After yesterday's songs mentioning rock music, listener Gordon from The Bronx challenges you to come up with songs that mention any other genre of music. So we're looking for lyrics about country, bluegrass, blues, and more. Are there any songs that mention alt-emo thrash metal? We may find out.

Hear your requests weekdays after 9 a.m.
Today's set:

  • John Cougar Mellencamp "Pop Singer"
  • Arthur Conley "Sweet Soul Music"
  • John Lee Hooker with Santana "The Healer"
  • Cracker "Teen Angst (What the World Needs Now)"
