    I was listening to Sleight of Hand album track and the part where he sings "Mondays were made to fall, lost on a road he knew by heart" and I remembered hearing a live version where he sang "lost on a road he knew by fucking heart." Not my favourite song choice to insert an f-bomb.

    Sleight of Hand could make my top 25. Forgot how much I love this song. It's easy to do when PJ has 100+ great songs.
    Another habit says it's in love with you
    Another habit says its long overdue
    Another habit like an unwanted friend
    I'm so happy with my righteous self

    Not read 29 pages so this might've been covered already but I think Ed adding a swear to Bushleaguer enhances it

    "The haves have not a fucking clue"
    Happy up here in my tree

    Totally agree with the OP
    Ain't it funny when things change so much, it's all state of mind?

    I thought it was cool back in the day. I guess growing older has changed my views on several things.
    This being one of them. No need to cuss during songs. I think it cheapens the emotion. It also stinks
    because I will not listen to the PJ channel around my kids. Just my 2 cents....

    Have to say, I like the F bombs. To me, it's authentic PJ, and there IS emotion in it. And I do have kids (14, 16) and we listen to PJ Radio all the time. Just goes with the territory, part of the deal. Oddly comforting.

    I doesn't cheapen Ed's emotions. He's got a potty mouth, always has, probably always will. It's completely genuine coming from him. It's just how he talks and sings. Accept it. ;)

    I'm sure in Sirens, "This here town" will become "This F'n town". Not wishing it will happen but guessing it will happen.
    Up here so high I start to shake, Up here so high the sky I scrape, I've no fear but for falling down, So look out below I am falling now, Falling down,...not staying down, Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down, Drown in the river

    I meant that it cheapened the emotion for me....not Ed. Maybe my choice of words were incorrect.
    Been a fan since the beginning and always will be! I just don't need cuss words to understand the
    power of the music!

    I understand. :) But I don't think it's going to stop, so hopefully it doesn't impact you too much! ;)
    I personally feel that the word fuckin' adds extra impact to pretty much anything, and that's why it's a good word. So I fuckin' like it. :lol:

    Dear OP and everyone who agrees:

    What the fuck happened to you in the last 22 years?

    I just don't get it, and I'm glad that whatever it is didn't happen to me.
