What song inspires you?

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

My favorite inspiring song of all time is "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor. A few years ago, I was fired and happened to hear that song played again on the radio. Listening to it made me feel that I could also survive my circumstances. As it happened, I had two other jobs lined up, so losing one that I stopped caring about was inconsequential.

  I believe the song you mean is "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey.
  
  One of my favourites at the moment is "Empire State of Mind (Part II)" by Alicia Keys.

  I don't have songs, but music that gets me going is stuff like AC/DC, Van Halen, etc. The Beatles and Beach Boys soothe the soul as well. I don't think today's music has the same effect. There are no generations or eras to current music. With ipods, online music, etc., there is just music.

  His new song "I'm not Afraid" is good too
  
  Different types of music inspires me, everything from rap to rock to country, just depends on the lyrics of the song.
  
  But for some reason, Michael Jackson's songs seem to inspire me the most. My favorite one is "Unbreakable".
  
  Thanks

I don't like a particular song but some rap, club and classical help to inspire me.

I also like silence too Nothing like sitting with your thoughts, releasing mental blocks and moving into inspired action.

Maaannn there are so many inspiring songs out there but my personal favorite is "Standing Outside The Fire" by Garth Brooks and "The Dance" also by Garth Brooks. I believe you most definitely have to stand inside the fire to be successful. I don't think successful people think or act like what most people would call normal. You have to stir things up a bit.

Off the 8 Mile soundtrack by Eminem........Lose Yourself
Last line before the song ends he says "you can so anything you put your mind to man."
Coming from this man...that meant a lot to me...and to millions of others who dream big and work hard.

Against all odds - phil collins
Reminds me of my sister as she lives in Australia
and the part,
'there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face, just take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space'
always reminds me of her.
the song can also be a reminder of a relationship, or a family member who has passed away.

  There are so many areas to be inspired in that I have many.
  
  But in narrowing it down to my Internet Marketing endeavors, I have two.
  
  One is "Take This Job and Shove it" by Johnny Paycheck.
  
  The other is Shania Twain's "Honey I'm Home" both, in reference to my old medical secretarial career that I walked away from and don't ever want to go back to.

Revelations by Yoko Ono - whenever I'm feeling negative, I listen to the lyrics of this song and it reminds me that you can simply choose to look at things more positively instead. YOKO ONO - REVELATIONS LYRICS

I also saw Stevie Wonder recently and wow is that man inspiring. Him and all of his musicians are just amazing to watch - such talent and dedication.
