Ok so i stole this idea from another board i frequent...

If you were given the choice of only be able to listen to 10 songs for the rest of your life... what would they be? Being the diverse group of people we have here this could be really interesting.

mine are as follows;

in no particular order;

One Week-Barenaked Ladies

No Shelter-Rage Against the Machine

Indestructible- Disturbed

Maniacal Renderings-Jon Oliva's Pain

The Reason-Hoobastank

Beautiful Tragedy-In This Moment

Hallowed be thy Name-Iron Maiden

Life's Been Good-Eagles/Joe Walsh

Gears of War-Megadeth

Bring the Noise-Public Enemy/Anthrax version

This is hard because I love so much music and only ten songs so I will say that to avoid boredom setting in I have selected some of the longest individual pieces around - excluding the long version of Get Ready by Rare Earth.

1) Torn between four Tone Poems by Richard Strauss - Eine Alpensinfonie, Also Sprach Zarathustra, Till Eulenspiegels Lustige Streiche or Tod und Verklärung.

2) Indian Lady by Don Ellis - Live version from the Autumn album (17:18 - take the long cuts)

3) Maria - Maynard Ferguson (the first recording - mid sixties not the disco mid eighties)

4) Gethsemane - Doc Severinsen

5) My Way - Frank Sinatra

6) Redemption - Blood, Sweat and Tears

7) September - Earth, Wind and Fire

8) Anything by Chicago (except from that one album where they foolishly avoided using the horns - their signature sound) - OK, Searching For So Long*/Mononucleosis - the live cut from the Chicago/Earth, Wind and Fire tour - Lee never sounded better!

9) Late in the Evening - Paul Simon

10) The Last Resort - The Eagles (so many others)

It would have been easier to select the 10 I would never want to hear again!

Love ya,

Sally

*Possibly more meaningful to me now than when I was in denial.

:blink: I tried to do this and can't. Way more than 10 songs, and I'll bet it would change radically every month or so.

S. Chrissie -- Mahler? Yes! I love Mahler 5. 3's OK but I prefer 2 to 3, personally.

<-- geek.

Marley and Peter Tosh, eh, Leigh? I fill in on keyboards and bass sometimes with a reggae band which is led by a former guitarist for The Sattalites. If you watch

he's the one who says 'alright' at around 1:36.

Continuing on the theme of mildly famous musicians I have played with, I see Cute Is What We Aim For on Charlotte's list. I went to elementary school with their guitarist, and in high school played with him in a ska band, before he left us for fame.

Now, ten songs for me? The obvious choice first...

Oceansize - One Out of nOne

Alexander Zemlinsky - Lyric Symphony

Damiera - Vollacaia

Percy Grainger - Lincolnshire Posy

Gavin Castleton - Bad Rabbits

¡Forward, Russia! - Twelve

Minus the Bear - Hey! Is That a Ninja Up There?

As Tall As Lions - Ghost of York

Frederic Chopin - Fantasie-Impromptu

and... the Leekspin song.

I realize that, for the most part, I'm picking songs not too many people are familiar with. If anyone is interested, I can email out a zip file of my top 10 list.

The Molgera battle song?!? This was one of my favourite pieces ever, some four years ago! My best friend and I would sing it a cappella on bus rides! I started arranging it for my high school wind ensemble, once upon a time!

Instant points for that one, Ivan.

Tom Sawyer - Mindless Self Indulgence

Meadows of Heaven - Nightwish

Lost in Hollywood - System of a Down

Clocks - Coldplay

      You're welcome. I wanted to post something new that I haven't posted yet.   
    • Ashley0616
      That's a lot of weight congratulations. I was almost about to become a K9 handler in the Air Force back in 2006 but I found out that once you get promoted to E7 you lose your dog. You can get it at E4 as long as they need them but it is usually E5. If you don't understand military jargon, I'll help you out. I didn't want to join the Marines because I actually like to be treated better. I was Security Forces and performed security, law enforcement and everything you could think of such as convoying, fire fights, search pit just to name some. It also helped that I had family that was Air Force and I went through Air Force Junior Reserves Officer Training Corps so I knew the basics of Air Force already. That's awesome that you have goals in life. I hope you get it.

      Not sure what category I'd call this—don't care—I like American music. Any American. Thanks, @Ashley0616
    • Ashley0616
      @FelixThePickleManTrust me I know the feeling. I didn't have the guts to come out that young. It wasn't well known back then. I knew I felt completely wrong. I knew for sure my parents weren't going to help me so I hid it all. It hurt a lot to live a lie. I always pretended to be the female that I was dating. I prayed and cried every night. It's not easy because bullying has always been around and the teachers didn't really care about that stuff back then.    You can make it through this. I would like to help you out just like I have with previous members. It's going to be up to you if you would like it. It's not going to happen overnight I can promise you that. For every negative thing or comment it typically needs double the number for positive things to feel better about yourself. You unfortunately are living with your parents which they are getting used to you coming out too. Sometimes coming out you're going to lose a lot of support. I lost over 40 family members but I'm happier than what I was. I still look at the mirror and still have my issues which is typical because we know our own faults and short comings. You have to value yourself. There isn't going to be an easy life. We all face many obstacles and it's harder for the ones that have something else to deal with.   We aren't in the same boat as some people are in yachts, cruise ships, and so on. There are perks and cons to each one. The best thing is to find something that you are great at and focus on that while trying to improve on the little things. Some have rituals everyday such as a new Bible verse that is related to what you are going through or a poem there are many poems for everything.

      G'day @Vivelacors   Welcome to Transgender Pulse Forums, I hope you find this place as informative and helpful as I do.   Best wishes, stay positive, and safe,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
    • Mmindy
      Tonight we will split a thick cut ribeye steak grilled outside, along with fresh asparagus shoots, apple sauce, and fresh cucumber salad. The steak has already been seasoned, wrapped in butcher paper resting to room temperature. The cucumber salad is blended and resting in the refrigerator.   Tomorrow's dinner will be Chicken drumsticks (skin on) that are already marinating in Zesty Italian dressing. Tomorrow I will smoke the drumsticks with apple-wood smoke, before crisping them up on the grill. We'll also have grilling beans, and garlic mashed potatoes.   The outside kitchen is now open.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Clutching of pearls because people that don’t “align with society” party to excess is part of the problem, not a symptom of one. Cis-het folks are out there airing their sexuality, reveling in their debauchery, and displaying general anti-social behaviors all the time but aren’t reacted to in the same manner.   The most important T in this conversation is Time. As long as there is not a fascist, violent, crackdown on LGBTQ+ people, our exposure to society (at least in Western society) will continue to move it towards our acceptance.

      I have three within a two block walk! You'd think I was in Seattle already! The one I have always gone to is the quintessential "local coffee shop" though; local artist's works on the wall, drinks named after customers and local geography, and it's run down just enough to feel homey. Also, I can bring my 20oz coffee mug in and get it filled for the price of a small! :D
    • MaeBe
      Eczema was my excuse. *high fives!*   It's lovely when you get a nice interaction like that. Yesterday I got a "you're so sweet" from a man who I held the door for, I don't think he saw all of me until after he'd walked past so he only picked up on my outfit and body appearance. I was so paranoid that I used too male of a voice in return, but c'est la vie. I felt really nice after it though.   I tend to try to put in a lot of effort. If I wear make up, it has to be perfect, etc. I put this pressure on myself because I, too, don't have a chance in h-e-double hockey sticks at "passing".  So, I try not to make myself an "easy target".
    • KathyLauren
      It's just the opposite here.  There are a ton of local boutique coffee roasters in this area.  There is no excuse for bad coffee here, which is why I am always surprised when I get mediocre truck-stop coffee in restaurants.

      It’s a huge difference, the laser has done wonders. I still have some stragglers, but I hope a few more sessions to try to zap those. Mostly what’s left are the white/blonde hairs, they still need a shave but they don’t really cause me much dysphoria.   I do use makeup, I barely go out without liner and mascara these days. Don’t tend to do a full face, but when I go for a little coverage I use tinted moisturizer and a little concealer under setting powder. Here’s me today, with about as much makeup as I go out with (forgive me the wings, I struggled today…), I went and got my hair done, so I had to look good for the ladies.

      This is me as well. I wear dresses and skirts exclusively.  That is pretty obvious.  When I get misgendered, it's not by mistake.
