Music to mend a broken heart....

I noticed lots of people post links to songs or lyrics on their threads, and thought I would start one about it. It's not about miserable songs to wallow in, or songs that make you feel sad because they remind you of better times, or the scummy partner. It's about the songs that make you feel BETTER, pick yourself up off the floor and say "YES, I can do this, I am strong and will get through it". So I'll go first, it is of course the song I have been posting on everyone elses thread...Gloria Gaynor's "I am what I am". Or maybe the Wiggles "Big Red Car". (Doesn't say anything life affirming but makes us all dance round the sitting room like maniacs, which can only be a good thing). Or Annie Lennox, "Thorn in my Side".
Links and lyrics are good, but just song titles is equally good. Let's share the happy music!!!

I Am What I Am

I am what I am
I am my own special creation
So come take a look
Give me the hook or the ovation
It’s my world
That I want to have a little pride in
My world
And it’s not a place I have to hide in
Life’s not worth a damn
Till you can say
I am what I am

I am what I am
I don’t want praise I don’t want pity
I bang my own drum
Some think it’s noise I think it’s pretty
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle
Why not try to see things from a different angle
Your life is a sham
Till you can shout out
I am what I am

I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the aces sometimes the deuces
It’s one life and there’s no return and no deposit
One life so it’s time to open up your closet
Life’s not worth a damn till you can shout out
I am what I am

I am what I am

I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck sometimes the aces sometimes the deuces
It’s one life and there’s no return and no deposit
One life so it’s time to open up your closet
Life’s not worth a damn till you can shout out
I am what I am

And for those of you without children, here is the famous BIG RED CAR:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePrP8t56eww
I was dancing round to this with the baby before he went to nursery and just felt so much better!!! And also the lyrics, "Toot toot chugga chugga Big Red Car, we'll travel near and we'll travel far" could be taken to apply to the journey we are all on! Everybody to the Big Red CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glorious Gloria

Gloria Gaynor: "I will Survive"

At first I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
Without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
Thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along

And so you're back
From outer space
I just walked in to find you here
With that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I've have known for just one second
You'd be back to bother me

Go on now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now
'Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I

I will survive
Oh, as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive
I will survive, hey hey

It took all the strength I had
Not to fall apart
Kept trying hard to mend
The pieces of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights
Just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high

And you see me
Somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
Still in love with you
And so you felt like dropping in
And just expect me to be free
But now I'm saving all my loving
For someone who's loving me

Go on now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now
'Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I

I will survive
Oh, as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive
I will survive, oh

Go on now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now
'Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I

I will survive
Oh, as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive
I will survive
I will survive...
