What are some good songs to put with my powerpoint/video presentation?

Asked by HeartsLove7 (225points) August 27th, 2012

I am doing something kind of like a PSA, but for a class. What are some songs that give hope and encouragement to never give up? Also with that being said, what are some songs that are about children getting bullied for being different? The PSA thing that I am doing is about how autistic children are treated in schools, and what we as society can do to change people’s perspective of austic children and help end the bullying.

This song comes to mind first
Any good?
I’ll rack my brains meanwhile.

If you don’t mind using a bit of rock (depends on your audience, you know them better), these songs have really good lyrics:
Bully
Numb

I know this isn’t exactly what you’ve asked about, but my preferance would be to use something like this, maybe you’d be interested, maybe not.

And yes, i’d been too busy listening to Milkyway’s suggestions as well to reply till now.

Thanks, I’ll listen to it right now! :) Thanks for the song.

If there was some feedback on what has been suggested so far, i’m sure you wouldn’t be long getting something you’d consider suitable if not ideal.

Actually most of the songs are very helpful and I will use most of them. The ones that I instantaniously picked to keep were Crucify My Love, If Everyone Cared, and I Am Who I Am. :)

Very unsure of this one but i’ll post it here anyway
Pearl Jam, I am mine

Thanks for the song. I do love Pearl Jam, but I don’t think that it really fits with my video.

@MilkyWay Linkin Park just saved your limey ass, otherwise I’d have to flame you for your choice of music. Jeebus Crust!

@HeartsLove7 my ideas: REM’s Shiny Happy People, REM’s We Walk (do you see a pattern emerging? Well you’re wrong! Wrong I say! ;), Mike Oldfield’s On horseback, Mike Oldfield’s Celtic rain, ELO’s Hold on tight,

and finally… if you want a real tearjerker, play Israel Kamakawiwo Ole’s version of Over the rainbow

@fremen_warrior Not all of them are from my personal preference, they just fit in with what the OP wanted :P
