I thought of this song because I never feel really sure how I sound when I'm singing. The Hearfones that Mindy suggested made an incredible difference when I'm practicing, but the add a funny resonance if I wear them while recording.
On a side note (pun intended), I absolutely recommend Mindy Pack http://www.mindypack.com/ for vocal coaching. She is absolutely amazing, she literally changed my life! I was absolutely 100% convinced that I could never sing and she proved me wrong. It is so much fun! I can't even explain how much I enjoy it!
Anyway, on a completely different note (another pun intended LOL) - "how can I be sure" also applies to the current environment. It's like no one can be sure what this administration is going to do next. And even more so for us transgender people. He has nominated and assigned so many anti-transgender people to his cabinet and staff, it's frightening!!
I called Utah senator Mike Lee's office yesterday to ask that he not support Betsy DeVos for Education Secretary (so painful after working on Misty K. Snow's campaign, made me want to cry). Every time I hear her name I think about her statement that transgender people are "broken". I am absolutely NOT broken, being transgender absolutely 100% no doubt FIXED me!!!!
Anyway, this has always been a favorite of mine. I had it on an Atlantic Records compilation album, something like "Super Hits". I'll have to look it up sometime, it was a great compilation. It also had one of my all time favorites "Hello It's Me" by Nazz on it.
