Thanks, Vic for posting a link to your interesting website. I have a friend who is from The Gambia. I'll pass this link on to him, too.

Thanks also, Piers Plowman, for sharing information about the CD produced in the 1970s in Britain of a school music class singing pop songs. I'm sorry that I don't know about that CD. I can imagine that even then the music teacher had to be careful about which pop songs that were selected for such a project. And nowadays so many of the lyrics are so sexually explicit that a teacher would really have to carefully choose which songs students would record.

Of course, many of the students already know the words to these explicit songs.

Sigh.
