Great thread! Well, there are actually a couple of songs, but this is maybe the strongest one... German only I'm afraid, so I've translated it for you. Just to explain: this song celebrates the power of imagination. Now, I don't at all think that our kin identities are "made up" in any way. What we are is as real as anything can be. But for me, imagination is one of the major forces which creates this reality. The world we live in is created by all of us using that force. I can see this, I can feel this within me every single day. I hope that makes sense somehow... anyhow, this song reminds me of that so much.
Here's the lyrics:
The trist sky makes me sick
A heavy gray cloth which almost suffocates the senses
Habituality is visiting me
Didn't charge up for so long, batteries are empty
Entangled in a labyrinth. Oh, I don't see the way any more
I want to leave, I want to get out of here, I want wish-me-something
And a small boy takes me by the hand
He waves at me and grins: Come on, let's get out of here, come, I'll show you something you've forgotten due to all the rationality.
[REFRAIN]
Join me.
Join me into adventure land. For your own journey.
Join me into adventure land. Admission costs rationality.
Join me into adventure land. And do it all your way.
Your imagination gives you a land: the adventure land.
A new shape, playful and wild. Clouds are drawing pictures
The wind is whistling this song where every wish comes through
I invent, I transform with magic force
An army points at me and screams: "You're crazy!"
I stretch out my finger, I enchant, I ban, I have the power
As long as that small boy grins in the mirror
[REFRAIN]
Peter Pan and Captain Hook and 17 fire dragons: You can see it all if you want
Ooh, Thunder birds, ancient screams, angels laughing loud: You can hear it all if you want
You can flip, whiz, fly, you can have the biggest horse
You can dance, stagger, dream and miss school
All of this is possible within you, in your own land
Just dare to be crazy, it's all in your hand
Join me.... [Do you join? Are you part of it?]
Join me onto your own journey.
Join me and do it your way.
[REFRAIN]
