Music is known to transcend boundaries and merge people, culture and society.

Music is to soul what food is to body

Music heals us , charges the nerves of the brain thereby making us feel calm and happy . Here I am listing few songs which can help to enhance our mood , aid in lifting our spirits and hope.

1 . Cheap thrills -Sia

I play this song on loop. It has got a vintage charm to it . The lyrics talk about a person who is more precious than diamond or gold thus valuing the person more than materialistic things which have little shelf life .

2 . Iktara- Rekha Bharadwaj

This song from the movie 'Wake up sid' is a beautiful rendition in her voice. Our mind wanders in different directions over which we have no control . It is relatable to whichever emotions we go through. Its subtle take on the ever changing thoughts of the mind which seeks answers from the heart. When the mind and heart never go in the same direction .

Oo re manva tu toh bavra hain, tu hi jaane tu kya sochta hain , kyu dikhaye sapne tu sote -jaagte, goonja sa koi iktaara iktaara

3. Girl on fire - Alicia Keys

This song is a must have on every girl's playlist, it's got a great rhythm which starts off on a low note and keeps rising once it picks up pace . Its about self empowerment and that we must have confidence in ourselves . Every individual is unique and has got hidden potential which he must unleash by self belief and commitment .

4. O rahi - Imtehan

This song stars the handsome hero Vinod Khanna which says that we should keep going no matter whatever obstacles we face . Obstacles are just another set of challenges that we need to overcome which show our true potential. The lyrics go as

Ruk jaana nahi tu kahi haar ke , kaanton se milenge saaye bahaar ke , oo rahi o rahi o rahi o rahi

5 . Ekla chalo re - Amitabh Bachhan

This poem is penned by the great RABINDRANATH TAGORE and sung in the powerful voice of Amitabh Bachhan. Ekla chalo means walk alone . When the entire world is against us. We should believe in ourselves and walk alone even if no one supports us . We should remember that we are enough to back us and we are an entire world in our ourselves , with self confidence and inner belief we can stand on our feet without looking for support anywhere else but ourselves. Its sung in Bengali language and thats the beauty of it

6 . Roar - Katy Perry

Roar is about a girl who wants to break off limitations and not be dictated by anyone . She wants to live life on her own terms and be free in her choices. It applies to every person out there who doesn't want to get bossed . Its strives us to make our own decisionsand not align ourselves with what others think. Its high pitched song which is a great mood changer.

7 . Tu chal -Pink

This is yet another empowering song from the movie Pink in the voice of Amitabh Bachhan. It delves deep and makes us question why does our mood depend on the situation that surrounds us. We are individuals who must live on our terms . Nothing can bog us down , every dog has his day and till then we must discover ourselves, bring out the hidden potential in us to make a mark in this world .

Music is a secret weapon which can win over the evil enemies of within like depression, anxiety, confusion, sorrowness. What makes music special ? The rhythm, instruments, voice, or just lyrics ? well its the confluence of everything above that blends in together to uplift our mood.
