For a good part of my younger days it was Moon River -- "I'm crossing it in style someday".
Having accomplished that in many ways, and at this age, any of Kris Kristofferson's reflective, looking back songs works.

I just realize that when I hear songs like Moon River, I never (and I say this the upmost respect) associate them with young people. Not realizing it was young people who listened to them when they came out!!
Isn't that interesting. Thank you for the new thought.

I have to have something very motivational, too.

@Poppies Have always felt I somehow contributed to this song. The three Fogerty brothers' children had a play day with my kids one day so they could go to a Giants game and enjoy watching Willie Mays play centerfield a little before John released this song.

But the whole Rocky IV soundtrack could also be the answer for me.

It was at times my theme song, when measured in the days and weeks it was stuck in my head. I was in an exercise group that met for some years at a gym, working out to Love Shack by the B-52's. I felt at the peak of health in those days, just full of energy and vitality, so I guess it does belong on my short list.

Take a Picture - Filter
Having been a severe alcoholic until my early 40's, I heard this song in 2002, (released in 1999) and without knowing what it was about, several lines resonated with me.
Could you wanna take my picture, cause I won't remember
I feel like a new born
hey Dad, what do you think about your son now?
During my drinking years I embarrassed myself often and was ashamed of my lack of self-control.
Only after stopping drinking (2001) was I able to reflect on a wasted life up to that point.
For me the song shows triumph - Sobriety - over adversity - Alcoholism.

I can, regretfully identify rather closely to your days of shame and being out of control. It's still taking time for me to say...it is what it is, time to move on
Perfect song MrGusman

This... It's very "me". There's lots of others but this one has always spoken to me.

I'm also pretty chill, just observing everything taking it in and just trying to breathe.

Not my overall life theme song. It’s just playing this evening as I was studying (I usually play ‘gym music’ when studying at night).
Let me give it some thought what my real life theme song is. :)

I was trying to find an occasion where that would not be appropriate, walking into church maybe?
But no . I would still use it there .

That's a good one!!!
I actually use that one when I'm getting ready to do something hard of physically taxing..
So you'd have that song in the background wherever you went,??
