ClearChannel, one of the biggest owner and operator of radio networks in
the country, has already instituted a list of banned songs on its own
initiative, not even bothering to wait for the DOJ to give it a figleaf.
The ditties deemed too subversive to be played include such
hate-mongering, anti-American tunes as "99 red balloons" by Nena.  Go
figure.  More details can be found here:

"sheepdog       standing in the rain
bullfrog        doing it again

some kind of happiness
is measured out in miles

what makes you think you're something special
when you smile


childlike       no one understands
jack knife      in your sweaty hands

some kind of innocence
is measured out in years

you don't know what it's like
to listen to your fears


you can talk to me
you-can-talk-to-me
you can talk to me

if you're lonely
you can talk to me"
