Off Topic OLOF's political thread

Was he "Caught in a Trap'

 

Might just be “suspicious minds”

 

Should have been doing the 'Jailhouse Rock' for that

 

Don't be Cruel

 

Perhaps he "Can't Help Falling In Love'

 

He was nowt but a hound dog

 

I was just going to use that one

 

Perhaps it all stems from he was bought up 'In The Ghetto"

 

There were some seriously worrying songs written back in the day.

Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen springs to mind and didn't Saint Bob Geldof sing about Mary of the 4th Form and that would have been in the 80's FFS.

Fortunately the sexualization of young teens does seem to be a thing of the past but OMG what were people thinking.

 

And as we know, only the strong survive.

 

Only if you're a bit of a 'Hound Dog'

 

"Groupies" a euphemism of the music industry

 

And then from a Jack to a King

 

He wanted to be their teddy bear

Bill Wyman, David Bowie, Jerry Lee Lewis, Iggy Pop all supposedly guilty of under age sex. JLL actually tried or did marry his 13 year old cousin if I remember right?

In regards to your comment on songs, Iggy Pop; He dated a groupie Sable Starr he released a song “Look Away” it contains the verse “I slept with Sable when she was 13 Her parents were too rich to do anything”…

 

Ends up as 'Burning Love '

 

And then you've got Michael Jackson and that Savile pervert, I'm sure there are more

 

Is that why there was Fun in Acapulco

 

Sky TV have a documentary “Look Away” it’s had some good reviews, about 80s bands and under age groupies

 

Yes, I imagine there are some 60-70 year olds who get a little twitchy about these historic investigations.

 

I hate Michael Jackson, I can’t stand him but… Out of all of them I believe he was the only one who couldn’t see what he was doing was wrong.

He was mentally scarred, I doubt he had sex with young lads but I’d say possibly very questionable behaviour… If he was like me or you he should have been locked up but I believe he did what he did with an innocent mind
