The original version by the pogues is banned by most radio stations, ironic that it's just been voted top Xmas song ever by radio 2!

Not sure about the new lyrics but the original is amazing and i don't think should be changed just for the reason it was Kirsty Macall singinging ! I was there (very close) when she died !

'smack me bitch up' and 'pop a cap in yo ass' is not offensive, it's a celebration of culture...

Im beginning to think tbis song got barred for marketing reasons, so someone else gets xmas no 1 and with it a lot of money,

If well look at a verse in money for nothing by Dire Straits,

See the little faggot with the earring and the makeup

Yeah buddy that's his own hair

That little faggot got his own jet airplane

That little faggot he's a millionaire,

Its a hell of a lot mire offensive, but yet gets played over and over,

It dont add up,

Awesome tune, but banned in Canada for a while due to the 'f' word.

The song never got banned. Certain lyrics got censored which in a rap song nobody would have even noticed but because its tradition people get outraged.

Its such a small thing. If your desperate to hear the original just stream it

I heard it but I think faggot was changed to haggard.

I think it was playing in a shop, as I don't listen to the radio indoors.

That has been changed to "cheap and you're haggard ", but also the line "you're an old slut on junk" has had the word slut muted.

Nope, heard it loads on radio this week. Possibly the edited version though!
