I've already nommed, but here's my cull list for people wanting some inspiration for their own noms:
Invincible - Pat Benatar (Song)

We can't afford to be innocent

A power anthem that calls for what may be an uprising. Very uplifting to listen to, and raises lots of questions on what's happening.


Last Ride of the Day - Nightwish (Song)

It's hard to light a candle, easy to curse the dark instead

Very abstract metaphors that would be interesting to concretize! An overall reassuring tune that raises more questions than it answers.


Razorblade - Amaranthe (Song)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jy4s0l5j8j0

Never gonna fail if you fall you get up

My prototypical aspirational song! Very happy and upbeat and above all, determined. Who's going to the top? What are they going to the top of? What are the chains they're breaking free from?
