The Pogues recorded the alternative line “you’re cheap and you’re haggard” back in 1987 when they recorded the original so it’s hardly as if they’re being edited now, the band themselves wanted an alternative. But sure let’s all get upset over it :roll:

fed up of the stupidity more than upset....the upset are those that look for offence everywhere , see life as a challenge to change things into their version of the perfect world when its not perfect , never has been and never will be...

The OFCOM Broadcasting code contains hundreds of words that are banned from being spoken/sung on air during shows before the watershed. Thousands of songs have radio edits, if you listen to the radio for an hour I guarantee you’ll hear at least one song that is an edit of the original recording. Why this is even news I’ve got no clue.

To be honest mate radio channels have been dubbing out some of the words for years ,it's only with this BLM crap it's being made a thing of again.

There's a twist in this..the lyrics will be changed if the song is played on Radio 1 but not on Radio 2.
Reason is the Luvvies in the BBC think the younger snowflake Radio 1 listeners will be offended by the words (faggot)
These are the same youngsters who are having parties, raves, fights etc, killing people with covid. This doesn't offend them.

Writing was on the wall since the beeb refused to play Man Dont Give f**k by SFA. Been a downward spiral from there.

Completely separate.

This sort of shite went round long before BLM.
