Parts Of Songs You Don't Realise The Meanings ( Well I Didn't )

[Bobbisox1]

Freezing Saturday afternoon so we are warm watching Banned Songs by the BBC that were on BBC 4
I always thought Lola by the KINKS was about a prostitute , it was about a transvestite although it was banned for that, it was because it originally contained the words Coca Cola ??
It's really worth a watch , the BBC 'banned' all the Death Songs like Tell Laura I love her and Johnny Remember Me
I want your Sex by George Michael

[Hopkirk]

Apparently Ray Davies had to cross the Atlantic to dub in Cherry Cola, because the BBC wouldn't play it with Coca Cola mentioned.

[Hopkirk]

That George Michael song is by a long way my favourite of his, but is never on the radio.

[bobbinwales]

Yet they play things like "I wanna sex you up" , "lets talk about sex"

[Bobbisox1]

Yes, just seen that Hoppy,
Tom Robinson , Sing if you're glad to be gay, never heard that one before , :0))
And anything contains Bang in the words because of the Gul War !

[Bobbisox1]

[burlyshirley]

What's wrong with Coca Cola ?

[Bobbisox1]

It was advertising BS and the BBC dont , haha

[bobbinwales]

Glad to be Gay was only a B side but is so well known a can't remember what the A side was. ( ("Don't Take No for an Answer" ??)
Think it was an EP
