Listen on Apple MusicListen on Spotify “I’m that Bitch” by RuPaulSometimes you need to be your own hype woman. This song was my hype song all month. “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m … Continue reading Songs of My Life: April 2021
Didn’t even realize March ended until it was the end of April 1. Guess that was the April Fools Joke on me. Blink and I would have missed it. I don’t really have a lot to say about March. It was what it was and I felt like I was tired or behind the eight ball all month. Listen on Apple Music Listen on Spotify … Continue reading Songs of My Life: March 2021
I’m glad you’re ending March. You’ve been a doozy for the world. With Corvid-19 literally and figuratively taking over the world be it in people or the news, stupid politicians doing stupid things (though that’s always been happening) to here in Sydney, Mother Nature can’t make up her mind. She’s having hot flashes one day. Rain the next and then wind that could put the … Continue reading Songs of My Life: March 2020
Musically, the songs of May may not have been about patience, but I feel that was what I was suppose to learn this month. Patience. Patience with myself, my soul, my spirit, my physical journey and patience with others. Listen on AppleMusic Listen on Spotify “Rainin’” by Sponge (Live at Rock Ring version) This will always be one of my favorite Sponge songs and this beauty … Continue reading Songs of My Life: May 2019
Besides being all over the place, I feel the theme for March musically is being strong. Strong enough to know better, do better, be better. I know for me personally, it was a month of building a stronger sense of self, taking care of self and building a healthier and stronger self. Listen on AppleMusic Listen on Spotify “Stronger” by Kayne West I heard this … Continue reading Songs of My Life: March 2019
With April ending in a Scorpio Full Moon in Pluto Retrograde, for me it means I am celebrating my evolution which is very apropos as this month I’ve grown mentally, spiritually and energetically.

Helden by Apocalyptica featuring Till … Continue reading Top 16 Cover Songs
When I originally sat down to reflect on the songs of August, I thought the theme was BREATHE as it appears in several lyrics and try as I might to stay level headed and together and positive and all that wonderful jazz, I do sometimes forget to just breathe. But on second glance, the theme was not BREATHE, the theme was NOT ENOUGH. For me, the first half … Continue reading Songs of My Life: August 2017
I give you Volume 2. Narrowing this down to 20 was so freaking hard. So many songs!! The last 20 years have been filled with gems that’s for sure. I also realized I am quite influenced by songs with “train” in the title. There was two in Volume 1, one here. Again, these songs are a part of who I am and have influenced me for … Continue reading The Music History of Shelia: Volume 2 (1996-2016)
April, the month, saw the birth of April the Giraffe’s baby. Finally. Yes, I stalked the internet waiting for that giraffe to be born. April also had my head in a fucking god damn tizzy. I swung back and forth between “fucking hostile” and “fucking crying”. Finally, toward the end of the month, I landed in between both moods in the area of “fucking fuck … Continue reading Songs of My Life: April 2017
