Remember back in the '70's (the KEEN years) we had Barbara Mandrell's "Midnight Oil" about a woman ADMITTING to cheating on her husband. Scandalous! <br />Brenda Lee's "Big Four Poster Bed" and Conway Twitty's "I'd Love to Lay You Down" raised a few eyebrows, too.<br />Sex has lost it's shock value, so now singers just try to see which "naughty" words they can get away with.Anne Jameshttp://www.k96fm.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927785.post-50444836444096764422012-02-08T07:27:56.778-08:002012-02-08T07:27:56.778-08:00Bob Vandergrift, Jamie Slack and 2 others like thi...Bob Vandergrift, Jamie Slack and 2 others like this.<br /><br />Rick Eberhart I agree, however, unlike M.I.A., none of these "expletives" are pointed at the audience. We are hearing more and more though.<br /><br />Buzz Jackson As you know, Jaye, prior to Citadel, KIIM would never play anything with questionable language in it - the owen, Mr. Slone, didn't want to play anything that he would have to explain to his mother. Evidently we caught a lot of heat over the change. If George Strait and Alan Jackson don't need to say "@ss" to make great music, then so can the rest of 'em.<br /><br />Don Nelson The trend first started way back in the 70s. At that time WIRE, Indy "bleeped" the offending word.<br /><br />Jay Phillips Folks in Nashville would probably say we're trampling with their 'freedom to create' but all of this has to be a big negative to a good percentage of our audience...it certainly is not a positive. <br /><br />KellyWayne2: Agree...it's time to wake up<br /><br />CrystalHuffmon Crystal Primaky i most deff agree<br />Feb 08, 5:09 AM via HTC PeepFacebook and Twitter reactionsnoreply@blogger.com
