Thread: F@ck them all

The song "F@ck them all" by Mylene Farmer is pretty popular here in Russia. It was even on the top of Europa+ radio chart for a few weeks. My question is, is that song broadcasted in English speaking countries? If so, what about censorship? Is F word beeped or something? This word is not only in the name, it's in the refrain as well. By the way, when I heard it for the first time I just didn't believe my ears and I was completely sure she sang something else and it was just my brain that heard F word because it was the closest word by pronunciation :)

Here's the lyrics - http://www.phr.ru/lyrics/1141/

I myself was very supprised when I hear an uncensored version of Liberate by Disturbed on the radio here(lots of use of the F word). It might have been a once in a lifetime thing though.

I've never heard of that song, I'll have to look it up when I get home. 99.999% of the time, the F word is bleeped. So is the "hole" in "@sshole" Weird.

Here they even bleed the word "weed"

I don't listen to the radio.
But last time I did.
It sucked.
So I stopped.

OH! AND! They got rid of the ONLY good station we had! It's fucking classic rock now. WE HAVE THREE CLASSIC ROCK STATIONS! THREE! FUCKING <L:jwqe;lkjre bjha;lkrjbl;'kawjlkare;j

Tata.

English speakers use profanity more than any other people in the world but we endure the most puritanical censorship of "obscene" words. But what can be expected from countries founded by illiterate, inbred and clueless heathens (England) and murdering religious extremists (USA)* ?

Heh, objective observance!

Oh, i dunno. I think the US has murdered a lot less people than say... Rwanda.

Damn you Clear Channel!!!! Bring back our curses!!

No way thay say "%уй" (or any other матерное word) on "Русское радио" www.rusradio.ru and hardly possible on any real station, probably it was some station that broadcasts over the net only.

Actually, I heard "бл%" on Channel One. It was "Blast from the past" movie =) But I never heard such words in radio/tv broadcasts - they always come bleeped.

Well, ok, Quebecers use a lot as well, but a third of their obscene words are actually English words.

Yeah, trust me....we totally use more profanity in the US. Or at least where I'm from. It's all *&(*7 &(&^(& &)*@#_ &(^ (@)*$) *^(&@^. And that's the teachers. The students..holy Jesus they be whack.

There really isn't anywhere here that one won't hear profanity at least once in a while, except churches, perhaps (and possibly even there).

The vice-president's F-bomb in the Senate is more typical of what a foreigner is likely to hear in an American school/work setting than the conventionalized ridiculous garble that's usually spoken by senators.

Quebec is THE place for swearing, we use french swears (Putain, merde, etc.) English swears (F*ck, Sh*it, etc.) and Quebec swears (Tabarnac, caliss, osti)

And it's funny, because only Quebec's swear words are subject to censorship
