Members enthusiastically shared songs that help them through shelter-in-place, with musical tastes spanning everything from old school R&B and new wave to country, Motown, classic rock, and showtunes. Several members described how specific songs evoke powerful memories or provide emotional comfort, including Ella Fitzgerald reminding one member of their mother's voice, Whitney Houston's 'I Look to You' offering reassurance, and 'I Will Survive' serving as a 27-year theme song since diagnosis. A recurring theme was music's power to lift spirits, help members stay grounded, and provide a sense of connection during isolation.

I have been listening to a lot of pink Floyd especially dark side of the moon. It reminds me of growing up, playing my dad's vinyl with my cousins.

Anything by Stevie Nicks. I am also on a Kim Carnes marathon. My musical tastes doesn't change. Anyone ever heard of "Everything But The Girl"?

For some reason I've been listening to Father figure by George Michaels an awful lot lately. I guess for me , it's the reassurance that everything will be okay.❤️🤗
