    Ear muffs!.......COCK, BALLS

    In all serious the swearing is what makes Ed, Ed. Yes, there are instances where the F Bomb is not needed whatsoever, however, it does help make the whole PJ concert experience unique and is pretty much depends on whatever Ed's mood is.

    I'm no prude and am not the kind of person to get offended by anything really and I'm not saying it offends me but when Ed throws swear words into songs that don't have them normally it doesn't really do anything for the song and put's you right off singing along. It's also pretty inconvenient as I have to cough in the car or at home so the kids don't hear! :D

    Faithful - "through all of this fuckin noise I'm through with screamin'"
    Severed Hand - "You'll see dragons after 3 or 4 I said fuck yeah"
    Sleight Of Hand - "Trapped on a road he fuckin' knew by heart"
    There's even a version of Black with, "I fuckin' know you'll be a sun, in somebody elses sky"

    There are tons more I can't remember right now but it really does fuck all for me!! :D


    I'm sorry but I think you are listening to the wrong music if you can't accept an artist on stage pouring his soul out with everything he's got to give.

    It's fucking rock music.

    I've heard the jonas brothers don't swear during their show's. Maybe you should check them out

    I'm no prude either. But sometimes I think he strips the song of its original impact by adding the f-bomb. And then sometimes he ADDS to it.

    I think this:
    Severed Hand - "You'll see dragons after 3 or 4 I said fuck yeah"
    is way more effective than the studio version...I even put that "fuck yeah" in there myself every time I listen to the studio version.

    These don't add but take away from the song's original beauty/wisdom/impact:
    Present Tense - "all en-fucking-trip..." (what is that even supposed to mean?)
    and the OP's Sleight of Hand example...but heck, I'll take the "fuck" in there if they just play it AT ALL!!!!!!! :)

    Works in some songs, not in others.
    A bit sad it has become standard in some songs, like In Hiding etc.

    But in some songs it adds to it.

    Oh, where oh where can my fucking baby be?
    The fucking Lord took her away from me
    She's gone to fucking heaven, so I got to be fucking good
    So I can see my baby when I leave this fucking world.

    We were out on a fucking date in my fucking daddy's car
    We hadn't driven very fucking far
    There in the fucking road, up straight ahead
    A fucking car was stalled, the fucking engine was dead
    I couldn't fucking stop, so I swerved to the fucking right
    I'll never fucking forget the fucking sound that fucking night
    The fucking screamin' tires, the fucking bustin' glass
    The fucking painful scream that I heard last.

    Oh, where oh where can my fucking baby be?
    The fucking Lord took her away from me
    She's gone to fucking heaven, so I got to be fucking good
    So I can see my baby when I leave this fucking world.

    When I fucking woke up, the rain was fucking pourin' down
    There were fucking people standing all around
    Something fucking warm runnin' in my eyes
    But somehow I found my fucking baby that night
    I lifted her fucking head, she looked at me and said
    "Hold me darling just a little fucking while."
    I held her fucking close, I kissed her our last fucking kiss
    I found the love that I knew I would fucking miss
    But now she's gone, even though I hold her fucking tight
    I lost my love, my fucking life that night.

    Oh, where oh where can my fucking baby be?
    The fucking Lord took her away from me
    She's gone to fucking heaven, so I got to be fucking good
    So I can see my baby when I leave this fucking world.
    Oh, fucking oh

    Of course he shouldn't and I'm not saying he shouldn't swear in any song, I just wanted to know other opinions to see if people think that adding a fuck in the middle of a line in a song where there normally isn't one actually works for every situation? Does it make the songs any better? My opinion, sometimes but not always.... if you think it's great, fine. If you don't then that's fine too.... :roll:
