The radio stations don’t know what to do with Britney Spears’ new single “If U Seek Amy“!! I swear Britney is a genius – here we are talking about her again just because her new single seems to hide some profanity in the way it sounds… if that makes any sense!!
“If U Seek Amy” is considered too raunchy to broadcast because of its chorus: “all of the boys and all of the girls are beggin’ to, If U Seek Amy” – the last four words sound like “F*ck Me” when sung quickly. Go Britney!! That’s so classy!!
The chorus doesn’t even try to make grammatical sense of the phrase: “But all of the boys and all of the girls are begging to if you seek Amy.”
The spelled-out profanity puts the song into a legal gray area for radio stations.
“It’s OK to put in on an album, have fun with it, but we’re publicly owned, you know?” said Patti Marshall, program director at Cincinnati’s Q102, a pop station in a decidedly conservative Midwestern market. “We have a responsibility to the public … you put this … out and act like we’re all fuddy-duddies, like we’re trying to make moral judgments. It’s not about us. It’s about the mom in the minivan with her 8-year-old.”
You wouldn’t want your 8 year-old to start singing “If U Seek Amy” too quickly when he already learned how to say “F*ck Me” at school or even at home!! The kid can say it anywhere just not in the minivan and do not ever sing it!!
The truth is the single is just too hot for radio! So buy Britney’s album “Circus” and hear it in the minivan while you are not in the presence of a minor… I guess that’s good advice, what do I know?!?!
