Aware Songs

Is it just me or are there really so many “aware” songs out there in
the past few years… And so many good ones at that too.

From self-aware songs:

• Meant To Live by Switchfoot
• One Thing by Finger Eleven
• Welcome To My Life by Simple Plan
• Harder To Breathe by Maroon 5
• Float On by Modest Mouse

To world-aware songs:

• This Ain’t A Scene, It’s An Arms Race by Fall Out Boy
• We Believe by Good Charlotte
• Heard The World by O.A.R.
• Waiting On The World To Change by John Mayer
• If Everyone Cared by Nickelback
• High School Never Ends by Bowling For Soup

And saving my newest favorite for last:

• In Mumbai, Waiting For A Miracle by Raghu Dixit

There is no feeling, except the extremes of fear and grief, that does
not find relief in music. — T.S. Eliot
