Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's Bar'n'Grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
And if the boys wanna fight, you better let 'em
That jukebox in the corner blastin' out my favorite song
The nights are getting longer, it won't be long
Won't be long 'til summer comes
Now that the boys are here again

Sir Elton ....


… It's getting late, have you seen my mates?
Ma, tell me when the boys get here
It's seven o'clock, and I wanna rock
Want to get a belly full of beer
… My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
And my old lady, she don't care
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair
… Oh, don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Oh, Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
… Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
'Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright, alright, alright, ooh
… Well, they're packed pretty tight in here tonight
I'm looking for a dolly who'll see me right
I may use a little muscle to get what I need
I may sink a little drink and shout out, "She's with me"
… A couple of the sounds that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
I'm a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass, oh
… Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
… Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
'Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright, alright, alright, ooh
… Oh, don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in

It' s really disheartening to see so many champions of women opposing this, when it hasn't even been banned; it's just been removed from the playlist of the choir. That action alone makes it more likely to reverberate around the stadium.

Not sure if folks really think they've hit on something by posting other song lyrics that also haven't been banned, or whether they will now be calling for those other songs to be taken up by official choirs.

You say that but then you get Chief Constables tweeting things like this and we have to question your defensive explanation.

I said it was banned for choirs to sing, and that's exactly what the tweet says, so I think I'm missing whatever you think this tweet is actually saying.

The tweet doesn't mention the word "chior" The BBC article he attached to his tweet did. But he ended his tweet by saying "it's time to sing something else" not "It's time for chiors to sing something else"

Also, he should have no power to enforce that on a chior.

The article that 5-0 attached, has it clearly set out in the tag line

The tweet doesn't say that the song is banned, either, or that anyone would be arrested for singing it. You know that guidance/opinion is completely different to law, right?

Thanks for clarifying, Arista. I initially thought it was about an over-zealous tickler.

It's not about it "having murder in it", it's about the old trope that a woman's infidelity and even more specifically a woman mocking/laughing at a man is a justification for that man to become violent or even murderous.

Men literally get away with murder as "crimes of passion" in court because the jury has been convinced that his poor little ego was just so broken by rage and jealousy that the outburst wasn't his fault.

That's what the song is about. Really gross.

Like I said before, heavy Johnny Depp vibes.

He'd fit right in these days . Let's invite him back. At least he was unintentionally funny.
I personally don't like the song or the message.

I just don't want it banned or censored in any way, because we are talking about a song that's from a more backward time when it comes to issues like Misogyny.

And to be brutally honest I just don't like it when people try to push for entertainment products to be banned, rather than actually doing something productive with their time.

Why do you continue to bring Johnny Depp into this , oh and if you paid attention to those Heard/ Depp threads .... you'd have seen that I talked about the relationship being toxic and ugly on both sides. But I really believe Depp has mental health issues aswell as addiction problems, and Heard & her family/ friends were doing drugs with him aswell .

So don't tell me that I defend or excuse violent men .... just because I don't see the point in banning a 60 year old Tom Jones song,which every Tom dick & Harry use to sing along to merrily ... until it suddenly starts to be 'offensive' .

You know I hate misogynistic pr1cks like Clarkson ,Piers & Tate . But you seem to be asleep when I comment on those tw@ts .

It's not a song a choir should be singing.

Why why why, you ask me.

Because it's about knifing a woman to death, and I I I, see choirs as a churchy thing..I know Wales is different though. I bet you a welsh womans choir sings it soon on tik tok

It's not being outright banned or censored though, they just don't want people singing it at sports matches... much the same as certain songs are banned at LT's Rangers matches. There's a good reason.

Then there clearly is no line. I possibly shouldn't be surprised tha you're OK with the song GoldHeart - you did support Depp over Heard, after all, as did many on here, and I suppose that mindset requires making excuses for men becoming violent when women don't behave how they want them to. By that logic, the song is fine.

Personally I'd be banning it from more than Rugby matches, and getting the sniffer dogs in for a walk round Tom Jones' vegetable patch.
Amber Heard was the one proven to be violent in that relationship.

Like you, I wouldn't be surprised at Depp being violent as well, but being honest the evidence does make it look at the very least that Heard was the aggressor.

False. Nothing at all was "proven" (it wasn't a criminal trial) and Depp is quite blatantly an abusive alcoholic, who continued to leverage the law and social media to psychologically abuse Amber Heard throughout the trial. I don't want to get back into that again on here though really and shouldn't have brought it up - that thread was an absolute mess.

People still want to put all the blame on Depp as he's the "big bad wolf " in their eyes, the evidence clearly showed she was violent and aggressive. Nobody is excusing Depp's behaviour....but Heard is no victim simple as that ! and she's a liar ! .
