    I've been lurking on this list for a while, now, and I'm
    very impressed w/ the high signal-to-noise ratio here.
    Anyway, it's about time I post.

    This is to those who live in SoCal, and live within
    listening distance to KCRW 89.9FM. There's a show on
    weekday evenings at 10:00pm called "Chocolate City".

    Lately, they've been playing a few songs which have
    caught my interest. If anyone here could help me
    identify (or better yet locate) these songs, I'd
    appreciate it.

first, we have a song sung by 2 French women

    I have absolutely no idea what they're singing, but I love
    the way they do it. This is the only French song being
    played on the show in recent times as far as I recall. If
    anyone caught the name of the song or the artists, please
    reply.

second, Ursula Rucker && 4Hero?

    The song I'm thinking about has Ursula reciting poetry from
    the point of view of Mother Earth (and how her children don't
    treat her well). There is some drum&bass in the background,
    and the combination of that and the poetry makes for a very
    enjoyable listening experience (for me at least). If someone
    knows the name of the track and the album its on, please
    reply.
