Apparently young listeners are sensitive the poor things.

Play the original or don't play it.
I guess the word Slut is offensive.
Question can we be offended it's not the original version?

Re: BBC Radio 1 will not play original version of Fairytale of New York
It's stupid but this isn't new. This edited version of the song has been around forever for radio play as have many other songs. Most mainstream radio stations don't air the lyric 'He brings a gun to school' from Teenage Dirtbag for example. Most 'explicit' songs will have a 'sanitised' version as well.
Besides I doubt anyone here is listening to Radio 1 anyway. Radio 2 will have the normal version of the song.

I shall always love this Christmas Carol in it’s original format. It’s not offensive at all.

Radio 1 is far too frantic. I'm sure the local commercial station (Heart) will play the original version.

R1 also won't play Russ Abbot's hit classic 'Atmosphere'.
