Something to love – Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit (2017) d225
I hope you find something to love, Something to do when you feel like giving up, A song to sing or a tale to tell, Something to love, it’ll serve you well.
Up to the mountain – Patty Griffin (2007) d224
Thanks Patience for the suggestion. Sometimes I feel like I’ve never been nothing but tired, And I’ll be walking ’till the day I expire. Sometimes I lay down, no more can I do. But then I go on again, because you ask me to.
I can see clearly now – Johnny Nash (1972) d222
For Grace and Houston I can see clearly now, the rain is gone, I can see all obstacles in my way. Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind. It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) Sun-Shiny day.
Keep on the sunny side of life – The Whites (2000) d219 – Eclipse Week 8
Oh, the storm and its fury broke today, crushing hopes that we cherish so dear. Clouds and storms will in time pass away, and the sun again will shine bright and clear.
Here comes the sun – Yuna [Beatles cover] (2012) d217 – Eclipse Week 6
Here comes the sun, and I say, it’s alright.
The sun is gonna shine – The Carnival Brothers (2013) d216 – Eclipse Week 5
What’s to lose, when it’s love we’ve got to gain?
Moonshadow – Cat Stevens (1971) d214 – Eclipse Day
I know. You were expecting Bonnie Tyler, but this is one of my all time favorite songs, and filled to the brim with hope! Thank you Yusef.
I still believe – The Call (1986) d209
I still believe. Through the pain, and through the grief, Through the lives, through the storms, through the cries, And through the wars. Oh, I still believe! Thanks Kevin for the suggestion.
Shine – Alexi Murdoch (2006) d208
Andy suggests this Alexi Murdoch meditation. “‘Shine’ may not fit, but it seems appropriate and it has two of my favorite lines “time to believe in what you know” and “you don’t need strength to be strong”
