Moral and Ethical question, with added quiz.

I have a regular gig at a Junior School. That gives you an idea of their ages. Last night , it was requested to me that I shouldn't play a particular track. It's one which always goes down a storm, yet I've been slightly apprehensive whenever I've previously played it. Also, I had a track requested which is undoubtedly my biggest crowd pleaser at the moment, but it has the same problem as the other one. I had to substitute it with one of equal value as they say. :D
What do you think the tracks are, one's off Now 41 ( Which in itself usually means it's suitable for this age group) and the other's reasonably current.
When somebody spots the tracks, we'll see what folk think.

And Sex on Fire....

In my opinion, whats the problem. I can think of plenty of other songs with refereces to sex in the lyrics but they are ok because of the title?.

Ive never had a problem with these 2 tracks with that age range. Its only when the lyrics have profanaties that they dont get played.

Its the way the world is going. I have to say im uneasy about playing kings of leon or anything similar to younger people. Not because the kids themselves might complain or the fact the kids will hear the song and go oh sex that sounds like fun all we need is some petrol and match sticks! Its the parents or supervisors. Its better being safe rather than sorry....

You smartarses! :( Next weeks quiz will be much trickier. :D

OK then, obviously GG and JK in his many disguises are not on my playlist at these gigs ( or many others now) but would you play " Sex on the Beach " and " Sex on Fire " to a similar audience, if asked to? :confused:
It's the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea. They've all got the albums at home with the "Advisory" stickers on, which I can't play when they ask for them, but what about these two tracks? :confused:

Having checked the track listing for Now 41, I couldn't decide between Sex on the beach & Gangster trippin'
