Today for me its Some B52s.

 

the lyrics are so deep and meaningful.

 

Planet Claire has pink air
All the trees are red
No one ever dies there
No one has a head

 

 

 

 

Love this group for something alternative to my normal playlist.

The lyrics remind me of the red forest in 12 monkeys, the tv series.

 

very creative use of a walkie talkie ?

Today im going to be doing that pesky housework thats been needed to be done since last week.

 

I do love to wiggle my backside and get down to something with a bit of life while running the vac round and exorcising the demons of dirt and dust.

 

Therefore along with other special and specific tracks.

Music is one of the very few things that can break through my walls and truly let me feel.  I have music playing as often as I can. 

 

This thread is one I look forward to daily. I’ve discovered new music and rediscovered some music I had not listened to in quite some time. 

 

At work, I’ve switched to instrumental, I find I can’t concentrate as well with lyrics  pulling my attention. I’ve really been enjoying Ludovico Einaudi’s piano pieces.  Really anything melodic that builds up to a good crescendo then eases me back out, I’ve been crushing on and queuing up. 
 

Now back  to the soundtrack of my life. I hope you all have a great day and enjoy your playlists. 
 

*hugs*

Me too!   You're right that there is so much good music to be discovered.  

 

I also find that music with sung lyrics can be a distraction if I was working as I would be listening too intently and be lose my focus on the task at hand.  I love instrumental music.

We just got home from an Emmylou Harris concert, and it was outstanding!  I've loved her music since the late 70's.  Her voice still rings like a bell and her band was great.  I'm so glad that she is still around to perform, and I'm still around to hear her.

Thanks MaryMary. I enjoyed the music. My French is not very strong, but enough that I understood the general premise of the song.

Today i have been really Nostagic.

 

There is a story to this song if i may indulge you for a few minutes of your time.

 

Maybe about 5 years ago and some. I had an online freind.

This pal of mine was in the Navy During the Vietnam war. he use to spot for the ships guns which would sometimes mean going ashore to seek out the enemy emplacements. Some of the storys he told me were quite horrific

He indroduced me to this song. As when they was heading back to the states this was the song they always use to play over the loudspeakers and it stuck in his mind. because of this i got indroduced to it and it always stuck with me and it is also an awesome track.

I lost touch with my freind. I do not know if he is now still alive or gone. I think he had some issues that the war in vietnam gave him and he never really recoved. I have tryed to get back in touch but never had any luck.

 

Therefore This is for you P if your still of this world or even if you have gone. I miss you and im sorry we fell out of touch.

I love it!  So many songs that burned their way into my mind as this hippie sniffed the tear gas in anti war demonstrations.  FM radio was just finding an audience as most were listening to AM.  Somehow music brings those days back like nothing else.  "The times are still a'changing".  May dawn come soon.

 

Hugs,

somewhat enigmatic but really striking lyrics. It speaks about futility of trying to keep things the same.

Wait a while

We’ll figure out our lives 

Hold your breath

The wolves are in disguise 

Don’t need your dirty hands 

Don’t need to take a chance 

Go stand in behind the fence 

Can you feel that bleeding neck 

Can you feel that now 

 

Close the door 

Take a walk around 

Hold your breath 

In these rivers you might drown 

All alone you live inside 

It’s alone you came and went 

In the shadows the bounty rides

A love that makes no sense 

It makes no sense...

 

You could beat a cat in the rain 

Losing all that you gain

Working hard but you know 

All things will change 

 

The world it’ll spin and stand trial 

While they spit and draw blood 

from your smile 

We’ll all make it back to the stars 

But it’s ours for a little while 

 

Oo oo ooo ooo ooooo

Oo oo ooo ooo ooooo

 

Brace your heart 

In this rich and colored plinth 

Hold your breath 

It’s a key and a killer in your hands

All I want is bells and whistles 

All I want is fancy dreams 

And you live and learn 

And soon discern

Nothing’s ever what it seems 

Never what it seems 

 

Beat a cat in the rain 

Losing all that you gain

Working hard but you know 

All things will change 

 

The world it’ll spin and stand trial 

While they spit and draw blood 

from your smile 

We’ll all make it back to the stars 

But it’s ours for a little while 

 

Oo oo ooo ooo ooooo

Oo oo ooo ooo ooooo

      https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2024/04/russian-poetry-competition-bans-transgender-applicants/     Everyone in Russia knows that Putin hates LGBT people, so every segment of society gets on board with the Leader's viewpoint, or they risk his wrath.  Sounds a lot like Florida, doesn't it?   Carolyn Marie

      happy trans birthday! I can't speak personally on the subject, but I hope hormones bring you the changes you're looking for <3 
    • MaeBe
      That’s super healthy, to see that something that becomes common has less effect on you and that you are able to decipher these feelings.   Sadly, this trend tends to only deaden good feelings as we tend not to let bad feelings attenuate the same way.   I have noticed less euphoria, but still feel the dysphorias that I have. Sometimes the good sneaks in and reminds me, but often time it’s just me seeing myself in the mirror and being comfortable about what I see when embracing my realized self. I may not get the same buzz I once did, but I don’t feel incongruous when looking at a more “drab” reflection.    Wishing you strength, you are amazing!

      Congratulations! and Happy Trans Birthday @LittleSam! That is such a BIG milestone.  I can still remember walking out of my clinic with my first HRT presciption.  I was on Cloud-9.  Wishing you all the best in the start of your new Journey!

      maebe thank you I try to be. I thank God for blessings, try to share them, beg forgiveness for my shortcomings n vow to try to do better...2 priests have said no, God doesn't condemn you just for being trans...but apparently evangelicals do   I shall vtry dear thank you  
    • MaeBe
      Meet him at the being good to others part of Christianity. At the heart of it, there are excellent tenets of the faith. Those that condemn are judging, Jesus would have us be selfless; stone casting and all that. Are you a good person? Are you putting good into the world? If your gender is an issue for God, let God judge. In the mortal realm, let your actions be heard. 
    • missyjo
      and just fi sweeten it..I'm catholic n he hasn't been for years..he's evangelical..whatever that is
    • MaeBe
      Let’s stick to cite-able fact. Most of my posts have been directly in relation to LGBTQ+ rights as it pertains to P2025 and I have drawn direct links between people, their quotes, and their agenda. I have made reference to the cronyism that P2025 would entail as well, by gutting, not cutting, broad swathes of government and replacing it with “conservative warriors” (I can get you the direct quote, but rest assured it’s a quote). All this does is constantly force the cogs to be refitted, not their movement. To say that agencies have directly defied a President is a bit much, the EPA did what Trump told them to do at the direct harm to the environment, the department of agriculture did the same by enacting the administrations forced move to KC which decimated the USDA.      How about Betsy DeVoss for Education? Or Bannon for anything? What about the revolving Chief of Staff position that Trump couldn’t stay filled? Or the Postmaster General, who did much to make the USPS worse?   Let’s not mix politics with racism, sexism, or any other ism. Because Trump made mainly white, male, appointments—many of them not, arguably, people fit for service—or unwilling to commit to term. I can argue this because, again, he’s up for election and will do what he did before (and more of the same, his words).   Please delineate how the selected diversity appointments have negatively affected the US, other than being black, women, or queer? Representation matters and America benefits when its people are inspired and empowered.

      When I first started figuring things out, I got a lot more euphoria. Every time a friend would use he/they pronouns for me, I'd get this bubbly feeling, and seeing myself look masculine made me really happy. Dysphoric state felt more normal, so I guess I noticed the pain it caused me less.   Now, it's more just that my pronouns and such things feel natural, and dysphoria is a lot stronger -- I know what's natural, so experiencing the opposite is more jarring than everything. The problem is, most of my natural experiences are from friends, and I rarely get properly gendered by strangers, much less by my family. I've found myself unable to bind in months due to aches, colds,, and not wanting to risk damage.    It partially makes me want to go back to the beginning of my journey, because at least then I got full euphoria. I'm pretty sure it'll be like this until I medically transition, or at the very least get top surgery (you know all those trans dudes online with tiny chests? Not me, unfortunately). It's a bit depressing, but at least I know that, eventually, there's a way out of this.
    • RaineOnYourParade
      Major mood, right here ^^^    I've listened to Lumineers to a long time (a major portion of it by osmosis via my mom), so that is almost painfully relatable
    • RaineOnYourParade
      As for getting a button-up/formal pants suit, you can try to talk to her more -- Cis women in tuxes have worn tuxes in recent years, after all, (for example, Zendaya) so it can still be a relatively safe topic. For jumpsuits, I'd recommend going with a simple one with a blazer, if you can -- this'll make it look overall more masculine. There's a lot of good brands, but going for one without a lot of extra glitz on it will make it look less feminine under a blazer. I don't know many specific brands though since I usually just get my stuff from chain stores, sorry :<   When it comes to your hair, if you can't cut it, you can look up tutorials on fluffing it up instead. If you can pull it off, it can look a lot shorter and more androgynous instead!
