Awesome time for riffs. Sucks that they can’t play brown sugar anymore.

Really ?

 

[Val Keating]

Really ?

Yeah. The lyrics are a bit gross tbh. I looked them up after I posted that. They weren’t forced to drop it, but got a lot of heat so they chose to. The lady it’s about is spewing.

Here’s an article about it. Keep in mind that the author is from a Christian university.

“Brown Sugar, how come you taste so good?
Brown Sugar, just like a young girl should.”

And all her boyfriends were sweet 16
I’m no school boy but I know what I like
You should have heard them just around midnight.

“Just like a black girl should.”

Brown Sugar: why the Rolling Stones are right to withdraw the song from their set list

Rather than being an act of censorship, The Rolling Stone’s decision to remove Brown Sugar from their set list is a show of artistic freedom.

There were a lot of songs that sexualised teenage girls back then.

Creepy Rock Songs About Young Girls You've Been Singing Along To Without Realizing

If these horrifyingly creepy songs about young girls were written today, they might not get radio play. Sociological standards have changed a lot since the days of Neil Diamond and The Doors, though. Elvis Presley fell in love with Priscilla Beaulieu when she was just 14-years-old, for example....

Nuclear Assaults "hang the pope" not getting a lot of airplay these days either,

Lyrics

HANG THE POPE by Nuclear Assult
Hang the Pope hang the Pope hang the Pope
Hang the Pope hang the Pope hang the Pope
Hang him with a ****ing rope
Let's go to the Vatican, get him out of bed
Put the noose around his neck and hang him till he's dead
Hang the Pope hang the Pope hang the Pope
Hang the Pope hang the Pope hang the Pope
Hang him with a ****ing rope
Let's go to the Vatican, get him out of bed
Put the noose around his neck and hang him till he's ****ing dead

Imagine lining up and waiting in the streets of dreary old London for hours just to see the wooden box an old lady born into privilege, who considered you a peasant with inferior blood and didn't even know you existed, is laying in.

Imagine.

Well if these people put as much time into combating climate change as they do worrying about song lyrics then the world would be a better place on two fronts

Tracy Grimshaw burst into tears after viewing the Queen’s coffin as she lies in state in London.

Wiping away tears, Grimshaw said: “I’m going to take a moment... After all these years and she’s still doing her duty. And I really think she’d just like to get back to her husband.”

We have a winner.

The more significant issue is Hollywood being so risk adverse and devoid of ideas they just rehash old sh*t that probably doesn’t need it.

As for the kurfuffle about the actress, it’s not like the 1990 film was overly true to the source material.

In the Hans Christian Andersen version Ariel has her tongue removed as payment for her legs.
In the end she fails to win the prince then is supposed to kill him to return to being a mermaid, doesn’t and becomes sea foam. Pretty different ending.
