These are the top three songs that have been extremely transformative in my life. I use music to heal, to alchemize and to purge. All three of these songs hold a very special place in my life, and they are absolutely timeless.

I remember the first time I heard this song I was extremely young, but I knew that something amazing was happening. The music video that accompanies this song is so powerful because it shows a huge human chain being formed around the world. I truly believe that when as human beings, all of our voices unite as one we can accomplish anything. Energy is so powerful and I truly believe that Michael Jackson is an alchemist. This song is what I’ve used since I was a child to process painful emotions, when I felt alone, and when I dealt with physical abuse and trauma. It’s gotten me through moments where I felt like I had no one else to listen, and when I felt like the very people in my family who should’ve been there for me weren’t. This song has been there for me through my hardest times and reminded me that I’m never alone even in the most difficult terrane moments.
I’m a huge theme park enthusiast and a large part of my preteen years was spent watching amusement park ride through on YouTube and also visiting the Disney World park in Orlando. I first heard this song while watching a ride through dark ride video from hard rock Park in Myrtle Beach. At this theme park there was a ride called Knights in White satin the trip and this song was the soundtrack for the ride. I fell in love with the astounding, dreamy and haunting visuals, as well as the music that accompanied this mood. This song became a huge pivot point for me and helped me discover a lot of psychedelic music and more record records in this genre.
This is my favorite song of all time. The first time I heard it was on the soundtrack to the movie 51st dates and it was performed by the band 311. I fell in love with the reggae version of this song and then quickly discovered that it was originally sung by The Cure. This let me down a very deep rabbit hole of listening to so many other songs by The Cure and realizing that this song made me believe in and feel like maybe one day I could experience what it feels like to be in love.
