On my mental soundtrack on this Mother's Day: the queer chorus I sing with performed this song earlier this year, and it hit me right between the eyes emotionally. The pain of my parents emotionally distancing themselves from me as I became ever more assertive about being my true queer self still rankles almost 50 years later.
"I come from good people
I have journeyed far from them
My mother and I are two of a kind
And I wear my father's face
I have left them far behind
We will meet in another place" -
On my mental soundtrack today.

On my mental soundtrack today: in honor of Turtles co-founder Mark "The Phlorescent Leech" Volman, RIP today age 78, I present one of my favorite of Frank Zappa's compositions, featuring Mark and his musical partner Howard Kaylen in their Flo and Eddy guise.

One of my favorite songs by one of my favorite musical smart-asses. Rest in peace, sir.

On my mental soundtrack for Pride Month: Jimmy Somerville's gorgeous falsetto ringing out in protest against queerphobia, set to a video that broadens the protest to call out 1980s Thatcherist economic oppression. Both of which messages, sadly, apply to current events in the US.

On my mental soundtrack this US Memorial Day: a meditation on the price of war, recorded during the height of the Vietnam War.

On my mental soundtrack today - this was the version I first heard, back when I was a teen.

And because Mr Swayze's banana inevitably resulted in a certain earworm wedging itself onto my mental soundtrack, I will pass that favor along to you all. You're welcome. 🤣

Needed some musical mood mitigation on my mental soundtrack today, and the brain fetched up this old favorite chunk o punk-flavored gallows humor re the latest rapid accelerations in the decline and fall of "Western" civilization.

Another ambivalent Christmas song from the holiday edition of my mental soundtrack ... which manages to find something meaningful amidst the ambivalence.

Y'know, if that Dan Fogelberg song counts as a Christmas song, surely this song by my preferred Dan does too. Specifically for that poignant second verse. RIP Walter Becker.

A favorite from my mental soundtrack of ambivalent Christmas songs.

This song has been stuck in my head for several days now thanks to a photo of Exene Cervenka and John Doe taken by Chris Stein that he posted to his BlueSky account. So now I'm passing the favor along to you all. Sorry not sorry. 😄

LOL my previous post featuring my Swayze-cat playing with his catnip banana inevitably led to this earworm getting lodged on my mental soundtrack - so now I share it with you all. You're welcome. 😸

Mental soundtrack du jour: I can't let this eating-pets fuckery pass without referencing one of my all-time favorite musicals. The hysterical ditty Worst Pies in London also applies, but the one I most want to focus on is this anthem to eating the rich.

A droll little bit of conversation about creative usage of vegetable emojis inspired my brain to pop this old favorite onto today's Mental Soundtrack. After all, if you call any vegetable, the chances are good the vegetable will respond to you. At least, according to Frank. 🍆 🧄 🎃 🤣

This number snuck onto my mental soundtrack today when I realized that I have no tasks requiring intensive braining this weekend ... though I reckon my mouth will be on vacation too except for snacking out while screwing around on the computer. 😸

On my mental soundtrack today, in honor of Tom Smothers, who left an indelible imprint on my sense of humor, not to mention my political awareness. His memory for a blessing.

The existential fear-and-loathing over the state of the world and my little corner of same is laying heavy on my brain today, so it's time to fight back with one of my favorite anthems of punk sarcasm.

Today's stop on my Pride Month musical memory trip: longtime ally Crystal Waters' drag king rendition of her epic dancefloor anthem, as captured for the ages in the landmark documentary Wigstock. The link will only play over on YouTube and comes in halfway through Waters' number but you get the idea.😍

Latest on my #MentalSoundtrack: This exquisitely moody song, with its video of equally moody Kiwi surrealism.

Another tune from Tonio K that's been in regular rotation on my #MentalSoundtrack ever since it came out.

Current track from my #MentalSoundtrack - yet another 1970s song that is sadly all too relevant today.
"They put jesus on a cross, they put a hole in j.f.k.
they put hitler in the driver's seat and looked the other way
now they've got poison in the water and the whole world in a trance
but just because we're hypnotized, that don't mean we can't dance" -
