GET OFF YOU ENGLAND
According to this morning's Radio One has "banned" songs which feature the word 'England':
A Radio 1 source said: "We have been told songs that contain the word England repeatedly can't be put on the playlist because we don't want to upset anyone who isn't English. It's ridiculous."
Now, it's true that a lot of the scrabbling tunes trying to sell songs to the people with their plastic clip-on flags aren't on the Radio One playlist. But we'd guess the reason for that would be not that they mention England too much, just that they're, well, rubbish.
But then 'Radio One elect not to play Sham 69 single in 2006' isn't much of a headline, is it?

Typical cuntbabble from the BBC: There's plenty of songs on the radio that mention places in America. I'm not American - should I be offended?
I dunno - I think it's an ingenius way to stop idiots asking for that awful, awful Dad's Army song.
There aren't any good world cup songs - and the whole thing stinks of money-making.
I hope Neil and Christine Hamilton are forced to take all their unsold singles home with them. Useless, leeching parasites.
I think an ingenious way of not playing any crap records on the radio would be not playing any crap records on the radio, rather than concocting some fanciful rules about lyrical content.
quite frankly i can't believe any english people are so dumb as to not see that all these songs (i mean how many is now about 412 or something??!) are "written" to rip them off... honestly anyone who has gone out and requested infernal's "from london to berlin" (the new football orientated version of "from paris to berlin") and thinks it's about football and not about ripping people off... well... I suppose anyone who enjoys that probably doesn't have the brainpower to understand how to operate a radio in the first place!
