What other songs should we have included? What song has the darkest meaning? 15 I Shot The Sheriff, By Bob Marley Some of these might be obvious to you, but chances are, they aren't to a lot of people. This list is here to force you to listen by pointing out the hidden dark meanings in some of your favorite songs. How often does it happen that you really listen to a song you've maybe heard a hundred times before? How often are you surprised by how little of it you understood, or how you never really paid attention to the lyrics? We hear the chorus, we feel the beat and that's it. To completely avoid music would mean locking yourself in a cabin in the woods, or else losing your hearing entirely. For all that, many of us actually spend very little time actually listening to what is happening in the songs we're listening to. The omnipresence of music in our lives means that we don't find it all that unusual when movies have pop soundtracks because it channels our own musical experience. Not all your friend's have seen Minions or Captain America: Civil War, but chances are they've all heard Rihanna's 'Work' or Pharrell's 'Happy'. Popular music, more so than even television and movies, has a way of bringing us into the zeitgeist. Music has the power to unite and divide us, it is perhaps the most influential art on our daily lives. When we're sad, music can bring us up, and when we're happy, a song can pull us down. We tune into the radio or, more likely Spotify, as a means of channeling someone else's experience. It’s a whole thing now.The ethereal magic of music has the power to transport you not only to new worlds, but into inexperienced emotions. Oh, and let’s not forget "Baby Shark." You will need to know it.

I have compiled a list of outstanding songs that have touched me in some way or another while I carried all of my babies. I had a variety of songs that I loved to keep me going, to remind me of what’s important and to keep myself together during the phases of raging pregnancy hormones and labor and delivery. The experience of pregnancy is different for everyone. I personally use music to motivate me in different ways, but certainly through all of my pregnancies there was music.
