The radio stations I listen to are classic rock, not aimed at children. For many years we didnât have the âradio editâ of Money, by Pink Floyd, Or Who Are You by The Who. Or so many other songs where no one noticed some profanity mixed in. Why now? And why even play Closer by Nine Inch Nails, or Killing In The Name by Rage Against The Machine? Itâs as bad as when they show Blazing Saddles on TV.
Remember: The saying is âSex, drugs, and rock & roll.â Itâs not like rock has been a paragon of virtue all these years. And rockers donât always sing the Kingâs English, either! Ever hear of âIn-A-Gadda-Da-Vidaâ? The guy sang âIn the garden of Edenâ so unintelligibly that they had to change the name of the song! And thatâs just one example.
I wish more people were aware of the socially-conscious hip-hop of the â80s and â90s, which lives on today but doesnât get nearly as much attention as the filthy stuff. Hip-hop is not limited to âgangstaâ themes.
Bleeping is done for live television. Editing is done for songs to be broadcast via radio. But then, according to the graphics next to the radio in this comic, nothing has been bleeped or edited so what the heck is he talking about?

There has been so much beautiful music written over these many centuries spoiled by some git singing
