Unblocking with a song...

Do you have any songs that will lift you out of a bad writing period? Songs that inspire you to continue working?

This is the one I use.. Every night... before I write, I sing this song.

"I can go the distance" - Michael Bolton
http://youtube.com/watch?v=e4GiCzDUTX0 (song music video)

I have often dreamed, of a far off place
Where a hero’s welcome, would be waiting for me
Where the crowds will cheer, when they see my face
And a voice keeps saying, this is where I’m meant to be
I’ll be there someday, I can go the distance
I will find my way, if I can be strong
I know ev’ry mile, will be worth my while
When I go the distance, I’ll be right where I belong
Down an unknown road, to embrace my fate
Though that road may wander, it will lead me to you
And a thousand years, would be worth the wait
It might take a lifetime, but somehow I’ll see it through
And I won’t look back, I can go the distance
And I’ll stay on track, no, I won’t accept defeat
It’s an uphill slope, but I won’t lose hope
Till I go the distance, and my journey is complete

If you sing this aloud to yourself.. when no one is around to listen...
You'd be surprised what power it has...

If this song doesn't work for you... you will be able to find your own song, and learn what drives you.
