Music Therapy

Seems to me we need to come up with some uplifting songs as therapy. Some of you have found great ones for your profile pages, but there isn't one place to collect them all. I wonder if we can list some of the songs that saved us, gave us hope, reassured us, etc. and see if rj and Cheryl can come up with a way to click on them as we do with photos and videos. If not, we can always Google the You-Tube videos or recordings.

I'll start with six:

Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying (Gerry and the Pacemakers)
(Hey, my AA showed up even before this song was on the radios in the USA!)

Bridge Over Troubled Water (Simon and Garfunkel, Clay Aiken)

Don't Rain on My Parade (Barbra Streisand, Lea Michelle from Glee)

A Whole New World (from Aladdin)

Just the Way You Are (Billy Joel. Love the sax as well as the words!)

Foo Foo (Santana. Makes me want to dance! Click on Shaman album cover or Athens concert in 2009 for best sound.)

Your turn. What did you listen to THAT HELPED when alopecia first showed up or was at its strongest?
Leave out the sad stuff...I am thinking of fun, hopeful or loving songs. Reassuring songs.

"What Makes You Different Makes You Beautiful" by Backstreet Boys (lyrics here) and, for Christians and similarly minded individuals, the newly birthed classic titled "Encourage Yourself": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibDbzykrfyw

Too many to name; I'm listening to my eclectic ipod mix right now. I love music! It's not hard to find a melody that moves you both figuratively and literally.

Wow! Some songs I never heard before! Some of pride, some of faith, some of steadfastness. Thanks, you all. Keep them coming...for all ages of alopecians!

i pretty much listen to all kinds of music, but if i had to pick a band that i frequent most it would be 311, a majority of their songs are positive
