Uplifting songs

This is a lovely song I only discovered since my son found himself in this awful situation - I find it so tender and uplifting:

Why worry - Mark knoffler and Emily-Lou Harris

One of my altime favs in times of deep trouble.... Lord, Help me walk another mile... I love it by Kriss Kristofferson but can't find in on YT - here's the Johnny Cash version: http://youtu.be/Jv4i4t2hj2I

Happy Sunday

[Izzy]

One of mine is a James Blunt song. He never released it as a single and it was rumoured to be because of the dark undertones of the lyrics.
I don't see it like that, but more of a friend letting another know that they will always be there for them.

Happy Sunday to you to

Thanks Izzy, it's a lovely song. I realise the one's I mentioned aren't particularly 'uplifting' but more comforters....

Ah tu verras,tu verras
Tout recommencera
Tu verras,tu verras
L'amour c'est fait pour ca...

Thank-you for this one and your words of support, BDC - it's one I know well and a favourite.

Hope you're doing OK

I managed to see my son for the first time in one year and a half and it went so well.
I am over the moon.

With your knowledge of music you must know " insensatez".
I really hope the best for you two.

Take care.

So pleased to hear that, I hope you'll soon be seeing him regularly and that it'll be the start of a very long and loving relashionship. Yes , I know this song well , it's so touching as well as Agua de beber which for me is a song of ocnstant renewal -AND jolly good advice to all - Drink water!

May you have many, many happy moments together.

Sheer beauty - Once upon a time/ Chacun d'entre nous a une histoire au fond de son coeur

http://youtu.be/peujg2cKcHs

Oh storyteller tell us a story Make it a tale Tell me about the people of old Tell me about 1001 Nights And about Lunja daughter of the Ghoul And about the son of the Sultan I'm about to tell a story We'll be far from this world I'm about to tell a story Everyone of us has a story in his heart Narrate and forget we're adults In your mind we're young Tell us about heaven and hell About the bird that never flew in his life Make us understand the meaning of the world

Oh storyteller tell it just as they told you
Don't add anything, don't leave anything out
We could see into your mind
Narrate to make us forget this time
Leave us at once upon a time
