Since the song was co-written by Sting, I wonder if he or Knopfler wrote the verse with the word. In my opinion, the ****** in question was Boy George. (with the earring and the makeup yeah that's his own hair!)
Private company they can do what ever they want......you cant say ****** , or ***** on here.
Ah, yes. True. I didn't consider the fact that it's the public Canadian airwaves that we're talking about. Still, every country has its standards. Social conservatives are regularly outraged by profane language, nudity, or "adult" themes on American television.
It's about time! Shame on Sting for being a part of this back in 1985. He always portrays himself to be so kind, giving and progressive. I can recall singing this song out loud with a friend of mine and emphasizing the f@ggot part of the song. That kind of indifference has no place nowadays.
