10 Positive Songs We Could All Use Right Now
10. Don't Stop - Fleetwood Mac
There has been a lot of documentaries about how hard it was for Fleetwood Mac to make Rumours. With the band members going through personal breakups with other band members, they poured all of their pent-up aggression into their songs, which became rock radio staples. Though not all of them were chipper, "Don't Stop" was a bit of light shining through the inner turmoil.
The writing of Christine McVie is so bouncy and energetic that you can't help but nod along with every single beat. Given that the song was about her separation from bass player John McVie, you'd think that this would be a spite-filled roast, but the real message of the song is to forget the awful things that happened in the past to build a more promising future.
This song seems to be saying that while the dark days may have happened, they are long gone and better days are lying just around the corner. There's no use in dwelling in the past as long as you make sure that you look at the positive in every action you make. In a questionable time that doesn't have a clear end, we must make it a point to never stop thinking about tomorrow.
