FEMALE EMPOWERMENT songs

I am compiling songs for an abortion fund fundraiser mixed cd and I am seeking songs that are not lame that are pro-woman or pro-choice.

I have Etta James W-O-M-A-N but anything else I can think of is lame.

Ideas?

the Distillers, "Seneca Falls"
Sarah Dougher, "40 Hours"
Fugazi, "Suggestion"
X-Ray Spex, "Oh Bondage! Up Yours!"
Malvina Reynolds, "We Don't Need The Men" (this is an old-school song that probably counts as lame for you but I heart Malvina Reynolds)

The Coup: "Wear Clean Drawers" (the best feminist tune by a man I've ever heard)

Natasha Bedingfield's "I Wanna Have Your Babies" ought to be a winner.

I AM WOMAN HEAR ME ROAR

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 12 June 2007 19:27 (eighteen years ago)

I am woman watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe
As I spread my lovin' arms across the land
But I'm still an embryo
With a long long way to go
Until I make my brother understand

Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to I can face anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman
Oh, I am woman
I am invincible
I am strong

Consolidated - "Born of a Woman" or "Butyric Acid" or basically every song that's not about meat or war or slamdancing.

DJ Vadim feat. Sarah Jones - "Your Revolution"

DJ Logan5, Thursday, 14 June 2007 22:21 (eighteen years ago)

related to the Consolidated is Yeastie Girls - "You Suck"

DJ Logan5, Thursday, 14 June 2007 22:22 (eighteen years ago)

Can someone suggest a particular 'Le Tigre' or Julie Ruin track? It belongs, but It's a jumble in my head.
