It's about the worst of times and getting through that and rising above it. Sometimes it takes a tragedy for something good to come out of it. It's a positive-energy kind of thing. I want to project a positive energy. I think no matter what you write about, you have to convey an element of hope."
Music redommendations mostly in the alternative/modern rock genre. You can also expect some '90s eurodance or hungarian music. Or anything else. :) Information, and facts in the song descriptions come mostly from wikipedia.com, last.fm, and songfacts.com.

Flogging Molly - Revolution
Frontman Dave King explained the song's meaning to Alternative Press
magazine: "It doesn't necessary mean, 'Let's all get together and have a
huge, big revolution.' It's about changing yourself from within. I know
a few people who, in the economic downturn, have lost their jobs and
started doing something completely different. They've tried opening a
restaurant or opening a petting zoo.

Foo Fighters - Walk
The Foo Fighters performed this song at the 2012 Grammy Awards. They won
five Grammys at the ceremony; Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song
for this track, Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance for "White Limo," Best Rock Album for Wasting Light and Best Long Form Music Video for the Foo's documentary Back and Forth.
Grohl said as he accepted the award for Best Rock Performance: "We made
this one in my garage with some microphones and a tape machine. The
human element of making music is what's important. Singing into a
microphone, learning to play your instrument ... It's not about what
goes on in a computer."

Kylie Minogue - In Your Eyes
The video for this song featured an extension of the futuristic theme first introduced in the music video for "Can't Get You Out of My Head" the previous year. Minogue and her artistic director William Baker
had become interested in the street interpretation of robotic, jerky
movements and included this in the video. The costumes also represent
this interest and were described by Baker as being a mix of "hip hop
chic with sci-fi lunacy".

Richard Marx - Right Here Waiting
Marx wrote this song on the road as a love letter to his wife, actress
Cynthia Rhodes. In a 2010 interview, Marx told the Indian newspaper The Indian Express
the story behind the song: "I wrote the song for my wife Cynthia who
was in South Africa shooting for a film. We were not married then and I
wanted to meet her because I had not seen her for a few months. But my
visa application was rejected and when I came back I wrote this song
which was more of a letter from me to her.
It was the fastest song I wrote, in barely 20 minutes. And this was the time when there was no Skype and Social networking so I had to ship the track to her. The song was very personal and was not intended to go public. But my friends pursued me to record it."

fun. - We Are Young
This song
captures the moments of youthful exuberance that come with a memorable
night out - the kind of night you tell stories about for many years to
come. Lead singer Nate Ruess says the lyrics were inspired by one
specific night, after "my worst drinking night of all time." Ruess told Rolling Stone
that he was kicked out of a taxi cab for puking all over it. "The
cabbie was demanding all this money, and all I could do was stand on the
corner with my head against the wall. It took me another day before I
was a functioning adult and could actually write down the verses," he
said.

Bush - Baby Come Home
The song's music video was directed by Todd Stefani, who is the younger
brother of No Doubt singer and Gavin Rossdale's wife, Gwen Stefani. It
was Stefani's first full length video, though the band had worked with
him on a number of occasions previously. Rossdale explained the clip's
concept to Spinner:
"The 'Baby Come Home' video is the story of two people, disconnected
and lost in the city; unable to find the right words to stay together,"
he said. "They find comfort in their passions. It stars Katherine
Cowgill from the Los Angeles Ballet and was filmed in downtown Los
Angeles - the original 'city of dreams.'"

Jack's Mannequin - Release Me
Alternative rock band Jack's Mannequin's third studio album, People and Things
is considered by frontman Andrew McMahon to be a "relationship record."
He explained: "My goal with many of the songs was to strip away the
flowery language and sentiment attached to newer love and replace it
with starker, less blinded language about more binding love. In the time
following the last Jack's album the people in my world were moving in
together, getting married, trying to find 'real jobs' and reconciling
new lives that looked a lot less like youth than some of us cared for."
This is the second single from the album.
This is the second single from the album.
Nickelback - This Means War
Nickelback open their seventh studio album, Here and Now,
with this up-tempo song. Chad Kroeger explained the album title to MTV News: "It's called Here and Now
because it just represents a snapshot in time, a snapshot of who we
were when we made it," he said. "And of all the names we had, it was
better than Wizard Beating."

Adele - Set Fire To The Rain
Many of the songs on 21 such as this one are about the
heartbreaking ending of Adele's first real relationship. She told MTV
News in an interview to plug the album's release: "It broke my heart
when I wrote this record, so the fact that people are taking it to their
hearts is like the best way to recover. 'Cause I'm still not fully
recovered. It's going to take me 10 years to recover, I think, from the
way I feel about my last relationship. It was the biggest deal in my
entire life to date. He made me totally hungry. He was older, he was
successful in his own right, whereas my boyfriends before were my age
and not really doing much. And he got me interested in film and
literature and food and wine and traveling and politics and history, and
those were things I was never, ever interested in. I was interested in
going clubbing and getting drunk."
