a rather tongue-in-cheek mix about gender & sexuality - "I'll Make a Man Out of You" from Mulan is on the track list, to put things in perspective.





1. If You Were a Woman (And I Was a Man) :: Bonnie Tyler

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man

2. The Girls Want to Be With the Girls :: Talking Heads

The girls don’t want to play like that,
They just want to talk to the boys.
The just want to do what is in their hearts,
And the girls want to be with the girls.

And the boys say, what do you mean?
And the boys say, what do you mean?
Well there is just no love,
When there’s boys and girls.

3. Venus As a Boy :: Björk

he believes in beauty
he's venus as a boy

4. My Best Friend :: Hello Saferide

And we dance in the living room
Dance on the sidewalks, dance in the movies
Dance at the festivals, dance, dance
No men ever really dance like this

Damn! I wish I was a lesbian
Damn! I wish I was a lesbian
Damn! I wish I was, and that you were, too
So I could fall in love with you

5. Hello From Eau Claire :: Xiu Xiu

i know it's stupid to dream
that you might think of me as a man

i can loose my own tie knot
i can button up my own pants
i can buy my own cigarettes
i can pluck my own moustache

6. Woman King :: Iron & Wine

Hundred years, hundred more
Someday we may see
A woman king
Sword in hand
Swing at some evil and bleed

7. When My Boy Walks Down the Street :: The Magnetic Fields

Everyone sings hallelujah
When my boy walks down the street
Life just kind of dances through ya
From your smile down to your feet

Amazing, he's a whole new form of life
Blue eyes blazing, and he's going to be my wife

8. A Match Made in Texas :: Her Space Holiday

By some off chance
They both crossed paths
And found a certain ratio that pleased them both and made them whole

He likes wearing her clothes
She likes watching him dress
And through all this back and forth grew a certain innocence

He's not a boy
And she's not a girl
Just two individuals who made their place inside this world

They're destroying the line
It's gender refined
It's the battle for America, both of them American

9. Pretty Persuasion :: R.E.M.

He's got a pretty persuasion
She's got pretty persuasion
God damn, pure confusion

10. I'll Make a Man Out of You :: Donny Osmond (Mulan OST)

Let's get down to business to defeat the Huns
Did they send me daughters when I asked for sons?
You're the saddest bunch I ever met
But you can bet before we're through
Mister, I'll make a man out of you

11. Football Song :: Matt Fishel

Johnny is the head of our football team
He always boasts to his friends about women
I wonder if he'd carry on that way
If I told them all the places we've been in

And Johnny struts around on the football pitch
With an arrogant smirk on his face
But he wears a smile of a different kind
When he comes to stay over at my place

'Cause I'll sit there combing my hair
While he's taking off his underwear
And it's getting warmer
'Til the whistle blows

12. A Man :: Alanis Morissette

I am a man as a man I've been told
Bacon is brought to the house in this mold
Born of your bellies I yearn for the cord
Years I have groveled repentance ignored

I am man who has grown from a son
Been crucified by enraged women
I am son who was raised by such men
I'm often reminded of the fools I'm among

And I have been shamed
And I have relented
I'm working my way toward our union mended
And I have been shamed
And I have repented
I'm working my way toward our union mended

We don't fare well with endless reprimands
We don't do well with a life served as a sentence
This won't work well if you're hell bent on your offense
I am a man who understands your reticence

I am a man who still does what he can
To dispel our archaic reputation
I am a man who has heard all he can
'Cause I don't fare well with endless punishment

13. He Hit Me :: Grizzly Bear

He couldn't stand to hear me say
That I'd been with someone new,
And when I told him I had been untrue

He hit me
And it felt like a kiss
He hit me
And I knew he loved me

14. Girls & Boys :: Blur

Girls who are boys
Who like boys to be girls
Who do boys like they're girls
Who do girls like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love

15. Gay Boyfriend :: The Hazzards

Gay boyfriend, gay boyfriend
I don't really care that you are queer
Gay boyfriend, gay boyfriend
I never feel lonely when you are near

16. I'm a Boy :: The Who (Live)

My name is Bill, and I'm a head case
They practice making up on my face
Yeah, I feel lucky if I get trousers to wear
Spend evenings taking hairpins from my hair

I'm a boy, I'm a boy
But my mom won't admit it
I'm a boy, I'm a boy
But if I say I am, I get it

17. If I Were A Boy :: Beyoncé

If I were a boy, I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her, because I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Because he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

18. Androgynous :: The Replacements

Now, something meets Boy
And something meets Girl
They both look the same
They're overjoyed in this world
Same hair, revolution
Unisex, evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss
And tomorrow Dick is wearing pants
And tomorrow Jane is wearing a dress
Future outcasts and they don't last
And today, the people dress the way that they please
The way they tried to do in the last centuries

And they love each other so
Androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so
Androgynous

19. I'm Still Your Fag :: Broken Social Scene

It's a possibility to live without lips
Clinic love to fill right up with the broken kids
I swore I drank your piss that night to see if I could live
But my wrists couldn't stand the light that we missed

And I'm still your fag
I'm still your fag

You're only coming out because you came back in

20. Off the Grid, Underground :: Rae Spoon

Off the grid, underground
That's where the queers went in this town
Off the grid, underground,
All of the best songs are never found

21. For Today I Am a Boy :: Antony & The Johnsons

One day I'll grow up, I'll be a beautiful woman
One day I'll grow up, I'll be a beautiful girl

But for today I am a child, for today I am a boy
For today I am a child, for today I am a boy

22. Going Gay :: from The Mighty Boosh

HOWARD: Tell you, if I don't get some action soon I'm going gay.
VINCE: (laughs) What, you?
HOWARD: What's so funny about that?
VINCE: You're like the least gay person I've ever met.
HOWARD: I could go gay, you've got me all wrong! I could go gay like that sir! (snaps)
VINCE: You can't just go gay, it's not like buying a ladder.
HOWARD: I've seen men checking me out, you know? Checking out my hot pumpkin ass.
VINCE: You're ridiculous. Anyway that is so out of the blue you've creeped me out a bit. What is wrong with you?
HOWARD: Don't worry, I don't fancy you, alright?
VINCE: 'Course you do, all men do! I'm the confuser! "Is it a man? Is it a woman? Oh, I'm not sure if I'm a man!"
