So a radio station received negative feed back about the song - Baby its Cold Outside and have decided to stop playing it as to not offend the 'easily offended'

I have a James Taylor version on a nice Christmas cd. I'm not one of the 'easily offended'...but I do have a sense of propriety and I think it's kinda creepy.

Anything describing romance between a man and woman is "kinda creepy" to some of you people.

Sure. Anything you say.
Just as an aside, ever notice how folks who use the phrase "You people" tend to be of a type? They also seem to like the word "troublemaker", and mutter a lot.
Nevertheless, a Merry Christmas to you.

Even worse than Springsteen singing that would be the Pointer Sisters.

Regarding the song, I wish I had the statistics on how many women are offended that liberals feel the need to pity them for stuff they couldn't care less about.

a reply to: JohnnyCanuck

A whole lotta assumption for a Canadian.

Merry Crustmas indeed.

a reply to: tjack

Yeah, that one's pretty creepy.

Hey little girl, is your daddy home?
Did he go away and leave you all alone? Mhmm
I got a bad desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Tell me now, baby, is he good to you?
And can he do to you the things that I do? Oh no
I can take you higher
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby
Edgy and dull and cut a six inch valley
Through the middle of my skull
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire

ETA: And he was 35 when he wrote that.

dead kennedys - I kill children

Misfits - I want your skull

doesnt need any further description of the lyrics !


Im glad we still have comedians and musicians and artists who will keep making art to shock , offend and inspire
as otherwise we will all just fall into this collective slumber !

and everything will be #ing COUNCIL GREY! or STATE SANCTIONED GREY!

and we will all have the same hair cuts , and listened to state sanctioned lyrics

for those of you with any soul , you will rebel , you will ROCK !

Well, all I have to say is thank heaven for little girls.

(where I'm pretty sure he actually meant little girls and not euphemistically refering to women)

Yah...I'll just have to go to my (universal health care) doctor, get a script for my (legal) weed, and hole up in my igloo with some (real) beer.
I'm sure I'll feel better soon.

Whaaaaaaaaaat? What's wrong with Lauper?

a reply to: 3n19m470

Great point. It would be beautiful, courageous, and strong minded if it was being sung by two gays.

Maybe if he was under 17. Lol.

In the novel he is an old creeper looking for a hot young piece of A courtesan.

So therefore I am offended, I think.

She opens her mouth, that's what's wrong with her. I would rather be chained to the wall and be forced to listen to Sonny and Cher or the Osmonds.

a reply to: lakenheath24

Maybe so, but it's so much better than all the sentimental #e we usually hear in a Xmas song.....and not a song for the Hipsters and Snowflakes out there....that must be a good thing!

Before you know it, even THIS will be non-pc and unplayable on radio!

a reply to: Freeborn

I get sick of hearing Christmas songs the day after they start playing them. I used to like Brenda Lee, now I want to choke her. And don't even get me started on Mariah Carey. She should be a Psyop weapon. Just put her in a room, let her unleash that JU-87 Airhorn inspired voice, and the hardest man in the world wouldn't last 60 seconds.

I always thought it said Douche. Deuce is even worse....whats he got...constipation? Can't pass a deuce?

Sorry to pick but it's revved up like a deuce.
Deuce being a 32 Ford.

I like Slade.

But every time I hear the introduction to THAT song I just want to tear speakers from walls and smash juke boxes up.

I can't imagine it being that well known over in the States but surely you must have heard it defiling the airwaves over here?

As for censorship; been going on for years, its hardly any surprise that Snowflakes have started exerting their influence in the music business.

The music industry itself has suppressed many controversial and provocative artists over the last three decades or so resulting in the bland #e that dominates mainstream music today.
Its almost as if The Sex Pistols had never been.....ever had the feeling you've been had?

a reply to: Freeborn

I've heard that one. And it sux. I blame Simon Cowell. He has single-handedly removed the soul from music.

We need a new white guy to go steal some black music again.
