  3. PLease delete this if you think that two lists is too much, but when I noticed you had a song from Fear of a Black Planet, I couldn’t resist posting the unigender list that came up yesterday:

    7) Χείλι μου μοσκομύριστο – Μίκης Θεοδωράκης (Mikis Theodorakis). One of the songs my parents used to wake me up to, sang by Grigoris Bithikotsis on a poem by Yannis Ritsos. Nuff sed.
    8) Charlene – Red Rat. Why do I even keep him in my random selection? Nostalgia leads to weakness.
    9) Burn Hollywood Burn – Public Enemy (feat. Ice Cube and Big Daddy Kane). To listen to while browsing the Jim Crow Museum website.
    10) Heri jun zai lai 何日君再來 – Deng Lijun 鄧麗君, aka Teresa Teng. More tears (is that what you call ’emo’?).
