Orwell 1984:
“’Don’t you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossibl
e, because there will be no words in which to express it.’”
I picture John Cleese waiving his arms as he runs around the stands yelling, “Stop it right now!”
Old man river , he just keeps rolling along.
Wanna Bet.....
Sung by a Commie.
Revealed: All Americans could be banned from living in any of the 50 states because there was once slavery in America
And what of this fave ditty?
“Kum ba yah” (”Come by Here”) is an African American spiritual of disputed origin, but known to be sung in the Gullah culture of the islands off South Carolina and Georgia, with ties to enslaved West Africans.
Jimmy Crack Corn, and I don’t care...
Hope they never try to stop the Welsh from singing Bread of Heaven. It is said when they played The All Blacks (oh dear) the New Zealanders were shocked when the audience in the stadium belted out their song.
So do this mean that Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page and many other English rock musicians that interpreted the blues will now be banned too?
sung best by Sinatra.....who was a lot of things, but not a commie
This hymn was actually a codeword message of escape and liberation via the Underground Railroad, the “angels” who helped, the river crossings arranged by Quakers and others
If anything this song and other hymns used as code should be celebrated
I wonder when somebody will go after Mick and Keith for “Brown Sugar”.
Will it ever dawn on blacks what’s happening to their cultural heritage at the hands of democrats? Will the defacing and removal of MLK (which will happen sooner or later...he was a sellout or uncle Tom or something) do the trick?
Not sure - I was thinking of the baritone - big black fellow - who sung it in the movie showboat
They should sing it the entire first half of their next game, just as Texas students should sing the Eyes of Texas for the first half of their next game and Florida students should chant “Gator Bait” for the entire first half of their next game.

“Brown Sugar”
Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in a market down in New Orleans
Scarred old [Skydog] slaver knows he’s doing alright
Hear him whip the women just around midnight
Brown sugar how come you taste so good?
Brown sugar just like a young girl should
Drums beating, cold English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wonderin’ where it’s gonna stop
House boy knows that he’s doing alright
You shoulda heard him just around midnight
Brown sugar how come you taste so good, now?
Brown sugar just like a young girl should, now
Ah, get along, brown sugar how come you taste so good, baby?
Ah, got me feelin’ now, brown sugar just like a black girl should
I bet your mama was a tent show queen
And all her boyfriends were sweet sixteen
I’m no schoolboy but I know what I like
You shoulda heard me just around midnight
Brown sugar how come you taste so good, baby?
Ah, brown sugar just like a young girl should, yeah
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, woo
How come you... how come you taste so good?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, woo
Just like a... just like a black girl should
Yeah, yeah, yeah, woo
