@MrAverage1965 Possibly because it's been played to death on the BBC 🤣

So this is okay and acceptable with the BBC ????

George Michael had several scandals that made headlines, including his arrest for public lewdness in 1998 and multiple drug-related offenses:
Arrest: Michael was arrested for public lewdness in 1998 while driving his Bentley convertible. The story was broken by Splash News, whose motto was "Your misfortune is our fortune".
Drug use: Michael had multiple drug-related offenses.
Personal life: Michael's personal life was often in the news

Perhaps next year it will be Another Rock n Roll Christmas by Gary Glitter Doing all right with the boys and do you wanna touch could even be the other tracks on the CDs

If they play it, I guess so. I think many rock/pop music groups have run up against the law one way or another, but perhaps dead ones don't count? I tend to get my music from Radio 3 these days and so I don't hear a lot of this stuff.
