Out of the hundreds of millions of songs out there, which ones actually make you stop and think not only about your life, but about the rest of the world as well? Which ones make you ask the big questions and lose yourself in?
The Top Ten
1 To Believe - Jackie Evancho

Composed by Jackie's Uncle, a song with the most beautiful lyrics you will hear or see. Arranged by David Foster, this song will bring a tear to your eyes and warmth to your Heart... It describes the possibility of peace in the world, where no child suffers..

Jackie feels that one should believe in their dreams and pursue them. Believe in oneself and believe in the world around. Good will prevail!

A young lady's song about appreciating what you have and trying to help those in need. Heartfelt and earnest.

Makes you think that there is hope for the world after all.

2 Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin
3 Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen

This song is just brilliant. Musically, lyrically all while being perfectly executed by the band.

I love this song the first time I listened to it.

Such a great combo between rock and thoughtful music

Masterpiece and timeless.

4 The Show Must Go On - Queen

It's especially powerful once you hear the story behind it. This was one of Freddie Mercury's last songs, and the recording was done on the first take because he didn't have it in him to do another one. Yet his voice sounded as strong as ever. The show must go on.

A classic by queen. Nobody is immune to this song, it's what everybody has to say at some point in their life

5 Baba O'Riley - The Who

This song makes me think HARD. But then as always, due to the excitement at the end, I smile.

6 Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

I just remember sitting in my dorm room like it was yesterday, listening to this song and thinking about where I've been and where I'm going in life. There have been multiple times WYWH has provoked so much emotion it has brought me to tears. Beautiful song, perfectly orchestrated.

7 The Unforgiven - Metallica
8 Beautiful - Eminem

Love this song! It really makes you think

This song changed my life forever

That's a really great song

It such a cool song

9 Hallowed Be Thy Name - Iron Maiden
10 One - Metallica

Explains the horrors of war and what can happen to soldiers afterwards. Deep stuff.

Pacvader said it all. Excellent song the goes strong inside your heart.

The Contenders
11 November Rain - Guns N Roses
12 Eleanor Rigby - The Beatles

"All the lonely people, where do they all belong? "

13 Heaven and Hell - Black Sabbath
14 21 Guns - Green Day

When you hear that term, it breaks your heart. Someone has been torn from their family and friends without getting to say goodbye

Heck yes believe it it's here the best song in the world right here boys

It is a sing that can encourgae you to do somthing or to make you thing of memories or bad thing anything really.

I really like this song.

15 Time - Pink Floyd

This should be like number 1

16 Imagine - John Lennon

I LOVE this song, It makes me think about how the world is made, and who we really are.
This song should definitely be here, It rocks. Also, John Lennon's voice just makes it even more magical, The Beatles is my favourite band of all time, And John Lennon was in it, Until he got shot by a little darn cabbage head.

If everyone could just take a moment to consider these powerful words, then imagine what the world could truly be.
The world could use a change.
You can become that change in this world by being one of those few people who take a moment to consider the words of this song.

I adore the Beatles, but John Lennon, even alone, is one of the best in my book. This song just opens your eyes,and when you listen it puts you in a kid of trance. "Imagine" just opens your mind and imagination.

Love this one. If only everyone took a second to imagine what John says

17 Hey You - Pink Floyd

Beautiful song.

18 The Bard's Song (In the Forest) - Blind Guardian
19 Mad World - Michael Andrews

Well it's true; we do live in a mad, mad world

This song hits me in the core! Makes you stop and look around for a while, and at the same time takes you back to every surreal moment in your life.

This song takes you deeper into the hard times of life. It makes me think about what my point in life is. I love this song.

I listen to this song every night before I go to sleep and it just makes me think hard! I love it!

20 Day After Day - Badfinger
21 Hurt - Johnny Cash
22 Ready to Fall - Rise Against

Rise Against is one of my favorite bands, and they have tons of other phenomenal songs, but this one drives a nail through my heart when it reminds me how bad a shape our world is in especially the music video. Remember, we've got one planet, on chance.

"Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong"

It really proves a point, we can't go on living like this or we will fall of that rooftoop!

23 Immigrant Song - Led Zeppelin
24 Young - Hollywood Undead
25 Survive - Rise Against

Amazing, just amazing. Perfectly describes life. Amazing chorus, as well.

"Life for you, (who we are) has been less than kind
So take a number, (who we are) stand in line
We've all been sorry, (who we are) we've all been hurt
But how we survive, (who we are) is what makes us who we are"...

Another winner by Rise Against, with a chorus that could fuel your motives for a lifetime
