Today is World Lion Day - a day to promote conservation efforts for the big cats. Lions are one of the most iconic species. They show up in some of our favorite songs. Can you think of any that mention the king of beasts? We'll spin a set after 9am.

Here's what we played:

The Felice Brothers "Lion"

First Aid Kit "The Lion's Roar"

Bruce Cockburn "Wondering Where the Lions Are"

Yeah Yeah Yeahs "Gold Lion"

R.E.M. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight"

Weekdays at Noon
