Wanted to know, do any of you girls have a song that reminds you of your feminine alter ego. Whenever I hear Jordan Sparks sing "No air" I think of Jennifer. Its almost like I am thinking of another female, but its me! I know it sounds strange but I wanted to know if anyone else can identify with me.

A really good question! Anytime I hear "A Little More Love" by Olivia Newton John I really key into my femme side. I suppose it i because when I was 9 or 10, I really wanted to be Olivia more than anything. Any song by Olivia, really, but that one more than most. Also, when ABBA songs come on my Ipod when I'm driving to work, I get into my accomplished falsetto and sing along :D

Kelly Clarkson's 'Because of you" makes me think of Jen White (the name I use) and a real girl who died in a car accident a week before we were to get married. OK depressing. So how about some fun ones.

Shania, of course! Even truck drivers sing along to "Man! I feel like a woman..." Who can resist that song?

It seems to be on heavy rotation in the big supermarket I go to, and I have to physically hurt myself to keep from singing it aloud when I push my cart down the aisles. Sheesh!

But generally, I like all the best of the rockin' bitches...Joan Jett, Lita Ford, Pat Benatar, Bonnie Tyler, ...you know who I mean! :thumbsup:

And Joan Jett's "Do You Wanna Touch..." is my unofficial theme song...:D

It was 1973 ... and the 3 biggest things in my life where (in no particular order):

1) Top 40 AM radio
2) 45 RPM records
3) Wearing girls clothes - especially bras and panties

Oh, those wonderful nights with my radio next to my bed, pulling in those great radio stations like CKLW, WLS, WCFL, and WABC. If I was extra lucky and the gods of the aether smiled upon me, I'd catch Radio Luxembourg on the shortwave bit. Every week Id listen to Top20 on the BBC World Service also on shortwave. Needless to say, I'd hear all those great songs, which meant I'd be buying LOTS of great records -- 45 rpm singles.

On Sundays, my mum and dad along with my sister would go visit my grandpap and I'd stay home by myself. I'd dig out a skirt and top that I bought, or maybe the one dress that I had, my teen bra and some panties, some pantyhose (Today's Girl brand), and get dressed up. I'd do my nails in a pretty pink and do some makeup. I wasn't very good yet. And then, I'd toss a stack of 45s on my record player and sit reading the latest copy of Tiger Beat or 16 (to catch up on the music scene) or Seventeen (to catch up on fashion). I'd lay there on my tummy on my bed, in a scene resembling any other teenage girl around the world. Sure, I still had short hair like a boy, but that was okay, in my mind I was truly a girl in every way. Thank heavens I never did get caught.

And so, it was that I'd hop on my bike on other days, obviously in boy mode, but more than likely wearing panties and a bra if I could get away with it. My mum kept count of the undies I tossed in the dirty clothes - god forbid I should show up short on boy's undies -- hehe -- she washed more pairs of wrinkled up never worn clean boy's undies than she'll ever know.

Anyway, it was off to W T Grant's to buy 45s and panties. And when I was there, I bought the 45 of the song, whose lyrics I quote below. I also bought some really cool nail decals that had a Japanese character/ letter decoration on them. The song was Diamond Girl by Seals and Crofts. The lyrics, well, I saw them my song to the girl within me.

I was so glad I found the girl within, and that she was mine, and she is so precious to me. Part of her heaven was rained on because my mum tried to destroy her. I couldn't be me without her, and she could be her without me. We are real.

So -- that's my song -- forever and always

Huggles

Toni-Lynn

-----------------------------------

Diamond Girl by Seals and Crofts

Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Glad I found you, glad you're mine.
Oh my love, you're like a precious stone, part of earth where heaven has rained on.
Makes no difference where you are. Day or nighttime, you're like a shinin' star.
And how could I shine without you, when it's about you that I am?

Diamond Girl, roamin' wild. Such a rare thing, radiant child.
I could never find, another one like you. Part of me is deep down inside you.
Can't you feel the whole world a-turin'. We are real, and we are a-burnin'.
Diamond Girl, now that I've found you, it's about you that I am.

Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Diamond Girl, you sure do shine.
Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Diamond Girl, you sure do shine.

Well, "Man I feel like a woman" without a doubt is top of the pops. However, when I'm on my own in the house I fire up ITunes loud and sing along with all the female vocalists I can find in my library. Long term favourite - Dido. Especially "White Flag".

Oh to be a female vocalist....

Que Sera Sera


When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

When I was young, I fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows, day after day
Here's what my sweetheart said.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, what will I be
Will I be handsome, will I be rich
I tell them tenderly.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

Jamie, I'm such a huge Pink Floyd fan - Shine on... is such a brilliant track. It seems somehow appropriate that it's about a creative genius who had such difficulty fitting in with mainstream life.

Hmmm, funny you should mention that, it is one of mine as well. I don't know why.

But for me, anything by Belinda Carlisle or the Go-go's.
Also, the songs "paradox" or "he knew" by Kansas. I was listening to that tape one of the first times I ever was 100% en femme, the same night I made my first makeup purchases.

"The Wind Beneath My Wing" - Bette Midler

I have always loved being in the behind the scenes, supporting role in life. I know it is a stereotypical assigned trait of women, and I am so glad today women are proving themselves just as well in leadership roles, but I, even as a male, love being in my role of supporting others, the quiet, unseen, wind beneath their wings.

For me as a transsexual I'm not really "reminded of my female side" since I'm always (mentally/spiritually) female...

But there are 2 songs in particular that can explain pretty much how I feel about myself...

1.) Breathe No More (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zH_EJo5MFR8) (Evanescence)
2.) Zero (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlVw3qFZNJI) (Evergreen Terrace; and yes I know it's a Smashing Pumpkins cover but I hate them and their original version)

Here's the lyrics -

Breathe No More:
I’ve been looking in the mirror for so long.
That I’ve come to believe my soul's on the other side.
All the little pieces falling, shatter.
Shards of me,
Too sharp to put back together.
Too small to matter,
But big enough to cut me into so many little pieces.
If I try to touch her,
And I bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe no more.

Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirit's well.
Yet again you refuse to drink like a stubborn child.
Lie to me,
Convince me that I’ve been sick forever.
And all of this,
Will make sense when I get better.
But I know the difference,
Between myself and my reflection.
I just can’t help but to wonder,
Which of us do you love.
So I bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe now...
Bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe,
I breathe-
I breathe no more.

Zero:
My reflection, dirty mirror
There's no connection to myself
I'm your lover, I'm your zero
I'm in the face of your dreams of glass
So save your prayers
For when we're really gonna need'em
Throw out your cares and fly
Wanna go for a ride?

She's the one for me
She's all I really need oh yeah
Cause she's the one for me

Emptiness is loneliness, and loneliness is cleanliness
Cleanliness is godliness, and god is empty just like me

Intoxicated with the madness, I'm in love with my sadness
Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms
The fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth

I never let on, that I was on a sinking ship
I never let on that I was down

You blame yourself, for what you can't ignore
You blame yourself for wanting more

She's the one for me
She's all I really need oh yeah
She's the one for me
She's my one and only

I don't expect you guys to understand what it all means to me...but I just thought I'd share. If you do think you get it then tell me and I'll tell you if you're right or not.

I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off.
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on.
I wish I was a sentimental ornamnet you hung on
The christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top,
I wish I was the evidence
I wish I was the grounds for fifty million hands up raised and opened toward the sky.

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me.
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.
I wish I was a messenger, and all the news was good.
I wish I was the full moon shining off a camaro's hood.

I wish I was an alien, at home behind the sun,
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on.
I wish I was the pedal break that you depended on.
I wish I was the verb to trust, and never let you down.

I wish I was the radio song, the one that you turned up,
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish,
I guess it never stops.

(actually, its more like the current theme song from an internal drama i like to call "Astrid's transition?" now in post production. should be out by next fall, watch this space lol)


You're not human you're a miracle
A preacher with an animal's face
In your sexy neon smokescreen
Lie the supersalesmen of vanity
Even your shadow worships you
In your jungle solitude
With the orgies of the sacrament
And the seal of flagellants
you know god saves those who save their skin
From the bondage that we're in
I'm elated I could cut you
And remove the sheath of your ignorance
Bless the eunuch and the skoptsi
Will you hurt me now and make a million?
Say cheese, baby we all love you
But it's a cheap world and you don't exist...
Slit the fabric of the right now, spread your legs and wear the crown
Tell me how long, lord, how long till I get my beauty sleep?
Now the hourglass is empty, the moment of my de sex-ing
Cut this cancer from my soul
Now that I've made it, I'm finally naked
classic pop melodies x

Cool Change - Little River Band...

If there's one thing in my life that's missing
It's the time I spend alone
Sailing on the cool and bright clear waters
There's lots of those friendly people
Showin me ways to go
And I never want to lose your inspiration
Time for
a cool change...
I know that it's time
for a cool change
Now that my life
is so pre-arranged
I know that it's time
for a cool change
Well I was born in the sign of water
And it's there that I feel my best
The albatross and the whales
they are my brothers
It's kind of a special feeling
When you're out on the sea alone
Starin' at the full moon
like a lover
Time for
a cool change...
I know that it's time
for a cool change
Now that my life
is so prearranged
I know that it's time
for a cool change
Well I've never been romantic
And sometimes I don't care
I know it may sound selfish
But let me breathe the air
If there's one thing in my life that's missing
It's the time that I spend alone
Sailing on the cool and bright clear waters
It's kind of a special feeling
When you're out on the sea alone
Staring at the full moon like a lover
Time for
a cool change...
I know that it's time
for a cool change
Now that my life is so prearranged
I know that it's time
for a cool change

The Great Pretender by The 5 Satins. Classic Doo Wop. I think The Platters actually recorded it first. The lyrics don't quite fit, but can be easily tweaked.

It's Only Make Believe by Conway Twitty before he went country.

At Last by Etta James. I just added this to my list recently when I finally fully accepted myself as a CDer.

I feel Like A Woman by Shania Twain. On practically every CDers playlist for obvious reasons.

Pretty Woman by Roy Orbison

Lovers by Night, Strangers by Day by The Fleetwoods. The title seems appropriate for a closet CDer.

Take a walk on the Wild Side by Lou Reed. Probably too obvious, but...

Je Non Regrete Rien by Edith Piaf. The title in English is "I Don't Regret Anything". This is another one that fits since I accepted myself.

These leapt to mind immediately. If I sit here long enough I could come up with a few more...

I remember when I'd dress up and just go driving around in my car, I'd put on my No Doubt CD and crank up "I'm just a girl" as loud as I could :p. Whenever I heard it on the radio, I'd get the urge to go home and dress up~

NIN - Hurt

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of shit
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end

You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

I've always just naturally listened to a lot of 'girly' songs. It wasn't even a conscious thing.

At this point, it's just too much a part of me to really even think about. Madonna's "Give It 2 Me" is an easy example of what's on my iPod right now.

In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway American dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Sprung from cages out on highway 9,
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected
and steppin' out over the line
Baby this town rips the bones from your back
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
We gotta get out while we're young
'Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run

Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
I want to guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims
and strap your hands across my engines
Together we could break this trap
We'll run till we drop, baby we'll never go back
Will you walk with me out on the wire
'Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider
But I gotta find out how it feels
I want to know if love is wild
girl I want to know if love is real

Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
And the boys try to look so hard
The amusement park rises bold and stark
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight
In an everlasting kiss

The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
Everybody's out on the run tonight
but there's no place left to hide
Together Wendy we'll live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Someday girl I don't know when
we're gonna get to that place
Where we really want to go
and we'll walk in the sun
But till then tramps like us
baby we were born to run
