So, with the decision to ban the song 'Delilah' being sung at the Principality Stadium, due to the lyrics being about a man murdering his partner....using the same logic, what other songs need banning??
Smack My Bitch Up - The Prodigy
I Shot The Sheriff - Bob Marley and The Wailers

"Killing in the name of - Rage Against the Machine
Violent Pornography - System of a Down
Stan - Eminem"
Of course...great suggestions.
And the top two are cracking tunes |

Ooh I don't know about this one actually. Don't want to be all 'woke' (  ) but I've grown up somewhere where people mindlessly sing horrific songs at sports games and it does actually taint real life. I wouldn't have put Tom Jones in that category to be fair! |

They've banned a few nursery rhymes, and changed a few characters names in the aristocats Disney film as not to offend too.. give it a few years no one will be able to say anything, we will become a silent world for fear of upsetting someone.. |

That daft copper should ban "onward Christian slodiers marching out to war." Smacked of war glorification and may praising the crusades???
Then thee's gansta rap/grime. Or does that have some woke protectorate surrounding it.

It really is ridiculous..I think if all songs that had dubious lyrics were banned we would be left with very little music.
I’m not offended in the slightest by any song I see it as artists telling stories through music and sadly the world is not all picket fences and roses. |

"Plenty of artists guilty of murdering songs so they should all be banned too "
Agred, I listened to Radio 1 for the first time in forever and came to the conclusion that the 'artists' rely on creating ear worms which stay in your head because they are annoying not because they are actually any good |

"Isn't the real purpose to raise awareness of domestic abuse? Ie, get people talking? "
Where did you see that? I thought the background was much slimmer than that. The wru have been put in the public eye by someone calling them racist and misogynist. The ceo has resigned and they need to be seen to be doing something. This is something. |

This would be the perfect time to comply and have the last laugh.
Thanks to Space and Cerys Mathews, we have the wonderful-pantomime-villians of songs "The ballad of Tom Jones".
(It would be funny to see this one climbing to the top of the charts).
Give this one an airing and us non-Welsh can belt out at full volume at the tournament "and I don't come from Wales"
What did I do wrong?
Oh you nearly drove me cuckoo
Am I really all that bad?
You're worse than Hannibal Lecter, Charlie Manson, Freddie Krueger
Why are we still together?
Oh I can't leave until you're dead
You mean 'Til Death Do Us Part'?
I mean like cyanide, strangulation or an axe through your head
It was lucky for us I turned the radio on
They say that music soothes the savage beast
There was something in that voice that stopped us seeing red
The two of us would surely have ended up dead
You stopped us from killing each other
Tom Jones, Tom Jones
You'll never know but you saved our lives
Tom Jones, Tom Jones
I could never throw my knickers at you
And I don't come from Wales
So haven't solved our problems
You mean we hate each others guts
I still wanna poison your pizza
And I still wanna cut off your nuts
I phoned the marriage guidance
I tied the phone line round your neck
I'm sick of all this hatred
Well that will be the arsenic making you sick
You were about to drive me over the edge of a cliff
As I tried to jump out I knocked the stereo on
You changed your mind and then slammed on the brakes
It was lucky for us we bought his greatest hits
You stopped us from killing each other
Tom Jones, Tom Jones
You'll never know but you saved our lives
Tom Jones, Tom Jones
I could never throw my knickers at you
And I don't come from Wales
And now the war is over
I've lost the urge to break your neck
I owe my life to 'What's New Pussycat'
Delilah stopped me hating you and wishing you dead
Oh I used to call you Satan
And you were Cruella de Vil
And now you call me your Delilah
And I am not your Lucifer
And I am just your pussycat
But just a word of warning now
Just in case we ever get tired of his voice
I know the Mafia, Godzilla, King Kong
And I know an atom bomb that's going for a song
You stopped us from killing each other
Tom Jones, Tom Jones
You'll never know but you saved our lives
Tom Jones, Tom Jones
I could never throw my knickers at you
And I don't come from Wales
You stopped us from killing each other
Tom Jones, Tom Jones
You'll never know but you saved our lives
Tom Jones, Tom Jones
I could never throw my knickers at you
And I don't come from Wales

Suzanne Vega did a better job, he would have done a better job quoting her song lyrics. This would improve public relations and encourage people to keep an eye out, for the subtle clues.
Luka.
My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes I think you've seen me before
If you hear something late at night
Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
I think it's because I'm clumsy
I try not to talk too loud
Maybe it's because I'm crazy
I try not to act too proud
They only hit until you cry
And after that you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
Yes I think I'm okay
I walked into the door again
If you ask that's what I'll say
And it's not your business anyway
I guess I'd like to be alone
With nothing broken, nothing thrown
Just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am
My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes I think you've seen me before
If you hear something late at night
Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
They only hit until you cry
And after that you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore |

"We will be banning Jerusalem Next lmao
I will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land. "
I'm not sure it should be banned, but might be a good idea to ditch such a shite song.
Opening line - "And did those feet..." - No, no, they didn't.
The song is rooted in British exceptionalism and the idea that Jesus came to our shores (a view genuinely held by William Blake and 'British Israelites'). The point of the sing is that England is/will/can be the New Jerusalem apparently foretold in the Bible. |

I'm pretty sure Liam Howlett said that Smack My Bitch up is an expression to describe taking something to the maximum or extreme?
The video though did star Teresa May going on a massive bender and getting naked |

They aren't. They've asked choirs not to include it as part of their 'set'. |

Well, analyse this.
Im the only poster who put "Smack My Bitch Up - The Prodigy". No one else mentioned it.
So, its a safe and logical assumption it was aimed at me. Does that make sense??
My thread was actually light-hearted. And not totally misleading. It has been banned in the Principality Stadium, for the choirs to sing pre match.
I dont think that's too 'mis-singforming', is it??
