They Got The Blues
Introduction I was listening to an album on the roots of Jimi Hendrix and the first song on was "Killing Floor" by Howlin' Wolf. Then I thought that Blues singers often had such excellent alternate names. Mckinley Morganfield became Muddy Waters although is real name was something special too.

12 Months Of Washington. Runner-Up in The Soundtrack of Your Year Challenge.
At the end of 2023 I made one promise to myself. That promise was to explore often and as much as humanly possible. It was purely immersing myself into the nature and beauty of Washington state.

Musical Songs, Musical Dances
I’m back! (Too soon? Not soon enough?) I had a bit of an inspiration while working on a different playlist article and thought, “hey, that’s a bit more fun.” I thought, why not focus on a particular genre? Specifically, I thought, why not try musicals?

Twelve Months Of Song
Introduction I am always listening to music while I work, and lots of songs stick with me, and often they pertain to certain months of the year, so I thought I would share one song for each month of the year, which either names the month or a special day within that month.

My 2024 Playlist . Top Story - December 2024.
The year is wrapped in a cloudy layer of memory fog. Where the beginning of the year seems like a distant reality. If anything I see the future a lot more clearly. That being said, I find that I struggle to remember a lot of things because I am shifting; I am transforming. A few months ago, I had the realization that I was not who I wanted to be and I was falling into repetitive cycles of trauma and depression. Ultimately, I was sick of it. I had to make it feel better. And If I was going to grow then I needed to look at what I had been doing, accept that the past served me, but no longer does and move on to what I wanted to become. And even with the year coming to a close, I am not done this change. In fact it is only the beginning. However, I understand that the past plays a significant role in who we become, and since I believe this to be true, than perhaps we can live through it again in the songs I listened too over and over again.

Soundtrack of a Homeless Addict's Wife. First Place in The Soundtrack of Your Year Challenge. Content Warning.
If this were a support group meeting, I might say: Hi, my name is Marilyn. My husband is a homeless addict. Instead, I am using Vocal Media's Soundtrack of The Year Challenge to share an intimate part of my life that I haven't written about on this platform. 2024 has been a whirlwind of emotional flux as my husband's near brush with death sent me back in time reliving much heartache, anger, and frustration. Dredging up old memories recaptured a darkness I never thought I'd see again.

A Playlist Of Positivity
Introduction A song came on and I thought that makes me feel good, why not do a playlist of songs like this, and the first four songs that came to mind all involved Mick Jones. Then I started to think maybe I should choose one and do a Mick Jones playlist but I have decided to include them here.

Worldwide Panic Show Growth And Fortitude With New Song "Break Me Down"
Hard Rock/Alternative Metal band Worldwide Panic have released their furious and rebellious new track “Break Me Down”. It’s the first release from the Los Angeles, CA based band’s upcoming 2nd full-length album, which will be released in the first quarter of 2025. The song was produced by the acclaimed Bob Marlette (Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, Shinedown, Rob Zombie) and mastered by Chris "Zeuss" Harris (Hatebreed, Demon Hunter, Rob Zombie, Jasta). The track is a bellicose rant against authority figures and people in positions of power who try to break down your spirit and confidence through gaslighting and mind games.
