I heard this on the news this morning in Toledo, OH. Some radio stations are removing Jeremy from their rotation due to the horrible tragedy at Virginia Tech.

I understand their reasoning because it is a horrible event that happened. Hopefully the song won't be pulled off the air for too long.

I'm pretty sure everyone knows how it goes by now anyway. You should email them and suggest a song to be played in it's place, mabye light years or long road.

Political corectness turned to absurdity. The song should be played more now, not be banned.

What happened in Virginia was absolutely horrible, but pulling Jeremy from the radio because of it is fucking retarded. Not to sound insensitive, but this country grows more pussified every goddamn day.

Right on dirtyfrank. We do that in Iraq every fucking day! One more example of abused power in this country. Since that tragedy, I've listened to Jeremy a few times and it seemed to uplift my emotions!

so who else called in a radiostation and requested jeremy today?

They shouldn't play Jeremy because there's a hundred better PJ songs to play... tis' the bullshit though

Maybe they'll replace it with...

Janie's Got a Gun?
Shotgun Blues?
Big Bang Baby?
Creeping Death?

That's just off the top of my head. WTF?? Way to cut things off at the root, that will solve all our problems!?

I guess they should probably pull all of Nirvana's songs too
