Thread Name: Why does modern music sound so different
Subject: RE: Why does modern music sound so different
this threads getting more than a little bogged down in the usual negativity... oh well...

So i've never heard of the 'offending' song, and just read the lyrics...

well.. it's hardly "Sing if You're Glad to be Gay"
but it don't strike me as any more actively homophobic than any other daft comedy songs of it's era.

The fact that it's writers claim it to be liberally satirising homophobes
shouldn't be disregarded...

Our teen band of the 70s fell into a similar trap with a clumsily written anti racist song
which a fukwitted loud mouth art student writing for a student mag
claimed to be a racist song,
therefore he decreed we were a racist band to be vilified...😖
