I just got ambushed by the radio playing The Drugs Don't work.
It has got to be one of the most intense songs ever written.
But I feel like it should come with some sort of: ‘switch off your radio now if you don’t want to find yourself doing uncontrollable and unjustified weeping’ style public warning notice…
They have restrictions on like seeing cocks on telly before the watershed (lovely, cheeky cocks, which are clearly just a natural part of growing up / just good old honest, British fun)
… but apparently playing a track that has the capacity to emotionally rip people apart at any time of the day is totes fine.
Like just putting it on , after another track. just casually… like its the most normal thing in the world… seems like irresponsible broadcasting to me.
get on it Tipper Gore y’old killjoy!
edit: I just heard it on 6 music, on the Huey Morgan show, and he did actually introduce it with a warning that it was a very emotional track.
THANK YOU Huey, clearly SOMEONE has been reading my blog and taking heed of my evil bidding.
