MK should play MFN every night during next tour. That's a good reason to tour again.
And ask his good old friend Elton to join on stage.

I read a story on this on Yahoo - Music Blogs, Behind the Music - how do "reporters" not cover their subjects better - look at this for a completely bollox statement

That is true though, 20 years since "MK's iconic act" (ie Dire Straits) released an album.

Strangely, I haven't seen a word about this in either the British press or on British TV!   Have they missed it!   ;D    Now if it had been Robbie or Bono ...... ;)

I've just posted this on Guy's forum:

The Canadian radio ban on MFN is a good step forward, but is still way too shy for our civilization to really shine. In fact, the entire DS/MK catalogue should be banned, for MK being a dangerous and seditious activist, who has been offending every single decent person in this world for decades. Take "Tunnel of Love", for instance: an explicit sexual allusion to women's vagina, highly dammaging for our children; "Telegraph Road" and "Why Aye, Man" are diffaming all the companies who provide nice jobs to everybody on both sides of the Atlantic; "Iron Hand" diffames Margaret Thatcher and has unacceptable violent content (at the very least, "blood" should be replaced with "ketchup"); And aren't "Brothers in Arms" and "All that Matters" insidious apologies of incest and paedophilia, respectively ? What to say of the horrible "Your Latest Trick", who offends every single truck owner with the line "prehistoric garbage truck" ? What about "Boom, Like That", isn't it a clear insult to all fast-food lovers in the US and elsewhere (that is, billions of people) ? Even worse, "Remembrance day": a discriminatory song that laments about the victims of 9/11, but does not say a *word* about the children of Palestine! Worst of all being "Why Worry", which adds insult to injury by defining the world as "mean and cruel" ! So offending for us, citizens of the world; Shouldn't be the lyrics changed to "lean and dull" ?

Yes, I read your post, Herlock, but I thought "Remembrance Day" was written about WW1 and WW2, not 9/11.

Oops, yes, I got mixed up maybe with "If this is goodbye". Well, anyway, you get the idea :)

I think the best thing to do, is everyone download the song from Itunes and try and get it to Number 1 in there country, particularly Canada ;) Then see what radio stations do :lol
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.
