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

These songs all have the word "Okay" (or its abbreviation, "OK") in their titles. That's the gimmick – nothing more, nothing less. That being said, many of the songs included herein are more than "okay" in quality, while some merely live up to their names. There's a healthy balance of well-known and lesser-known artists here, so give 'em all a fair chance. And please, do enjoy them! ~ JH
1) Ingrid Michaelson ~ "Be OK"
2) Ashley Tisdale ~ "It's Alright, It's OK"
3) The Offspring ~ "Kristy, Are You Doing Okay?"
4) Whitney Houston ~ "It's Not Right, But It's Okay"
20) Sarah ~ "Okay" (This song sounds great, but it's in Danish. So, for all I know, she could be singing about frog hysterectomies…or something even MORE random!)
