What song keeps you going in life? (beehaw.org)

I've had a few throughout mine, but nothing beats Monty Python's "Always look on the bright side of life". It always puts a smile on my face.

Life is cruel and will beat you down, but it can never be able to stop you from getting back up as a stronger person. For me, anyways.

What say you?

Anything by Andrew W.K., but "Music is Worth Living For" seems apropos https://cf.piped.video/watch?v=-CBTyi-ovO8

I Get Wet will pretty much be in the rotation forever.

Picture this: It's one of those perfect days in the shire. You are sitting in your armchair and smoking a pipe of haflings leaf. In front of you is the book with all your best memories. You open it and the first chapter is called Concerning Hobbits.

So... if I had to choose a goto song for my best memories, it would probably be this one.

Do you know about Green Days rendition of that song? Present from their Bullet in a Bible tour of American Idiot recorded live in Milton Keyes, part of King for a Day!

It's awesome, if you like the song it's a fun little bit.

I have many. From Audioslave and Authority Zero to Green Day to Soundgarden, I could never pick just one. But tonight's will be One More Minute by Authority Zero.

It's tough to pick just one, so here are a few that keep me motivated:

Toh Kay - The Hand that Thieves

NoFX - 180 Degrees

Bad Religion - I Want to Conquer the World

Inspirational, but it also makes me cry
