Songs That Are Banned:
"Fairytale Of New York"
This song, which hit #1 on the Irish charts and #2 on the UK music charts on Christmas 1987 and has been a holiday staple in the UK and Ireland since, was censored in 2007 due to "questionable language" in reference to gays and women of questionable vocation. The Pogues found it "amusing" and MacColl's mother (MacColl died in 2000) thought it was "rediculous." The bans and censorship ultimately failed due to viewer/listener requests.
