They have already “edited” and entire Verse from the Dire Straits Song Money for Nothing.

I thought XM didn’t do it, but the Verse was missing from the Song when heard it the other day. PC gone mad.

Haven’t heard the “Artist” complain about his work being altered by those mean Corporate types.

The Verse?

See the little faggot with the earring and the makeup
Yeah buddy that’s his own hair
That little faggot got his own jet airplane
That little faggot he’s a millionaire

What do you think, they don’t like Earrings, Hair, Airplanes or Millionaires? LOL

Yeah, I noticed that, too while listening to SiriusXM. They just replay the intro where that "offensive" verse was supposed to be.

Usually "artists" are very protective of their creations.

I'm somewhat surprised that Dire Straits allowed the authorities to censor them.
