gender reassignment surgery’ for Medicare beneficiaries.” The policy book’s HHS chapter continues: “In doing so, CMS should acknowledge the growing body of evidence that such interventions are dangerous and acknowledge that there is insufficient scientific evidence to support such coverage in state plans.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Going further, Project 2025 also demands that the next GOP administration “reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military.” The policy book’s chapter on the Defense Department claims: “Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service, and the use of public monies for transgender surgeries … for servicemembers should be ended.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023]   …summaries of what’s within the rest of the document re: LGBTQ+ concerns. A person can believe their gender is fixed but incongruent with their physiology, but the authors and Trump (by his own words) just see the incongruity of an “expressed gender” that conflicts with what was/is in a person’s pants.
