Like the 80's classic song, "Turning Japanese", which was actually about orgasms.

I wonder if people would protest that song if it were newly released today, or just have some backbone like people did back in that decade and just change the channel if they personally found something offensive?

As for Toby's song, I can see both sides of the argument. But, I don't think any piece of music should be censored - let us censor it for ourselves by deciding what we personally want to listen to.

The song is about lynching. Is it glorifying/advocating lynching or just talking about history?

And, who is Toby Keith?

And dear God what about the horses? Advocating serving alcoholic beverages for animals? Where is PETA? This is an outrage.

I was a punk rocker so enjoyed tunes like Anarchy in the UK, Holiday in Cambodia, Kill the Poor, etc. so I can't get to worked up over this one.

I think he stared in that Show Family Affair - with Mrs Beasley and Mr French

Sigh - I always wanted to live in an apartment like Buffy & Jody. Play in Central Park. Mr. French would make me dinner. Sigh.

You know, I was going to post something about Brian Keith, but I wasn't sure anyone would get my reference.

Brian Keith killed himself, that's mostly what I remember about him. Though professionally I know him more as Hardcastle than Family Affair.

Definitely more aware of him than Toby Keith.

And Buffy died at a pretty young age due to an OD.

Which caused Jody to write and record a pretty cheesy song about it.
