Casa by Natalia y La Forquetina

I’m Alive by Celine Dion

We Are Amazing by Desmond is Amazing

“I wrote the song ‘We Are Amazing’ as an empowering anthem to help LGBTQ+ youth feel proud of who they are and recognize their incredible worth. My goal was to spread a positive, uplifting message that could boost the self-esteem and confidence of LGBTQ+ young people facing societal challenges and marginalization.” – Desi Napoles

Hello by Adele

“Though it’s not a conventionally upbeat song, I think it’s so beautiful how it’s an ode to her past self and the growth she’s experienced to be able to extend empathy and love toward her younger self.  It”s also especially meaningful to me because she wrote it when she was 25, and though her life was in such a different place than mine is now, it reminds me of all the places one can be in in their 20s and how it all works out OK in the end.” – Livia Caligor
