Pre-Spring Motivational Mood Music

At the request of a friend, I'm posting what I consider my 'pre-Spring motivational mood music' that keeps me working on crap when I'd rather be out in the park feeding pigeons and gazing at strangers. Reviving optimistic music for a new start and the Spring rebirth. It's all about symbolism and lots of St. John's Wort.

I don't know if it was the music, the mojo or the SAM-e but damn, the mood and the mindset are definitely back to a point they haven't been in close to a year. These are power songs, psyche songs, salvation songs.

“For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside
that it aint no sin to be glad you’re alive.
I want to find one face that aint lookin’ through me,
I want to find one place, I want to spit in the face of these badlands..”
