I should be able to get there again this week. After being on Gimp Girl in SL for a while, I finally signed up to this site as well.

I am a huge fan of Johnny Crescendo, the disability rights singer and activist. My absolutely favorite song of his is "You Don't Need Sympathy When You've Got Soul," followed closely by "Wheelchair Waltz."

They're both here, along with another song that some folks really like: "Strong Woman:" ("Sympathy" is just titled "Sympathy.)

I'd like to suggest numb from linkin park. It really advocates being different, being your own person. Maybe not the happy style you're looking for but it really helped me

Oh and also "Don't you feel afraid" from Krezip
Krezip is a dutch band, but it's on youtube ;)

Yes! Something I finally feel like I have the authority to comment on! Well I will list a few of my favorite motivational songs here and see what you think. I don't necessarily think of disability positive or not but most of these songs help me when I need to get motivated. Hope you enjoy!

Unwritten- Natasha Bedingfield

We Can- LeAnn Rimes (from legally blonde two!)

Remember the Name- Fort Minor

You've Got a Friend- James Taylor

Everybody -- Ingrid Michaelson

**Everything Is Everything- Lauryn Hill

What I Am -- Edie Brickell & the New Bohemians

Sunny Came Home- Shawn Colvin

**Get Up, Stand Up/Could you Be Loved-- Bob Marley

the list goes on... and there are many more powerful songs that I like, so if anybody actually reads this and is interested, I would be happy to share more with you

@ Mary, yes that is also a great song that you just reminded me of!

I also bought Tamra Hayden's first album after attending live at the GGC holiday party last year, and still love it! I know she supports this cause so I would like to give her a little shout out as well!
