Cleveland Radio Station Conducting Poll With Dubious Results

The song “Baby It’s Cold Outside” has been under attack by feminazis and SJWs. They maintain the lyrics depict a man coercing a woman, possibly by tainting her drink, into having sex.

I really can’t stay
(But baby it’s cold outside)

I’ve got to away
(But baby it’s cold outside)

This evening has been
(Been hoping that you’d drop in)

So very nice
(I’ll hold your hands, they’re just like ice)

My mother will start worry
(Beautiful whats your hurry)

My father will be pacing the floor
(Listen to the fireplace roar)

So really I’d better scurry
(Beautiful please don’t hurry)

But maybe just a half a drink more
(Put some records on while I pour)

The neighbors might think
(Baby it’s bad out there)

Say what’s in this drink
(No cabs to be had out there)

I wish I knew how
(Your eyes are like starlight now)

To break this spell
(I’ll take your hat, your hair looks swell)

I ought to say “no, no, no sir”
(Mind if I move in closer)

At least I’m gonna say that I tried
(What’s the sense in hurtin’ my pride)

I really can’t stay
(baby don’t hold out)

Baby it’s cold out side

I simply must go
(But baby it’s cold outside)

The answer is no
(But baby it’s cold outside)

Your welcome has been
(How lucky that you dropped in)

So nice and warm
(Look out the window at that storm)

My sister will be suspicious
(Gosh your lips look delicious)

My brother will be there at the door
(Waves upon the tropical shore)

My maiden aunt’s mind is vicious
(ooh your lips are delicious)

But maybe just a cigarette more
(Never such a blizzard before)

I’ve gotta get home
(But baby you’d freeze out there)

Say lend me a coat
(It’s up to your knees out there)

You’ve really been grand
(I thrill when you touch my hand)

Fox-

According to Fox 8, WDOK Christmas 102.1 removed the tune after one listener called the radio station and suggested it’s not appropriate to play the 1940’s classic in 2018.

“It wasn’t really our decision,” WDOK host Desiray told the outlet. “It’s the decision of our listeners.”

“People might say, ‘Oh, enough with that #MeToo,’ but if you really put that aside and listen to the lyrics, it’s not something I would want my daughter to be in that kind of a situation,” she continued, explaining that the “the tune might be catchy, but let’s maybe not promote that sort of an idea.”

According to Fox 8, the Cleveland radio station said they conducted a poll on its website with the majority of voters in favor of removing the song. However, the results were not visible online, Fox 8 reported.

A separate poll on the radio station’s Facebook page did show results and they were quite different: 92 percent out of more than 600 voters were in favor of playing the song while 8 percent thought it was inappropriate.

!snip!

Certainly sounds like the radio station is lying about their poll, like good leftist lemmings.

Even if this IS what the song is about, why would it be banned? It would simply be a song about a date rape. A fun, upbeat, seasonal date rape song.

We can handle it.

  1. I guess these folks never heard any songs by Gary Puckett and Union Gap.

    “Young girl get out of my mind
    My love for you is way outta line
    Better run girl
    You’re much too young girl”

    Or

    “This girl walked in dreams
    Playing in a world of her own
    This girl was a child
    Existing in a playground of stone
    Then one night her world was changed
    Her life and dreams were rearanged
    And she would never be the same again
    This girl is a woman now, and she’s learning how to give
    This girl is a woman now, she’s found out what it’s all about
    And she’s learning, learning to live”

  2. If you want to ban another song, ban the sanctimonious, racist, bigoted liberal hymn “Do The Know Its Christmastime”. Listen to the words of it that call Africa dreadful, a place of doom, a place where nothing ever grows except fear and tears, where they are condemned to a place that is so cursed it gets no rain.

    After listening to that lyrics of that hate filled and depressing song who would ever want to live there? Who would think Africa is anything but a cursed “SHIT HOLE”?

    Trump never called Haiti a Shit Hole, but was lied about having done so, and he was the devil. These hate filled liberals and demorats SING about Africa being a rotten Shit Hole, paint it as hell on a earth and a prison sentence, and they have legions of morons humming along every year that Africa is a Shit Hole…. nice work liberal scumbag devils. As always, the radical hate filled demorat racists get medals and ribbons for their hate and arrogance. They sing songs about their slaves and pets and it make their conscious feel better.

  3. These people should probably watch Neptune’s Daughter. The duet originally written by a husband and wife to perform at Christmas parties for fun , remember fun, was featured in the movie . The first part is a man singing to a woman, it’s cute. The second part reverses it. It’s when the woman is singing it to the man that it gets a little uncomfortable if not “date rapey” on her part

    I say bring it on. Start polling, not only for truly offensive and demeaning lyrics, but also for insipid and stupid lyrics, breathy-voiced singers, and auto-tuners gone wild.

  5. I don’t tolerate entities who like to think of themselves as 15 year old Politically Correct Hall Monitors!!
    In these days with so much competition with other radio stations, CDs, Satellite Radio, Internet Radio, records and tapes, this is suicide. WDOK is being mocked by other stations for pulling a stupid stunt like this.
    Thanks for the link Captain John. They got my comment.
