I love the innuendo... Still - the FCC has TOO MUCH POWER!  I wonder if this song would be allowed airplay, without censorship. Well, Plant doesn't overtly refer to "balls," so maybe it would fly under the radar of the censorgods.  Then again, most rap music just gets all the "objectionable" words bleeped (I don't care for rap, but it's pretty funny to listen to, because it's mostly a great beat and five or six words followed by a blank beat.)

And Nickleback's "Rock Star" can talk about popping pills with a Pez dispenser, but the word "drugs" is censored (this is on Jack FM, pretty much anywhere that travesty of mis-programming exists.)  "Hotel California" can say "Haven't seen a god-damned thing."  Warren Zevon's "Lawyers, Guns and Money" has the word "shit" bleeped.

I"m confused - I guess I need to do more digging on what the "holier-than-thou" FCC has as a Bible. Chances are, it'll get complicated - that happens when dealing with a mega-bureaucratic dinosaur.

I will shut up now. Got litterboxes to clean and a world to save. {#Rolleyes}

Great, no doubt. Indeed Mr. Johnson's lyrics sounded much more risqué than this awsome version, but still has that spicy touch.
