    This is one of the music videos I find that has a powerful messege and a powerful video also. The singing isn't the best, and there is much violence in the video. But...it captivated me. At the end the boy makes the best choice. He puts the gun back. The end has statistics.

    Metallica - One - YouTube

    One by Metallica. It has such a strong anti-war message, and it's a lot slower than a bunch of their other stuff so it's easier for non-metalheads to get into.

    A lot of Pink Floyd songs have powerful messages, but they're not usually happy or inspiring...
    I love this song! It's so simple, but it's perfect. I wish some people could hear more than "Imagine there's no heaven" and hear what he was trying to say, it's ironic that religion keeps people from seeing a message like peace and tolerance.

    It's also really sad that religion is the reason he's dead.

    I think you'd like this one:

    My favorites:

    1) Taken For Granted--Sia
    2) Doo Wop (That Thing)--Lauryn Hill
    3) Cold Shoulder--Adele
    4) Thank You--Dido
    5) Young and Beautiful--Lana Del Rey
    6) Back to Black--Amy Winehouse
    7) Papa Don't Preach--Madonna
    8) Common Man--Delinquent Habits
    9) Insidiously--Sia
    10) Angel On My Shoulder--Kaskade (ft. Tamra Keenan)
    11) Robyn--Do You Have What It Takes? & Show Me Love
    And one of my new favorites.
    12) Macklemore--Same Love. I almost cried when I saw Mary Lambert and Jennifer Hudson song it on the VMAs. It's such a captivating song.
