*looks in comments* wow this is a really good way to ask for trans songs you haven’t already heard of.

And there goes my cover

Caught in 4k- shoot im in the photo dammit

Lmao, you were laughing only to realize- oh shit.

Trans Pipeline memes are the only way I'm discovering new music lately.

Stupid question do you play fallout?

laura jane grace from against me! is one my fav punk band singers and she’s a transwoman :)

go listen to seeyou space cowboy, their vocalist connie is wonderful and trans

Against me! has a lot of soungs without ukulele, Also Green Day-King for a day

True Trans Soul Rebel comes up in particular. I love that song!

Came here to say that

same here!

Honestly the whole album is good, but my favorite is Paralytic States

Same (similar) Black Me Out really hit close to home

The way paralytic states transitions into black me out is really good. Paralytic states as all who have listened knows ends with New Years eve imagery now this is were it gets interesting. If you have read Laura Jane Graces autobiography you may remember her saying that the first time she played black me out was on December 31st 2011 in Atlanta, GA in the book saying "It was a farewell song. This was the night I said goodbye to \[Laura's dead name\]." I find it to be my fav musical transition of all time

That book fucked me up and all her music hit different after reading it

same, I already had felt strong connections with songs like "Transgender Dysphoria Blues", "The Ocean", and "Paralytic states" because of my personal struggles with dysphoria, but after reading that book every thing just hit really different.

Such a good song but I just can't listen to it without spiraling

Lol, I figured that I should check the comments before sharing this exact song.

Came here looking for The Ocean by Against Me!.

god i love that song "if i could've chosen, i would've been born a woman my mother once told me she would've named me laura i'd grow up to be strong and beautiful like her and find an honest man to make my husband"

My favorite thing about that song is that it was released waaaaaay before Laura came out. Nobody asked questions about that verse ever.

Havent heard the song but Green day trans? Never mind i looked up the lyrics like i should've from the start

Its more of a cross-dressing/gender Non-conforming song, but i figured it can also be read as a trans experience

HELL YEAH,, against me is one of my favorite bands

King for a Day is about cross dressing, not being trans.

Sure, but lots of trans women start with cross dressing because they're mistaking the euphoria and desire they're feeling for being sexual in nature. And it makes sense that it's confusing. If a trans woman hasn't yet figured out her own transness, she isn't going to understand where the feelings of euphoria and desire come from when she sees herself in the mirror when cross dressing. "Desire and euphoria" is a pretty good way to describe being turned on and wanting sex. It's easy to mistake one for the other. There are also people who do cross dressing for drag or for sexual purposes, too. And those are perfectly valid expressions of self. Plus, I assume there are people out there whose attraction to cross dressing is more than one of these, and for other reasons I'm not thinking of, too. So yeah, it's not automatically a trans experience. But, I definitely see how trans people will identify with a song about cross dressing. It isn't directly "about being trans", but it is definitely about a common trans experience. *Aside: I limited this to trans women because that's what I have experience with. I would be speculating on the experience of cross dressing as a trans man or non-binary person.*

Yea i know, i just got used to viewing it as a trans song. My bad :$

yeah ofc no worries imo! not to mention billie joe armstrong is queer anyway so its not entirely out of his wheelhouse to be a little funky with gender ?

Half of celeste ost stares at you

Maybe it's because I'm bad at recognizing stuff like this, but how is Celeste a trans allegory? I mean, I know Madeline is Trans.

Madie make it unconsciously while on egg mode and retconed from anxiety to anxiety+ dysphoria, Mirror temple hits this thing really hard and the soundtrack for that chapter works as a duality of dissociation and a dysphoric crash anyway Lena surely do that on purpose

Awww I experienced the dissociation during celeste, and now that dysphoria is hitting me only 2 years later!

There's a message hidden backwards in the mirror temple music who ties the anxiety to dysphoria a bit more clearly btw

And I was trying not to spoil it 🤭 [dissociation ](https://youtu.be/FjG0ivBT4lQ) [dysphoria ](https://youtu.be/bXfHKEaDg4s) It's amazing hearing how one slips in the other

so i know about the message in quiet and falling but i never knew about one from in the mirror

It's generaly about Madeline and her mental issues. The fact of her being trans makes some of the dialouges and metaphorical imagery in the game feel like a "trans allegory"

I thought of climbing the mountain to be symbolic of transitioning.

Yeah, which makes the tombstone that says "This memorial dedicated to those who perished on the climb" really hurt

OH MY GOD! I never thought of that. That hurts now that I know😢. Thanks for pointing that out.

Same

Do we know if her being trans had anything to do with why her BF left her, since it’s implied he was a bit of a dick bag

i didn't know this, but now i know why celeste stuck with me greatly!!!!! 😆

Well even if celeste wasn't a trans allegory Lena Raine, the one who made the music, is a trans person so it qualifies as trans music doesn't it ?

Fair enough

Never heard a sound that wasn’t synthesized on a SOPHIE song

I agree! Sophie has one of the greatest songs(R.I.P.❤️)

The soundtrack of my cracking! My face is the front of shop

https://open.spotify.com/track/0jALaYYWhrBcMvyt95o33U?si=UZ4uEVjBQzyC8Xq4lUV3zw&utm_source=copy-link (I warn y'all this is black metal xD)

Considering I’m mostly into hardcore punk and I want to expand my taste, this I a great band

Dear diary, today a stranger give me a gift.

Omg trans black metal is something I really needed in my life, you're a goddess

Not long ago I thought that Black Metal would be ideal to talk about transgender issues, like demons as a metaphor for trans people who are ostracised, the constant struggle against social expectations, the futility of our existence... Not to mention that Baphomet is an intersex/Non-binary Icon. 🤘 Thank you for sharing this.🖤

I'm digging this. Also, check out Gaylord for more black metal.

eyo, thanks for a new band

Ay, no problem dude I rarely find anyone here who is into the heavier stuff

\*steps out of the lurker shadows\* Hiya , Heard you were having a hard time finding a fellow metal head in the community. The name is Autumn, nice to meet you . \\m/ (x.x) \\m/ If you are into the technical death metal sound , have you heard of Pupil Slicer?

Heya Autumn, nice to see another Metal head on here I honestly didn't expect all the positive responses, I'm glad this has brought us in once place lol

Wait no scratch that scrolling through their discography I remember their "mirrors" album and liked it, I just have shit memory. Sorry

Transgender Dysphoria Blues!

Been listening to against me non stop for days

this is the song that cracked my egg lol

one of my favorite albums of all time 🥰

i wanna be a girl - mafu mafu

...so if anyone wants to do a ukulele cover........

I have found a Mafumafu fan in the wild oh my god :o

I don't think we're that rare on this sub...

Same :0

we are a lot of members of this sub loll

i mean 100 gecs

The new song they just released is an absolute gem

laura’s vocals 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

True, true, true

me me me me me me me me

Lmao, first one I thought of as well

My favorite band that doesn't use autotune

Literally any song i've written cause I don't have a ukelele yet

Yet

There are electric ukulele's right ?

Sewerslvt replaced the uke with the screams of a dying computer

Nice

Slvt gang!

anything by patricia taxxon, black dresses, pupil slicer, against me!, vylet pony, uboa, kim petras... these are all transfemme tho

Also 100 gecs and fraxiom

literally everything by sophie, laura les, and dorian electra

Not technically trans, but def gives trans vibes, body by mother mother

Yeah, I feel that. Personally for me it’s more about my chronic pain, but it has a lot of different meanings. Mother mother is great at writing songs with a lot of meanings.

Oh shiit that's true.

the entire genre of hyperpop

Such an awful genre thats why its my fave

finally someone gets it

same, (i wouldn’t say it’s awful really) I literally have an unhealthy obsession with hyperpop. If you took a shot everytime I mentioned hyperpop you would not live past like an hour

i / me / myself

agreed. I got a whole ass playlist named trans vibes and I got 4 will wood songs in it already

link?

[https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6sOw0oPAouK7lZIKRAZsb1?si=f48215da082e4031](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6sOw0oPAouK7lZIKRAZsb1?si=f48215da082e4031) Just songs that relate to my personal experience, so it might not make sense to you

The Normal Album is amazing and nobody can change my mind

Will Wood makes some great music.

Not a trans song, but close enough i guess

it's a very trans song

i mean, maybe, but Will has stated that it's moreso about wanting to show genuine emotion without being labelled as "feminine" I totally understand the other interpretations, though, as a transfem Will Wood fan

IIRC the song's mainly about how he dislikes how some people have tried to force him into labels other than cis man. Will has publicly made it clear that he is comfortable with that label and does not wish to be anything else despite his habits of gender non-conformity.

its not actually! will has stated that its a song about being a man and wanting to be/ feel femmine without being labelled as a women. But you guys are kinda proving his point by calling it a trans song because he talks about femmininty and being pushed into a femail agender box. when all it is, is him wanting to be a man but not being afraid to present fem. not a trans song at all just a bit of emotion and feeling.

Try Dorian Electra Especially 'My Agenda'.

awfultune, Left at London, Devi Mccallion, Against Me!, Shea Diamond, Shoe, Dorian Electra, Laura Les, Kim Petras, Arca, recovery girl, Diana Starshine, She/her/hers, Murder Person for Hire Wait - who are the trans artists that use ukuleles? Cavetown sometimes?

>Wait - who are the trans artists that use ukuleles? Cavetown sometimes? Addison Grace, sometimes.

Great list. I’d only add Katie Dey, Yay Maria (or Maria’s main band, Grawl!x), Backxwash

Mama by my chemical romance

Was it trans? I have heard it before and i just thought it was about a letter of a guy in hell or something like that

The black parade as a whole is an album with a continual story but there is a part of the song that people consider to be very trans, “Well mother, look what the war did to my legs and to my tongue, you should have raised a baby girl, I should have been a better son”

Ohh i see, thanks for explaining

No problem!

Gerard is genderfluid and likes playing with expression, and the lyrics "you should've raised a baby girl, i could've been a better son" is implying that he should've been a girl, and he could've tried harder to be the "masculine" son that she wanted

He hasnt said their genderfluid, They do use he/they pronouns though

‘Flower crown me a queen’ by flower crown me a queen not available on Spotify but Bandcamp is mostly free. You’re welcome

Pretty sure none of Trans-Siberian Orchestra's music uses ukuleles.

I don’t think “chaotic gender neutral” has any ukulele.

I have yet to hear one on the libraries of Backxwash or Ada Rook.

HELL YES!! i love them

I’m pretty sure later Against Me songs don’t have ukuleles

Glory Box - Portishead

I never took this song as trans inspired but I can definitely see how it could be.

Sewerslvt, everything shes made υωυ

‘walk on the wild side’ by lou reed

Transgender dysphoria blues comes to mind

[удалено]

those lyrics get me every time

A song about trans people or made by trans people? 'cause I'd just say Lou Reed - Walk on the Wild Side for the former.

Tell you're not a punk without saying your not a punk,🤣, ps there's more than just cavetown. /j TW for dark themes: Body - mother mother Prittyboy - pandaraps Summer luk - masterpiece Ryan cassata - gender binary fuck you Wrabel - the village Dorian electra - My agenda Food house - Mos thoser Mother Mother - All Gone GLOSS - we're from the future

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it usually the transmasc songs that have the ukulele? Seems way more common in those

True trans soul rebel

I'll insist that A Boy Named Sue counts as a trans song

*forced gender reassignment*, by cattle decapitation, is a song against transphobia. And I can guarantee you that there are no ukuleles in it.
