In honor of this week's (hopefully big, hopefully permanent) gay rights victory, I kicked around a few songs to use for the Friday Genius Ten, but honestly, there's only one that's right---the Gossip's song about the struggle for gay rights. I'm obsessed with this song, in part because people say there's no real protest music anymore, and frankly, this is one of the best examples of how it's morphed and become something entirely new. It's the revolution you can dance to! Leave your mixes or comments about anything you like in comments. Open thread.
