Girl Power Music...any suggestions?

[lucy106]

A little background... I have a few girlfriends who have recently gone through some pretty crappy breakups and times in their lives. Recently they came to work with a cd full of "break up" songs. You know the type, poor me, he screwed me,blah blah blah!!! Well I am trying to tell them screw that crap they need some "GO ME" music. So I am putting together a cd for them full of girl power and just overall inspirational type music. Here is what I have so far:

One of my all-time favorites for getting back up on your feet! Also awesome for working out on a stairmaster:

 

It's my life - No Doubt

 

 

Another one awesome for realizing what you went through and that you did the right thing by walking away:

 

Ex-factor - Lauryn Hill

 

I made a CD like this for some girlfriends in the past. I don't know if I can find it now though... I could ask them what was on it

[NotYourAverageDW]

This is such a great idea. What about:

 

"Stronger" - Kanye West (weird song, I know)

"Girl From The Gutter" - Kina

"Who Do You Think You Are" - Spice Girls

"Irreplaceable" - Beyonce

"Survivor" - Destiny's Child

 

 

 

***MUST HAVES***

 

"No Cry" - Nina Simone

"Not Goin Cry" - Mary J Blige

"Ain't Got No....I Got Life" - Nina Simone (Remix and Original)

"Round and Round- Part 2 {Remix}" - Jonell ft Method Man, Def Jam

"Got to Be" - Desiree

"U and Ur Hand" - Pink

[lucy106]

You guys rule!! I knew I could count on you!

[NotYourAverageDW]

"Round and Round - Part 1" -Jonell is great too.
