Hey friends,
I wanted to provide you all with some music videos, several of which contain inspirational stories. These are some of my favorites and I hope you enjoy!!
1. James Blunt - Carry you home
http://www.vh1.com/video/play.jhtml?id=1583757&vid=212958
This is a very soothing song and beautiful music video. While this song can take on several different interpretations, It tells the story of a guy who dies in war and leaves his wife behind. James Blunt plays the role of the messenger to the widow who brings her the message of her husband's death along with his locket and picture of her and a letter from him to her.
The concept of carrying you home and "as strong as you are, tender you go" is relating that God can take any of us at any time and we must trust in him in everything we do. When you watch this video in the link above, the imagery of the sky over the ocean with the bright sunlight shining through the clouds symbolizes God's power. I hope this video inspires you, like I was.
2. Dashboard Confessional - stolen
http://www.vh1.com/video/play.jhtml?id=1552227&vid=123230
This song is one of my all time favorites and this video is the ultimate compliment.
The setting on the beach with the rocks and the waves are breathtaking. This video tells the story of two childhood friends who are separated throughout life and always find their ways back to one another. They posess cards which foreshadown their future meetings.....
Stolen to me conveys the idea of first love, and how the first time someone truly falls in love, a piece of their heart is usually always stolen away by their first love. They will never be forgotten...."You are the best one, of the best ones, we all look like we feel"
3. Coldplay - The scientist
http://www.vh1.com/video/play.jhtml?id=1572206&vid=21347
This classic song tells of the science of the chase and first meeting....
It adresses "nobody said it was easy" talking about the science that guys need to master of meeting the perfect girl. The music video is played entirely in reverse which I am interpreting as him looking back on his life and his mind and searching for meaning and love.
"Im sorry, you dont know how lovely you are" is one of the best lines in any song I know.
4. Colbie Caillat - Realize
http://www.vh1.com/video/play.jhtml?artist=2575099&vid=203269
"Take time to realize, That your warmth is crashing down on in
Take time to realize that I am on your side, Didn't I, didn't I tell you"
Inspirational song about finding one's soulmate. This is a very simple music video showing her and a guy struggling in their relationship to compromise and find truth.
5. The Fray -Over my head
http://www.vh1.com/video/play.jhtml?vid=60180&artist=1946832
I never knew, I never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queueTo turn and run
when all I needed was the truth
This song is another one of my all time favorites, and I interpret the video to mean that when people fall in love, in a way they gain the innocence of a child. This song is very accurate from a guy's perspective and the image of " 8 seconds left in overtime" conveys that even in the most unlikely times, the girl is on his mind...

1. Mark Owen - Alone without you
2. Good luck joes - middle of me
