Boghead ranter Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 49 minutes ago, throbber said: Quite like the new Aviici song Sos but when they play it on radio 1 they edit out the word “drugs” which features in the chorus so it’s fairly obvious that it’s being omitted and almost ruins the entire song. It also exits out the words “weed” and “blow” at the start. Compare that to the new Vampire weekend song which quite clearly says “Oh Christ!” Numerous times as well, that’s surely a more offensive thing to hear on the radio than the word drugs?! The song has just started playing on the radio as I finish typing. 44 minutes ago, GordonD said: Reminds me of the song "Bang Bang" by B.A. Robertson.

And Stranglers' Golden Brown got played, uncensored, every time, despite being about heroin abuse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find its usually the other way around. If you're needing a sink of hot water you have to plan about an hour ahead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet ‘Come On Eileen’ by Dexy’s Midnight Runners actually had a different meaning, but got away with it as there were no profanities. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
