I have used singing to the emotional songs, such as you do, but not so much rock & never got into metal. All the screaming just made me agitated & fearful, really, while I kind of wished I could make so much noise. I couldn't do it.
I found emotional ballad type of songs, most especialy from Joni Mitchell, who wrote her heart &soul into her music.
As far as being loudly angry goes, the best I did was with some Tori Amos & Toni Childs. Toni Childs is more raw, while Tori is less direct. I loved the challeng. It really felt good to get some emotion out within the safety of a song. Janis Ian had some very sad songs too.
I also prefer female singers...😺
I can't sing like I once did, so it seems impossible to use the songs as before. Had to find other ways to express myself.

Puzzles? I never had patience for even small puzzles.
& now, I haven't got patience for 3D puzzles toys I can feel to do either.
Not even a tactile Rubik Cube

yeah i understand. i don't listen to metal as much as i used to. i just like it because it helps when i feel angry. it's common for lots of people who like that music.
i know Joni Mitchell but not her songs. Tori Amos has a good voice and lyrics, i've heard some of her songs. i had an old "friend" in America that met her heaps & was a huge fan. but we fell out because of her being rude to me. but anyway.
don't know Toni Childs songs but i know her also.
female and male singers are good to me. i'm off to watch some TV, i'll check back soon. 2 of my favourite shows on - Yes Minister, then Are You Being Served?. loved AYBS my whole life, i've seen it so many times. i have box sets of both. this is my 2nd time watching Yes Minister, & soon to be Yes Prime Minister when series 3 finishes, so i assume Fox Classics will play that.

This is a place where members are encouraged to be non-judgemental & more accepting of all our differences. Anyone you think is saying anything rude & insulting to you about any of your opinions, then you can report the post. The button is on the far right, past where the date & 'replied to ...' is. Don't hesitate to use it.
It doesn't mean I will ever like loudly amplified music. It does put me on notice to be polite & respectful, & not call you names or say rude things about the fact you like rock music.
😸 But after a while, I was actually enjoying Tori Amos's more noisy songs, even one particular one, the ones with swear words & all! 😺I surprised myself - saying things I would not normally say! & when I felt really, really angry, that's the song I'd put on my player...

Hi Tayla, the 'Jug Sans Lid' is a photo I took last year, here in my flat, using my so&so phone. I set it up on my little table, using a blue hand towel, a yellow vinyl mailer (with a braille magazine inside) propped up on the brick hal-hall to cover the bricks. (Otherwise I'd've had to clear off the shelf atop the the half-wall & drape a folded sheet or towel for that half of my pic.) bowl in front, all lights on, & I also used the flash. I'm not sure now, but I think I was sitting in my office chair, back a little so I cast no shadow, & zoomed in some too.
Afterwards, I did make some adjustments, cropping & enhancing contrast, shadow, highlight, definition but just a touch or two - not much or it is too noticable.
Thn I snt it to myself so it would be on my PC. Save it to my files & do a little more edits, such as the gey around, using the Paint programme. 😸 & that's about it. Anout all I can do nowadays.
Funny if it was Dali, you'd be struggling to see the difference! That's how well he could fool the eye.

I know what to do with the hole! I'll slice some pieces & colour them & make something like a stain glass window to fit the hole, like a skylight - a stained-ice-skylight! Croix will like that, especially when the sun shines through making pretty prismatic 🌈🌈all around the place!😺
& add some oozy🦪oyster sauce & crunchy🦀crustacean croutons to the🐟sardine ice cream...Oh, I'd like that myself!! Just fill up my big🥣red bowl &I'm a very😹happy cat.
"Grandy floss" - I dunno about that, DB! I know what you mean, but it could be misinterpreted...
oh dear, I've got to get myself back under control!

DB, I think it is my naughty brain. I give it a good talking to, because Grandy is far too good for what my brain had conjured up. It's alright; I'm thinking nice thoughts now. 😸
💐🦋💐🦋💐🦋💐🦋💐for all!
