Even heroes have the right to dream. —John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting, in Superman, 2001.

Timeless classic from Bono/U2. With or Without You

Have You Really Ever Loved a Woman (1995) from the film Don Juan De Marco. Probably the only Bryan Adams song I appreciate.

Probably one of the subtlest songs ever written. Fuck Her Gently by Tenacious D

Yes, classic can be hot, too. (Nicole Scherzinger, marry me.)

Another classic from Creed, One Last Breath (2009)

Richard Ashcroft doing The Verve’s “Bittersweet Symphony” with Coldplay at London’s Live8 Concert in 2005. Very apt song for the crusade to end poverty. Six years on since this performance, we are still asking: When will the rich world truly make their ideologies and promises to end world hunger and poverty real, way beyond the rhetorics and the chains of capitalistic greed? G8 and Security Council, we’re all looking at you!
