Title: Songs to Inspire and Empower
Post by: Mia and Marq on November 09, 2006, 04:26:05 AM
Hey everyone.
I thought a lot of these songs would probably be appropriate to share as music that might have meaning for some of us. Some very mainstream movies like Mulan depict what are considered to be subjects people aren't always comfortable with. I know I don't have the names right but its close enough to get an idea what that video is.

I shamelessly "borrowed" these videos from a blog entry of one of my friends. She won't mind.

Mulan - Reflection

Christina Aguilera - Beautiful

Shania Twain - Feel like a woman
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qns6Dt3McgQ

Kelly Clarkson - Miss Independant

Share any others you might have here too. I got a couple songs I have to dig up that I think inspire me as well.

That one by Shania Twain is on my space you know where....  I love watching it.  That level of beauty seems totally out of reach for most women... let alone us!  Still, she pulls it off very well. 

I've never been fond of the whining guitar in country/western music.  But the new stuff coming out could have been yanked from the 70's.  It's good ole rock N roll!
