Subject: RE: BS: Any one speak Globish? This is serious..
I know we're down here in the BS's where a musical tie-in is not mandatory, but still I thought it might be useful to provide PoppaGator and others links to a few Esperanto music sites. First off, let me mention my own humble website, La Lilandejo, with a collection of Esperanto movement songs here and my general songlist (where the Esperanto ones are identified by flag) here. I am also the editor of the largest online Esperanto Christian hymnal, TTT-Himnaro Cigneta (with indexes for English-speakers of hymns by English title and Christmas carols/hymns by English title). By the way, I am probably the most active present-day Esperanto hymnwriter in the USA; fourteen of my texts (including three originals) are in the wonderful ecumenical hymnal Adoru.

Now to halt the blatant self-promotion ;-) ... There is a growing Esperanto wikisongbook, potentially sort of a user-edited DT in Esperanto. A great deal of information on Esperanto music is in the Esperanto Wikipedia (Vikipedio), including links to several online Esperanto radio stations that play Esperanto music daily. The Brazilian Music Express offers Net-accessible mp3s of over 100 Esperanto songs, mostly from current groups/albums.
