I just heard a song by Melissa Etheridge and Salman Ahmad that, in my opinion, is pretty uplifting. It is called "Ring the Bells of Peace". One can hear it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJCsNrZzC78
These two singer/songwriters along w/ Deepak Chopra are asking people to ring a bell for peace on 12/21/2008 noontime. http://www.ringthebellsofpeace.com/

Yello - Domingo De Santa Clara

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvsHnbzW6vU

We are here
In this holy cave today
To celebrate
The reincarnation
Of Domingo de Santa Clara
The man who convinced us
That there is no Lord
For His name is Buddha, Allah, Shiva, Jahve
Outside our bodies
We are God
'Cause only we can create the idea
Of His existence in our Holy Brains

Let us pray to ourselves and our spirits!

We all know
Domingo of Santa Clara
Will be born today, tomorrow, and the day after
Billions of times
'Til the end of the Universe
Here with a smile on his face
As the rest of our species watches
The catastrophe

David Bowie-"Heroes-Live" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYjBQKIOb-w

[dayzero]

Well thank you both so much - what excellent selections, didn't know that Enya track [she's very good] and that live version of Heroes was blinding.

I just found this looking for another track, and although it's not his best music, the graphics just make it;

Vangelis / Cosmos
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOf4SktPDak

[Dantheman62]

Try this, Tribute to Heroes, Wyclef Jean, Redemption Song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3FZ5v_fhYc

[Dantheman62]

Or this, Bon Jovi, Living on a Prayer, Tribute to Heroes, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0bFp...eature=related

[dayzero]

I've never really liked Wyclef until I saw this - really excellent, and definately music of the light....Bob really does seem to have been a prophet.
Brings tears to the eyes. Beautiful.


the Bon Jovi, although a really very impressive version I must say, doesn't quite fit for me as music of the light....

Okay, my turn.....

StarMan by David Bowie
Classic song, but if you're into 2012, UFOlogy etc check out the lyrics, made me laugh.

Theres a starman waiting in the sky
Hed like to come and meet us
But he thinks hed blow our minds
Theres a starman waiting in the sky
Hes told us not to blow it
Cause he knows its all worthwhile

[dayzero]

Mudança you're totally right, I can't hear that song anymore without
laughing out loud. and singing along out loud too, obviously.

[dayzero]

Dantheman62 - I love Neil Young, great stuff - what is this american heroes
business? they're all some of the best performances I've seen from these artists...

Clannad - theme from Harry's Game
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9t4gN_-nfQA

[Dantheman62]

Yeah all the performances are awesome!, It's called Tribute to Heroes and was made like the next day or two after 911, I think that Tom Hanks was one of the organizers. I think you can see the whole thing on Youtube! And if you notice, none of them will smile and all give from the heart in every performance.

I prefer the original more because I always end up singing along to it. It's one of the few songs I can actually decipher the lyrics to. Seems fitting too since it's a beautiful song.

[dayzero]

Hey Dan, that's okay - I was about to go into one about how Pink Floyd's 'the Wall was one of the most awful 'victim mentality' albums ever made [great sounds notwithstanding - unfortunately the film also gave the irritating Bob Geldof a new lease of life too]........anyway, and then I was going to post some of their much better earlier material...

Ah, look, I'm ahead of myself;
