Was wondering if we're getting a set for International Women's Day. And we are!

My mom heard the line "I'm still an embryo/with a long long way to go" and thought Helen Reddy was singing about abortion.

I'm only three songs in and am fully into this set. BOS everything so far, particularly this Lily Allen song (Hard Out Here) that I've never heard before, autotune notwithstanding.

So, can't say I am a huge fan of all the artists, but this was a well conceived and executed set, with a decent percentage of deeper tracks, all of which were pretty much on point. So good on DW. I will be looking forward to parts 2 and 3, which he says are coming later this month.

Totally agree.  Liked that sub-theme of "male/female double standard" in 3 or 4 tunes.
