Discovering Inspirational Songs Imparting Peace And Harmony

By Catherine Cook


If there ever was a time that the world needed inspiration, it is now. One way individuals can help this come to pass is by playing, singing and sharing inspirational songs imparting peace. While Bob Marley's song, One Love, is often a good example, there are also current day artists creating, sharing and singing these songs.

For, past and current music artists and lyrics have long played a role in promoting peace and love, unity and courage. In fact, many artists have fought long and hard for justice against violence and uprisings. Whether fighting for justice against established societal norms, or helping people to recognize the importance of freedom, many have done so through song writing and performance.

There have been a number of artists whose songs have no doubt had a major impact on the world, John Lennon and Leonard Cohen to name a few. While this is the case, it is still important that current and future artists continue to work in this area. For, whether a song can change the world, or only bring peace and harmony to a community during a crisis, there is still an ongoing purpose and need for this music.

Whatever the action, the cause, the movement, it is important that singers and songwriters continue to promote a resolution through lyrics and performance. In addition, there are also artists, poets and writers working in this area. While these individuals often present work at local art galleries, open mics and theaters, most are overlooked.

Individuals wanting to see a change in the world can often help bring about that change by participating in local civic, political and social organizations. For, when an individual can share knowledge and insight with regards to issues on a local level, then it is more likely there will ever be global change in that area.

Whether listening to a radio station, video channel or sites such as YouTube, there is music which can be gratifying, uplifting and at times, awe inspiring. For those whom can afford cable or satellite, there are often a number of full concerts and channels offering a number of different genres of music. Whereas, others can find this type music online, or through local radio stations and other media outlets.

In the 60s and 70s, groups which were great at spreading peace and harmony through songs of revolution and change included, The Beatles, Peter, Paul and Mary and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young among others. Whereas, today, songs such as John Lennon's Imagine still sits at the top of many charts when in comes to this type music.

When it comes to songs which promote peace and harmony, there are some which are better than others. Still, any performance or song with this intention is often worth checking out. In addition, even one does not necessarily enjoy a performance or song, that does mean that others might not enjoy same. As such, as a means of spreading more peace and love to the world, it is often good to share information about uplifting performances and music among family and friends, whether through song circles or social networking websites.
