ever wonder what queer kids are listening to these days? last monday at PRIDE Youth, we had our "Tapes" activity (really should be called "CDs" instead) where each of the teens get to bring a piece of music and talk about why they brought it and what kind of meaning it has for them. they talk about it for a few minutes and then we all listen to the song in its entirety. kids usually pick songs that have very meaningful lyrics, usually very literal to what they are feeling, or sometimes, it's their favorite song of the moment or maybe they just want to show off how cool they are for finding the most esoteric band/artist there is. no matter, here's the song list:

Christina Aguilera, Pink, Lil' Kim, Mya - Lady Marmalade
Marietta - Destination Unknown
Ani Di Franco - Virtue
Sarah Mclachlan - Fumbling Towards Ecstasy (Live)
Erin McKeown - Fast As I Can
Moxy Fruvous - King Of Spain
The Specials - Stupid Marriage
Radiohead - Exit Music (For a Film)
Jefferson Airplane - Somebody to Love
Johnny Clegg and Savuka - Dela
Tracy Chapman - At This Point In My Life
