This makes me completely sick. I cannot say anything more but what everyone else said already. I cannot believe this.

Clear Channel has a monopoly on the airwaves. They own some of the biggest stations here in NYC. Stations that I could have sworn were against each other.

What the hell is this country coming to??? There is no need to ban any song..this is still a FREE country and that's what we're fighting for.


Personally, I think when we do start bombing and CNN and MSNBC starts showing the bombs dropping on the city they should have a background music of Drowning Pool's song "Bodies".

Let the bodies hit the floor!!

<< The Beatles "Obla Di, Obla Da" >>



Wow the Fruitiest of Fruity songs gets banned.
I thought the only person that was offended by this song was me.

BTW - Kind of a joke- I'm the HUGEST Beatles fan or fanatic, if you will (ask anyone here who knows me).
I just really think this is the Biggest POS Song, well, maybe next to The Long and Wining Song...... I mean, uhhh...........
the Long and Winding Road.
This can't be for Real, Ticket to Ride??

This list amazes me.

<rant>But they're probally still playing every Eminem or M&M (however u spell it), Limp DumbSh!t, and bands who 's only talent is being white, and 'breaking stuff'. I find them Offensive to all the guys like myself. On the Bright side, It gives bands like mine hope. My songs are great and stand up to classics like 'Break Stuff' or 'One of those days'. Must've been hard to write them Riffs, and put some Music to 'em.
</rant>
I'm surprised they didn't ban Revolution, or Tomorrow Never Knows.

Flame Away! :D

the lead singer of SUM 41 called into KROQ 106.7 and asked not to play their song, FVck Authority, and said they wrote it during the LAPD Rampart Scandal.
