Giving thanks for this season and looking forward to next (song thread)

[bantamlaker]

Now that it is officially off-season it’s time for a music thread. We were all disappointed in the way the season ended but we have much to look forward to. Pick a song that says something about how you feel about this year’s team, your hopes for next season, last night’s disappointment, Sarah’s announcement, etc. As usual with BY music threads there is a lot of leeway here.
These lyrics from I Can See Clearly Now seem fitting for today:
”Oh, yes I can make it now the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is that rainbow I've been praying for
It's gonna be a bright
Bright sunshiny day
Look all around, there's nothing but blue skies
Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies”

This season, the team exceeded the "world's" expectations (NCAAT) but not the UConn Nation's, we wanted it all.
Elite 8! Final Four!


mic drop!

Love, love, love the music threads. Always consider them a challenge.

This motivational pop song reminds us that it’s never too late to shine. Even if you’re feeling worn down by life, there is brilliance inside of you just waiting to burst forth.

 

[Aluminny69]

This song is great to listen to after going through difficult times. It reminds you that even after the darkest times, the sun is coming to bathe everything in a new light.

This song is dedicated to our newest Husky.

This song is about the end of a relationship, but it’s really applicable to life in general. The things in life that are hard to go through actually forge us in fire. They help us to become stronger moving forward. (Note the Basket makes a cameo appearance.)

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
I'm feeling good

This one is for Nika and Aaliyah. They certainly gave us their blood, sweat and tears for four years and they made us very happy by choosing to come to Storrs from Croatia and Canada.

I hope the Huskies enjoy their summer, and that Nika and Aaliyah enjoy their few weeks before W training camp. Plus I love the Kinks.

So many roads I tell you
So many roads I know
So many roads, so many roads
Mountain high, river wide
So many roads to ride
So many roads, so many roads

I'm thinking a lot about Shade - she is such a positive person and I'm sure she's having her own moments reflecting on the last 2 games. Her tenacity reminds of Shea-dawg and I 100% believe she will be one of the greats we've had. Fist pump all the way to a natty next season!

The real title: The New Jerusalem. Inspirational

I was looking for something a little less well-known from EWF, but this is just so appropriate I couldn’t resist.

COOL!! i’ve never heard anything quite like that — punk meets reggae.
