I don't know what made my ears perk up, but the other day I really listened to the lyrics of Take That's latest single, and I have to say they are just FABULOUS!
When you're gremlin is getting you down, sing this song to yourself (as Martha Beck might say, a message from your essential self to your social self) - preferably at full volume!
You, you're such a big star to me
You're everything I wanna be
But you're stuck in a hole and I want you to get out
I don't know what there is to see
But I know it's time for you to leave
We're all just pushing along
Trying to figure it out, out, out.
All your anticipation pulls you down
When you can have it all, you can have it all.
So come on, so come on, get it on
Don't know what you're waiting for
Your time is coming don't be late, hey hey
So come on
See the light on your face
Let it shine
Just let it shine
Let it shine.
Stop being so hard on yourself
It's not good for your health
I know that you can change
So clear your head and come around
You only have to open your eyes
You might just get a big surprise
And it may feel good and you might want to smile, smile, smile.
Don't you let your demons pull you down
'Cause you can have it all, you can have it all.
Hey let me know you
You're all that matters to me
Hey let me show you
You're all that matters to me.
Hey let me love you
You're all that matters to me
Hey let me love you
You're all that matters to me
So come on
See the light on your face
Let it shine
Just let it shine
Let it shine.
Better still, watch the video on youtube (click here)
You are so right about this song and thanks for the reminder :)
It was the anchor music for my recent NLP practitioner training and it was a lovely way to be brought back to the training room...and very weird to keep on hearing it on the airwaves afterwards!

Thanks for this. I came across you while looking for inspirational music for an upcoming workshop I'm doing called 50 Ways to Turn Your Life On. I tried to find it on ITunes but no luck. If I can find it on Amazon I'll buy it. Good work you're doing.
All the best
