You are the gays if you get offended by this song.So that must mean that the people how work at cbcc are gay... - Sat, 22 Jan 2011 10:57am

Those lyrics are exactly how I feel when I see Bieber pulling up to a five star hotel in a Ferrari.
Totally offensive, and I wouldn't play the song on air either. - Sat, 22 Jan 2011 11:07am Edited: Sat, 22 Jan 2011 11:11am

...well I'll be fucked. I guess I did!

..but if it's okay for Alanis Morsette to ask "...Are you thinking of me when you fuck her?" from You Oughta Know, or for Roger Daltry to ask "..Who the fuck are you?" from Who Are You....then why is the CBSC going down this road?

...and then there's the fun filled world of Gangsta Rap... - Sat, 22 Jan 2011 3:31pm Edited: Sat, 22 Jan 2011 3:40pm

What, are you like a huge Dire Straits fan?


Alanis moaning about getting "fucked" is a far cry from calling someone a "Faggot" repeatedly.
CBC has far too much class for that. - Sat, 22 Jan 2011 5:33pm

gimmie a fucking break you hippies... the song's been around a long time; give it a rest, its not on every single station like theoryofanicklefault.
the song is older than most on this board(outside of a few people who've been around here a loooonnnng time)... I bet anyone 17 and younger wouldn't have a clue who dire straits is. And by banning the song now, what does that do? They already made their money from it... and at the end of the day, him saying 'faggot' (x 3) is also a far cry from what most kids listen to these days in most EVERY 'rap' song... a simple bleep would've solved this whole issue which has been blown WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY out of proportion... what's worse, a guy saying fag three times or listening to Eazy E runnin' on about the bitch he slapped with his dick last night*(if a bleep can censor a song like that enough to play on the radio; why should Dire Straits, a long time respected band, be subject to any difference?) - Sat, 22 Jan 2011 9:14pm

Ji, the song is totally offensive, and has no need to be on any current playlist. The term "Faggot" in this case is used in a slanderous way towards a minority community and verges on hate crime. - Sat, 22 Jan 2011 10:28pm

Mooseknuckle; you're playing devils advocate just to get a rise.
gay people dont need you to stand up for themselves; and quite frankly a 20+ year old song hasn't offended anyone thus far, so stuff it you fucking hippy.

What about all the racially motivated music? Black people calling themselves nigger, or white people preeching about the perfect race? Or how about this, a white person rapping and calling his black friend 'my nigga' ... or how about kids these days watching mtv and seeing most EVERY show/video on there laden with skin, drugs, alcohol setting a proper example of our society... but a song that's from most of our parents days(or our younger years for those that apply! there are few of us on here) that hasn't offended ANYONE since it came out; aside from the stupid fuck who complained now. Why not ban Jersey Shore? or maybe every 50pennies clone...

stupid fucking non employed non taxing paying society draining fucks that have nothing better than complain about shit that means absolutely nothing. - Mon, 24 Jan 2011 9:53am

Comparing this song to rap is just stupid.
Money for Nothing doesn't offend me so much as just make me feel uncomfortable. What would you think Ji, if you were listening to the Q at work and those lyrics came on while serving a customer.
Would you sing along?
I don't think so.

Who gives a crap about a greasy old brit pop song anyways?
Gawd, let it go already

No I wont "give it up already"... you're the one who feels uncomfortable about the song. I happen to love this song; and am much younger than you.
As for work; well you shouldn't be singing ANY song while trying to sell something to someone... has a future shop employee ever come up to singing a song that's on the radio? fuck no... why would this be any different? As a matter of fact, it comes on the radio ALL the time on the Q; and that's what we listened to at work and this song has come on while helping customers...I've never felt uncomfortable AT ALL(oh yah, cuz it was the CENCORED VERSION). The word 'faggot' shouldn't make you uncomfortable... a bundle of sticks is hardly offensive.

Now, comparing it to a rap song is different in what way? Both have offensive lyrics to the respective people who actually get offended by certain music. Personally I dont like hearing black people call each other 'niggs'. Its a derogatory and extremely offensive word... how is that any different from a dire straits song? I feel the same way you do about 'faggot' when black people call each other their 'niggaz'.
And quite frankly, Dire Straits popularity probably saw a rise due to this fiasco of bs.
and we wonder why people internationally laugh at Canadians... its times like this that make me almost ashamed*(the Uk was on top of clockwork orange... it didn't take them 20+ years to figure it out and then ban it... why the fuck does this song get bit now?) - Tue, 25 Jan 2011 12:00pm Edited: Tue, 25 Jan 2011 12:04pm

the song is totally teh geigh, and so are you for liking it so much.




Rap is a type of "specialty" music(?), only the cleaned up versions get airtime.
If there is a cleaned up version of MfN, then just play that.

Ji can get out his old turntable at home and listen to the "faggot" version to his heart's content. - Tue, 25 Jan 2011 2:44pm

rofl so I like something you dont and Im all the sudden "the gay"? is that any better than listening to a song with lyrics that say 'faggot'? You just called me something that would make alot of people feel uncomfortable. Me, however, knowing the kind of person you are around here; I dont really care what you have to say, cuz your life is 100% harder than mine... I haven't a worry in the world.

The only reason I can see why you are so uncomfortable, is that you are a closet gay dude that need to come to grips with reality.There are lost of gay Asians, don't be afraid.I'm sure you will fit right in.Unless you truly are but ugly...then there is no hope for you.

Just a little concept on what I consider the difference between gay woman.A hot gay woman ,that dresses all nice and dose her hair,and still will occasionally fuck a dude,is called a lesbian.A somewhat homely looking girl(in most cases it's hart to tell what sex they are)who wear mens clothing,and need to shave ..these are called dikes .Now the biggest and most notable difference is...I still may have a shot at the lesbians.Dikes don't like anything shot at them from a man.
