Apparently, today is National Coming Out Day. Well, here’s a bunch of Songs About Coming Out. Herein you’ll find songs about coming out of hiding, the dark, the shade, the woods, and the rain; songs urging the listener to come out and play, as well as to come out, come out, wherever you are; songs about the wolves, stars, and the sun coming out (tomorrow); there’s even one about fire coming out of the monkey’s head – whatever that means. So…enjoy? ~ JH
