Whatever religion or creed you may be, there are certain songs that truly inspire you to be a better person and make a difference in the world. What are yours? My first one is Switchfoot's "Meant To Live." This song has always shown up in critical times in my life, when I am searching for answers and need to feel a connection to the world.

Another favorite, about a favorite topic (innocence).

A more surprising choice, Sleepwalker should like it!

Of course, a Kinks tune is requisite, here's one to follow my previous post.

Well Tim, I always go back to songs our mother loved singing along to with her beautiful voice; this one always comes to mind first!

Similarly, I was trying to sing along to this today and it certainly did lift my spirits as I could also hear my mum singing it in my head !

Man, what I would do to hear her sing those 2 just one more time Tim! I believe we will hear her sing those again one day, as you know bro! For now, we can sing along with her voice still in our heads!

Great list uncle! 'Daddy Sang Bass' and 'Days' came to mind for me specifically too. Many Cash and Carter Family things; namely a super rare demo of Cash's 'My Ship Will Sail' with Earl Scruggs and the Carter Family and Amazing Grace by Elvis Presley which were played at me mum's funeral! 'Live Forever' by Billy Joe Shaver; another one played at me mum's funeral that inspires me a great deal!
