I'm a transgender woman who has loved music for as long as I can remember. My earliest memories are of sitting on the floor and listening to 45's and 78's. Music is the essential part of my life. Over the years I made many attempts to make a list of my favorite music. In 2011 I came up with the idea of http://scotts-vital-music.blogspot.com and creating the list by posting a song every day. When I transitioned in 2015 and changed my name I created this blog to continue the project...

I was listening to this album again yesterday morning while I was sunbathing, I've had this song stuck in my head ever since. In this case I don't really mind, I love this song. It is kind of dreamy...

"The Long and Winding Road" by The Beatles
Last year I found these Beatles' 45's, that came out of jukeboxes. I thought it would be fun to hang them on my wall.
Anyway, I was hanging "The Long and Winding Road" this morning and it started playing in my head. It was always one of my favorites.

"Do You Feel Like We Do" by Peter Frampton
The song "I Want You to Want Me" popped into my head this morning. I was thinking it was by Peter Frampton. I had a feeling that I had already posted it, but when I did a search for "Peter" it didn't find any songs by Peter Frampton.
After looking for Peter Frampton songs on YouTube I realized it wasn't by Peter Frampton. It was by Cheap Trick and I have already posted it... twice I see. The first time on 5-Dec-2015.
Anyway, here is a song actually by Peter Frampton, that I love...

"Smokin' in the Boys Room" by Brownsville Station
Last night, after Rock 'n' Roll Camp for Girls I went up behind the Utah State Capital, smokin' with the girls. It reminded me of this fun song from over 40 years ago. I still have this album...
I have to say what an amazing experience volunteering at RRCFG this week has been! I'm sure it has been empowering for the girls, it has empowered me. It has been so energizing and uplifting. One of the most amazing experiences of my life!

"South" by Shona Laing
I just *HATE* 3 A.M.! And this morning when I woke and looked at the clock it was exactly 03:00 (my clock is set for 24-hour time). Still seems that if I can't immediately go back to sleep I eventually start going down that anxiety rabbit hole.
It happened yesterday at about 02:30. I sure hope we aren't going back into one of those phases...
Anyway, I finally decided to get up and start cleaning up some of the many draft posts I started and never finished. Came across the one for "Somebody to Love" on 16-Apr-2017 and see that was a "rabbit hole day" as well. :(
That one was ironic for this morning because part of the anxiety was over the thought that finding a... partner seems so remote. Talking to one of my trans-woman friends yesterday, that is significantly younger than I, she said she doesn't hold out much hope... especially in this state...
Anyway, I noticed the night before last I've never posted this song and it has the right feel to it this morning...

"I Think I Love You" by The Partridge Family
I walked up Millcreek Canyon this morning with my friend and it was very healing. Last night was very nasty, I felt like I was on my deathbed again.
While we were walking she mentioned that her mom used to sing this song to her and then she found out that this was the #1 song on her birthday.
She sent me this link to find the #1 song on your birthday: http://playback.fm/birthday-song
This song is so much fun...

"In Hell I'll Be In Good Company" by The Dead South
So, as expected, we still had some haters at the Pride Festival and Pride Parade over the weekend. They said some things to me as I was rushing into the library for the KRCL panel. I replied as nicely as I could and I thought I would chat with them after the panel, but they had dispersed by the time I was finished at the panel.
Then they had bullhorns at the parade and they spoke right at me: "You're confused...". I blew them a kiss ;)
Then, today, SueZQ said she saw my friend Cat Palmer on the news, filing a complaint that they were using "hate speech" and telling people to kill themselves, commit suicide, etc. That is NOT COOL!!
Anyway, I told many people at Pride that I would much rather burn in hell with all the beautiful, amazing, loving, accepting people there, than go to heaven with assholes like those haters!!!!!!!!!
So this song popped on YouTube the other day and it is perfect! I love it!! Great music and the video is really fun!!!
