Positive affirmations

Thank you JoakoYako for this gem. Cheerful jazz - "Singin' 'bout wounds and how they heal."

Cuban/Spanish but not sure if it's son, slow and dramatic but imbues positive attitude. In Cuba, carreteros travel all over in the heat to make pickups and deliveries. Song is used to pass the time or cheer oneself. "Chapea el monte, cultiva el llano, recoge el fruto de tu sudor."

Translations:  English, Romanian

Cuban/Spanish-language. English translation: "Anyone thinking that life is cruel, there are just bad times, and it will pass. Everybody who thinks that this will never change, this is not so; like the weather, everything changes."

Slow, slightly sad mood but fantastic lyrics - "There's always tomorrow to start over again. . . .I've finally realized that I could be infinitely better than before, definitely stronger."

Translations:  French, Russian

For cartoon-loving subscribers. (You know who you are!!) "Sometimes you’re up and sometimes you’re down. Get your head in the right place."

Translations:  Spanish

This is about a broken heart, so it barely fits this collection . .. "Mopin', mopin', cryin', cryin', you say you're even thinking about dying. Everybody plays the fool, there's no exception." [You're not the only one.]

Translations:  Dutch

Positive thoughts about the future - "We'll be playing and having fun. We'll never feel bad anymore." The following video images add to the peaceful feeling that the song imparts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0C3zgYW_FAM
