songs about handicap
 
Hello.
First of all, Happy New Year to you all!
Well, I am working on handicap and disabilities with a class of teenagers, and I would like to know if some of you could advise me some songs dealing with that topic.
I only have found "Ruby Don�t Take Your Love to Town." by Kenny Rogers, but there may be some others, more modern...
Thanks a lot for your help!

This is probably not what you are looking for but it is the first one to come to mind. Not modern but a classic (I am giving away my musical preferences here..)
"Castles made of sand" by Jimi Hendrix Wink
 
 
It basically talks about how things don �t always turn out we plan, the last verse about a handicapped girl has a surprise.....(good to see who �s paying attention)
