Songs of Hope
It feels like the world has gone mad. In turn, it makes me want to focus on positive thoughts. Music can be such a powerful force for hope and healing. I would love to hear some of your ideas.

“Here Comes The Sun”
I was going to post the MLT duo session but wasn’t able to. I guess we’ll just have to settle for the Beatles 😉

Hello Diana,
as a child, I was enchanted by the musical „The Wizard of Oz“. Especially when Dorothy is torn out of the dreary gray of everyday life and suddenly wakes up in the colorful land of Oz and meets friends who help her solve her problems and create new hope.

MLT Music is an already a Given therefore for je what else comes to mind for this topic , is anything by Dusty Springfield, Mamas and Papas, Glass Tiger, Reba McEntire, Vince Gill, , etc that are upbeat , fun lyrics, and I feel good and dance and sing along to, that defines my song choices of Hope… ????????

This is by Pink Floyd. It has a nice message. It was released in 1987 I remember thinking the guys from Pink Floyd are starting to look old. I was 22. As I was just watching this, I was thinking about how young they look here.
It’s called “On The Turning Away”

Hi Diana, I love this Bob Marley song. For me now I will always envision Mona, Lisa and little Neve when I hear this, 3 Little Songbirds.

A song that always echoes hope is this one, “there is sunshine after rain”.
“June”, “Count On Me”, “Close To You”, “It’s Alright”, “No More Worries Company”, “That’s Life”, in fact I think hope is one of the recurring themes throughout the entire album Orange for me.

This George Harrison song always evokes feelings of hope also.

Hi Diana, another one that comes to mind that always resonates hope is ….”Take It To The Limit, one more time”…..

Maybe not a song directly about hope, but a little guide on how to enjoy life:

Jurgen, I’ve been off the grid (sorry for the late reply). Here is a feel good song from Queen.

Thank you for the song by Queen Diana. (I hope you are well). The group has written a lot of groovy music, but “Don’t stop me now” has a special mix of dynamics and elegance. One of my favorite Queen songs. I also have a good mood song here:

Hi Jurgen,
This would be great on an exercise playlist. I can see riding my bike up the hill with this one.

Sorry, Tom. As you know by now, you’re not allowed to sleep in this club.
The discussion of The Muppet Movie in another thread made me think of this one:
