Title: What music puts you there?
Post by: sprouts on January 18, 2012, 06:47:00 PM
Preface
I'm 29 and only 3 months into transition.  I'm really sensitive about my age, and I've been really worrying about my future and present struggles with transitioning.  I've no friends and I live in a very, very conservative town.  A lot of things concerning my transition have happened recently...  Also, my emotions are a bit, uh, unstable.

So, last night I was feeling pretty good about myself and my girlfriend was giving me special attention.  Beach Fossils were playing in the background and I was really moved in a way that I've never been before.  I love my girlfriend like crazy, and she's really pretty, but the music made the moment.  I've always been way into music, but I've really been feeling it more than ever. 

So what music puts you there?  Surely, I'm not the only one who's experienced this.

Hi, for me it is George Winston, his piano music is great.
I like other too but I listen to him the most.  Aloha.

I like the song "Half Jack" and "Sex Changes" (wow both are pretty identifiable with transgender especially the latter) by the Dresden Dolls.
Ummm... there are so many songs it is hard to choose one, but those songs are really good to me.

There are a lot of theres there.  So it would depend on which there I wanted to head to.  Unless it's my special super happy place, and no matter what, were or when it would be the Grateful Dead @ Winterland (SF) December 29, 1977 - Released commercially as Dick's Picks Vol. 10.

Super happy place... Yeah, I think that might be how I'd describe it.  I don't know though, it's difficult to put in to words.

Off topic:

I'm getting new eyebrows today!  Totally stoked, and a little worried.
