When you've been fighting for it all your life,
You've been struggling to make things right,
That's how a superhero learns to fly,
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power,
For this July issue, the SOUP offices have been filled to the brim with all things heroic and brave. From the everyday superstars that make our lives better at every turn to the simply outstanding ones who never fail to rescue us from the danger that lurks within. Those forces of nature have also flown their way into our Playlist to leave us with a superpowered range of tracks to motivate and inspire you!
So dig out your cape, put your underwear on over your fancy go-getter tights and settle in to listen while reading our latest issue of SOUP. The songs our writers have found are bound to get you in the mood to face any challenge in your life head-on and be your own special kind of hero. Just please.... don't do what our favourite Dragon did and get yourself locked in a phone box while trying to change into a sequined jumpsuit. It took hours for the Ministry to extract her again, and no one wants that now, do we? If you enjoy our writer's choices, don't forget to let us know. You may just earn a jewel or two for posting in our Common Room thread!
The format is easy. It's listed in this order: song - artist - SOUPer who submitted the song.
