Wish Me Away, Chely Wright

Have you seen the documentary about country singer Chely Wright coming out as the first openly gay country singer?

Oh my goodness!  I watched it the other day, and it was beautiful and lovely and raw.

I highly recommend it!!!

And I think more people need to support her instead of giving her death threats and saying she's going to hell.

Back off haters.

Bi and Gay Musicians

Okay, so I had a total moment today!

I realized that a good chuck of music I listen to, the artist or group is either come out as gay/lesbian, bi, or is rumored to be such.  These musicians are, much to my husband's chagrin, on heavy rotation...not because of the "rumors", it's because I just play them SOOOO much!!!

Some of those include:
Chely Wright (just came out as the first "uncloseted" gay country singer)
Terri Clark (rumored to be lovers with Chely Wright at one point, and my fav country singer, seen her like 7 or 8 times!!)
Missy Higgins (From Australia, not sure if Bi or Lesbian, but lyrics she's written suggest Bi.  Check our "Scar")
Lzzy Hale of Halestorm (in a recent FB Q&A, she said she likes girls too.)
Melissa Etheridge (Was super excited when she officially came out!)
Wynonna (rumored)
An Original Member of Sugarland (rumored, no longer with the group.)
Freddie Mercury of Queen (Bi, and one of the first victims of AIDS)
Sarah McLachlan (has said she would consider dating women, it just hasn't "presented itself" yet. lol, my other fav signer!)


Anyhoo, I thought that was interesting.  I've always liked these people strictly for their music, but it turns out there maybe a subconcious thing too?

What's on your playlist???

Super Crazy!

So sorry I haven't been here!  Life is just in the way!

We've been having many family health issues that have kept me very busy and traveling a ton.

I'm going to try to slowly get back into this.  I miss it, and miss my thoughts on paper.  I want to continue getting messages out to people that really need to here these things.

So, please forgive me!  I'm trying!!
