    I personally don't think anything of it. I don't mind it. I actually like it at times, but I do understand if small kids are around, but that's just a form of expression in the moment.

  • "are we getting something out of this...all big FUCKING TRIPPPPP"

    That's the only one that really annoys the high holy fuck out of me.

    It's such a beautiful fucking song, and it just fucking cheapens it when he replaces an amazing fucking work like "all-emcompassing" with something as puerile as "fucking"...

    And right at the most fucking heartwrenching part of the whole fucking song!!!

    I agree 100%.

    I love most additions of "fuck" (E.g., Severed Hand, I Got Shit, Bu$hleaguer, etc.) as a way to emphasize or enhance the emotion behind the lyric, but I absolutely hate that he has replaced "encompassing" with "fucking".

    Got a car. Got some gas. Let's get the fuck out of here. Get out of here fast.
  • i can agree with that... lucky my son is a bit too young yet.

    i think i remember doing the "cough" thing back in the day so that my parents (when in the car with me) didn't understand what Ed was singing

    I wonder if Jill lets him swear at home in front of his daughters!?!? LOL

    Fuck me is this still going! Has anyone noticed during Ed's rant about all the rumours of who was supposed to be guesting at the Spectrum that his accent somehow changed to an East coast one? What the fuck? I think there are maybe two Ed's.... :D
