A fan anthem for a Western music band

Yellowcard – Lights And Sounds

When you get serious about chasing your dreams, there will be people who laugh and say, “That’s impossible for you.” But you can just laugh them off—in the end, the ones who keep pushing even while being laughed at are the ones who get what they want.

That’s the message I feel from this song.

Yellowcard ~ Lights and Sounds

Released in January 2006, this song is included on Yellowcard’s fifth album, Lights and Sounds.

The lyrics are about chasing your dreams, and it’s an empowering anthem that says even if people around you make fun of you, as long as you have a clear vision of who you want to be, your dreams are sure to come true.

Angra – Carry On (Official)

This is a classic song with strong classical elements from the talented Brazilian band Angra’s debut album.

André Matos’s soaring high-register vocals are wonderfully expressive, and Kiko Loureiro’s fast, melodious guitar work is outstanding.

Be yourselfAudioslave

Audioslave – Be Yourself (Album Version)

Have you ever found yourself going along with someone more than necessary so they won’t dislike you when you start to like them, or doing the same things as everyone else because you can’t say what you really want to in society? The chorus’s repeated message—“Living true to yourself is everything”—is perfect for people like that.
