Hey! Sorry! But I have a question about that line from the Who song......and a few others!

Our company just recently moved to a new building in another town and I can finally wear my Walkman and get a radio station other than a bible and/or a country station!!!!! And....it dawned on me.......

How come The Who can sing..."who the fuck are you"?.......OR.....Pearl Jam can say...."harmless little fuck"........and not be bleeped by the censors.......BUT, when groups like Green Day get air play......they get bleeped out the f'in wazoo? I don't know how it is around the country or the planet........but in my little neck of the woods.......where our largest radio stations come out of Philadelphia on a "40,000 watt flame thrower" (lol!)...........the censors seem to be deaf in certain cases and extremely sensitive in others! WTF is up with that?

The Who had a song with "who the fuck are you" in it??
You might want to check that, you might be experiencing the Hendrix phenomena...."Excuse me while I kiss this guy"

Nope, the Who sang 'Who the fuck are you'. Good point, Lixy.

I remember the first time I heard that song on the radio, Lilith. The announcer cracked up afterwards and said, "Yep, there's no way you'd be able to figure out the bleeped word!"

Lilith,

The Grateful Dead - Casey Jones: “livin’ on vitamin c and *pause*pause*”. Not too long ago!

Cobalt,

“Gangsta Rap” is the most offensive. Perhaps it isn’t correct to call it rap, but I recall seeing Will Smith do a number that was quite good. I thought he was an actor, but perhaps that was early in his career.

I hear ya sista Lil! *^5*

south......I know what you're saying.....bout "scuse me while I kiss this guy".......but there is NO way anyone can deny that The Who doesn't say "who the fuck are you" on air play!

OMG! I just had a revelation! TY, TY, south! It must be that the censors don't actually know and/or listen to the songs.......but only read the lyrics! On any lyric site...you'll only see the song I posted below (I bracketed the line in the song posted)..........but when the song was recorded....The Who incorporated that line.......and it still gets past the censors! I'll have to check on "Jeremy"....but it might be the same case scenario!


Artist: Who, The
Album: Who Are You
Title: Who Are You


Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?

I woke up in a Soho doorway
A policeman knew my name
He said 'You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away'

I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin' punches around
And preachin' from my chair

Chorus:
Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
'Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)

I took the tube back out of town
Back to the Rollin' Pin
I felt a little like a dying clown
With a streak of Rin Tin Tin

I stretched back and I hiccupped
And looked back on my busy day
Eleven hours in the Tin Pan
God, there's got to be another way

Well...tell me who are you?
Who are you? (Who, who, who, who?)
Ahh *[who the fuck are you?]*
Who are you? (Who, who, who, who?)
Who are you, you, you, you, you

(chorus)

I know there's a place you walked
Where love falls from the trees
My heart is like a broken cup
I only feel right on my knees

I spit out like a sewer hole
Yet still recieve your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone now
After such a love as this?

(chorus)


*OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT......LOL! I've sung this song enough today.......I was just making a CENSOR point!*



TY sista Steph!!

jseal....I know....I know!!!!?????

Cobalt....I understand the child censorship for your personal reasons and household....and that's as it should be.....but if a radio station plays one song with "fuck" in it.....and then censors another with "shit" in it.....WTF sense does that make????????????

Will Smith was a rapper wayyyyyyyyy before he was an actor! "The Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff" or "Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince".....or, whatever!..............ergo his TV series, "The Fresh Prince Of Belair".

His song "Get Jiggy" (lmfao!....pleeeeeeeease correct me here!!!)........never finds me in my seat!

What a versitile person!

My favourite WHO song is: I can see for Miles and Miles. I think "Who the fuck are you ?" must have slipped by the censors.God, what a useless job that must be.What are the qualifications for a job as censor? High school education not important.Must be a real Ass Hole.Hate SEX is a plus. heh heh My condolence for anybody living in the Bible Belt.

Kid Rock & Cheryl Crow's song "Pictures" has the work cocaine bleeped out as well. That cracks me up. Oops, no pun intended! I guess it's depicted as glamorizing drugs when you portray a guy who's breaking up with his wife because of self-destructive bahavior as "fueling up on cocaine and whiskey".

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.

It's DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince. Will is Fresh Prince in the duo and that was his start to stardom. To my knowledge
they only did one song with cussing in it and his Grandma got on his case about it and he decided she was right... he didn't need cuss words to be good.
