On 12 January, the Canadian Broadcast Standards (CBSC ) 
banned antenna Money for nothing, tube, Dire Straits, original version, because of the word "fagot " (" fag" for the French, " fag" in Quebec) in the second verse the song, released in 1985.
Here is the argument developed by the CBSC " Although the word" fagg ow "in English may have been acceptable at one point in the past, it has evolved so that it has become unacceptable in most circumstances. "
we dreaming!
I never paid close attention to the words of Money for nothing , interior monologue of a vendor of equipment for the home that dreams of becoming a rock star. Here are those of the famous verse, followed by the translation:
"The Little fagot With The Earring & the makeup / Yeah, buddy, that's
His Own Hair / That little fagot's Got His Own jet airplane / That little fagot, he's a millionaire .
" The little fag with Earring and makeup / Yes man, it is indeed her hair / The little sissy is a millionaire / The little fag has his own jet .
In fact, there is a watered down version of Money for Nothing . After an initial controversy, right out of the song, Dire Straits recorded a version in which " fagot" is replaced by " mother. "It was with" queenie "," mother "," mama "or other words that the band played the track live for a long time, as evidenced by this live at Wembley in 1986 where the band shared the stage with some buddies that you will recognize easily:
But this was not the light version but the original radio that Newfoundland CHOZ FM , issued on 1 February 2010. And the words did not please a listener who complained that the word "fagot " discriminates against gays. It was after this that the CBSC s 'was seized the issue.
She was doing what this listener since 1985, it hibernates?
And what's with the resurgence of political correctness in recent years? We will soon have nothing to say ...
Moreover, the Quebec Council of gays and lesbians, the CBSC's decision is "worthy of the Inquisition . For its President, Steve Foster
: "This kind of decision night seriously work we do. Too much crying wolf, people will say we do just whining ... The ruling comes undermine the tremendous work being done to expose the real problem situations ".
A number of Canadian radio stations specializing in rock classics like k97 or Q104, decided to protest against the decision of the CBSC in disseminating the original version of Money for Nothing loop, some day for a whole hour.
Guy Fletcher Dire Straits keyboard says, on its website, having received the news with a mixture of disbelief and amusement, because these words had been controversial from the exit of the song. It believes that such a surprising decision to intervene 25 years later.
Like what, the Bullshit (with a large "C") readily passes through space and time. 1 February 2010, she made a brief stop in Newfoundland ...
Go To conclude, it is left a thin layer (no bullshit but Money for nothing). Unfortunately, it is impossible to find a live with the original lyrics. Too bad, here is one, still good in the arena of Nimes in 1992:
