Music to appeal to 11-year olds

I need advice - I am putting together a set of images for the class on wed on the theme of 'What is important to you?' and I need a background music track. Preferably something with words, a bit thoughtful, but not totally inaccessible to 11-year olds, that I can download tomorrow. Any ideas?

I'd say something like Greenday/Robbie Williams/Chumbawumba.

All 11 yo's are so different!

Shine on You Crazy Diamond. Heard it today - first time for ages and it's such a fab track!

Doesn't it go on for, like, 3 hours?

Couldn't you talk for 3 hours about what's important to you!

Thandk you for all your suggestions. I have a 3-year old, which doesn't help me at all with getting into the mind of an 11-year old.

The idea of the music was that they look at images and listen to the music while they write down their ideas.

I am already using What a Wonderful World in an assembly next week, where I have asked groups of children to illustrate it with images on Photostory to show the whole school.

Off to look for lyrics for your other suggestions now!
