Rufus Wainwright - Gay Messiah (US TV)

Big fucking deal if a kid hears this!! All my life I heard how EVIL gay people were and how they were going to hell, guess what I'm still gay. Maybe they won't go through life hating themselves like I did. Or try to get married to a woman because they think that's what God wants them to do. I broke her heart by the way, it was one of the most awful things I've done in my life. She was an amazing woman, but guess what I was Still GAY. You don't convert people or children, we are who we are.

Quelle vraie émotion !
Je l'adore, sa musique ^^

@dbonjy And why is that? Have you spoken to God and ask Her what she thinks about the song?

@getmadgetmad1 I think you are rigth...and besides. how can anyone know what God thinks? has enybody talk to him? From what i have read His/Her human manifestation(jesus) only spoke about love...not about hate and represion towards those diferent from us. The only thing i wanted to say is that I, as catholic, dont think that use a cross is a bad thing, because Jesus was murdered in one of those by a Represive Empire, and it was a symbol of power for those who put him there.

I'm not upset about the lyrics (though they aren't great), but it's just a bad song.

I was raised by a straight couple. I turned out ok. They didn't convert me...

Just like Jack Black & Tenacious D

This was the song he was promoting at the time though. It's not being played on any children's radio stations, and this show is not a children's show anyway. The only way children would hear it would be if they were watching a show where they talk about stuff like this that has a TV-14 rating.

Or searching for a Meet The Robinsons song as I was. He still could have pick a better song knowing that this would be out in a media that his kid fans (and yes he has them) would be at. That's really all I am saying. I don't want my kids to hear about cum and whatnot form a singer that they like because he sings a lot of the Pixar style movie songs. Same as I don't want Montana and all the other teen bops sing or portraying that either. What ever happened to modesty?

That I can understand. I just don't think it's fair that the artist can't write what they want to write about without kids having to be exposed to it. He's only singing it on an adult show, so I think that's fine. It's not really his fault if a kid looks it up, and finds out about it.
