Well Mike, you could have mentioned your own track: "The Struggle Of
My People", that track is great and features a poem of Maya Angelo (sp?)

Subject: (313) Poetry To Music
Does anyone know of any poetry set to electronic music?
I wondered if it's been done. I collect these sort of projects -
traditional poems set to music (as opposed to spoken word). I started
after buying Nikki Giovanni's album which is stellar. I just got an
incredible album RADA did a while ago with Shakespeare readings as
well as some songs - Bryan Ferry sings the immortal "Shall I Compare
Thee..." It's more traditional pop, the music, not electronic.
I realised lately that Propaganda's A Dream Within A Dream is Poe's
poem set to music (funny, I assumed it was Shakespeare), but want
other examples.
