BBC Radio 1 will not play the original version of Fairytale of New York by The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl this Christmas, because its audience may be offended by some of the lyrics.

The station said young listeners were particularly sensitive to derogatory terms for gender and sexuality.

It will instead play an edited version with different lyrics sung by MacColl.

But the 1987 original will still be played on Radio 2, while 6 Music DJs can choose between the two versions.

???

Didn’t they learn ANYTHING from f*ing around with LoHaG?

 

Morons.

This is such an invented story, they did a revised version in 1992 using the word haggerd instead of faggot. This has been the normal version played on radio for 25 years. 

 

But it’s news now and those looking for outrage have latched on to it. 
 

You’ve been played @kevinjohnsonmbe

Of course it’s been the same for years, I’ve listened to it for years.
 

Even had it played by the Black Fridays who were our wedding band!  

WWW.BLACKFRIDAYBAND.CO.UK

Black Friday are a high energy folk and celtic punk rock band from Cornwall in the United Kingdom

 

 

Its the same sh1t every year. 
 

Just like the dog in the Dambisters. 
 

Every year the same from the BBC, every year the same ‘outrage’ from Victor Meldrew. 
 

It’s become as ‘traditional’ as turkey & stuffing. ??
