Popular Post bendejo 10306 Posted February 1 Popular Post Share Posted February 1 One of my fave pop songs. My Brazilian girlfriend liked it, and after I did a translation she loved it, would play it for her girlfriends. Welsh rugby teams have choirs? 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post save the frogs 832 Posted February 1 Popular Post Share Posted February 1 I never paid attention to the lyrics of the song because it always got on my nerves like most of his songs. He states he is holding a knife in his hand. Not exactly my idea of "art". Nobody pays much attention to lyrics. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mac Mickmanus 14602 Posted February 1 Popular Post Share Posted February 1 Lyrics I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind She was my woman As she deceived me, I watched and went out of my mind My, my, my, Delilah Why, why, why, Delilah I could see, that girl was no good for me But I was lost like a slave that no man could free At break of day when that man drove away, I was waiting I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door She stood there laughing I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more My, my, my, Delilah Why, why, why, Delilah So before they come to break down the door Forgive me Delilah, I just couldn't take anymore She stood there laughing I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more My, my, my, Delilah Why, why, why, Delilah So before they come to break down the door Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take anymore Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take anymore 5 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TorquayFan 346 Posted February 2 Popular Post Share Posted February 2 That brilliant fun song, "Baby its cold outside', has also had a hard time from the 'woke' crowd in recent years. Apparently Chief Musical Drip of the USA, John Legend, has recorded a rewritten sanitised version which I won't link! My favourite version - Tom Jones in trouble again . . . it's fun, remember?

Stabbing to death his girlfriend is OK to sing about ? It's not a song about "killing females", it's a fictional song lyric about one (fictional) crime of passion. Singing about a fictional situation is no different than it being written about in novels that are read by millions and no one is complaining about those. 3 2 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
