Whilst in Asda late yesterday afternoon, they played on their radio station Amy Winehouse's Back to Black, this surprised me as there are sexual and drug related references in the song, do you think this is appropriate when it is a family store and children are about?

It wasn't banned on the commercial airwaves was it?

I have never seen children listen that intently to supermarket radio.

They are usually too busy tear arsing round, screaming, getting under my feet, pulling things off shelves that Mummy doesn't want or clinging for dear life onto the front of the trolley to notice.

I do my best to shop when they should be in bed

It depends how a person interprets a songs' lyric and their understanding of how the song is meant to be perceived.

I understand what you mean though.

Not many people listen to a songs versus just the chorus.

Has anyone heard 'We are young'? A big chart hit but it has drugs, physical abuse/man hitting girl etc.

Give me a second I

I need to get my story straight

My friends are in the bathroom

getting higher than the empire state

my lover she is waiting for me

just across the bar

My seat's been taken by some sunglasses

asking 'bout a scar

and I know I gave it to you months ago

I know you're trying to forget

but between the drinks and subtle things

the holes in my apologies

you know I'm trying hard to take it back

so if by the time the bar closes

and you feel like falling down

I'll carry you home

Btw supermarket radio is pre-recorded and is only there to promote their stock, it's nothing like real radio.

Yes some can be interpreted differently although the opening lines to Back to Black are

He had no time for regret

kept his dick wet

with his same old safe bet

There's plenty of 'contraversial' stuff played in my local supermarkets!

Ed sheeran's 'A Team' is a recent biggie - but the funniest ever was when they were promoting Lily Allens album and they put the non edited version on in Cheltenham tesco's - was amusing walking up and down the ailses singing along to 'fuck you' for a couple of mins before the management stepped in!

And there was me thinking it was their customer services theme tune!!
