《Counting Stars》来自美国流行摇滚乐队One Republic（共和时代），发行于2014年。歌曲先是在木吉他伴奏下慵懒舒缓，之后突然加入贝斯和鼓点，瞬间变得激情动感。歌词用反讽的手法告诉人们，生活不是纸醉金迷，而应该触及灵魂，思考生命的意义。无论现实如何让人绝望，我们都应该勇敢坚定的走自己的路。
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars, yeah we'll be counting stars
I see this life like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
And my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and you shall find
Old, but I'm not that old
