Question Influential Songs?

Does anybody know of any songs which have a positive influence or teenagers. Seems that most nowadays are about *******, drug$ and bling.

They are out there but I'm crap at remembering the names of the songs/artists.

Massive Attack had an influence on me during my yoof....

I'm not a chart man, but there is quite a lot of decent stuff on the radio at the moment.

check out www.hmv.co.uk where you can hear samples of the current singles and albums before you decide if it is suitable.....

I'm not a teen by any shakes of the imagination....but for the past 7-8 years or so the same song has cropped up during trying times and meant totally different things each time as per the problem in hand........"Hold On" by Willson Philips.
Its quite incredible how the words change perspective according to the situation.

Oldie, but goodie....White Lines by Grand Master Flash & Melle Mel. Keeps coming back.
Good influence on the teens. Should be re-released again.

Cliff Richard?

Actually, I was listening to the radio yesterday (must have been a blue moon) and I heard a song "Breathe". Sounded so like Cliff Richard, and had very Christian lyrics (see the light etc). Couldn't believe it when the announcer said it was Midge Ure!

Nice to hear someone actually sing for a change.

(After that, I just hit the CD, and found Queen's Greatest Hits in there - aah, bliss - Mama, just killed a man...)

Good suggestions so far. Was thinking more along the lines or R&B/Rap?

Mosh - Eminem
American Idiot - Green Day

I HOPE these two are having an influence on kids, American ones especially.
