It’s not taken much for Beatles songs to get banned over the years.
The drug references in A Day in the Life and Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds were too much for the BBC, while it only took a reference to “knickers” in I Am the Walrus for Auntie to ban it.
Now, 50 years on, Sir Paul McCartney ’s new single, Fuh You, has already offended some of the more conservative radio stations in the US – and it was only revealed yesterday.
The rocker, 76, says: “It needs promotion and stuff. There was a lady in America who’s a very famous DJ and if she plays it it’s a great thing, you know?
“However, she’s very religious so they’re all worried about the title ‘Fuh You’. So I said: ‘Well ‘Fuh her!’”
Indeed. Of the title, he insists the phrase is “open to interpretation” – but admits it is a “raunchy love song”. Ooh-er.
Paul’s new album, Egypt Station, is out on September 7 and he kicks off a UK tour in December.
Can’t Fuhing wait!
