This is most strange.

I'm a hip hop fan and some of my favourites tracks, that are considered classics, the lyrics are misogynistic and frankly most of Lil Kim's back catalogue is obscene.

I'll accept it that a choir is unlikely to ever perform any of those tracks but to take this action against Delilah seems strange.

The arts, in general, are filled with horrific stories/scenes/characters that are considered classic's.

Lets explore the term 'Bodice Ripper'. Is it me or does it suggest sexual violence? When the bodice has been ripped off what do we think happens next? And do we think think the women are consenting to it all? There are so many things that can legitimately be questioned so why go after Delilah. As I say to me, this is strange
