    If people cared as much about hearing the song before Bell and Rogers announced this as they apparently do after, they wouldn't have pulled it in the first place.
    I dunno... these numbers are pretty impressive for a song that should only be looked up by the 50+ crowd... and seasonally

    Put it this way, how many of you wouldn't hesitate to punch this guy's lights out if it was your daughter, gf, or wife that was stuck in the song's situation?... Not to mention the fact that no one had answered my question as to how old Neptune's Daughter is in the movie and how old the man pursuing her is.

    I'm all for free speech and I also think we are at times being too ridiculous with all this PC stuff but in my opinion this song is highly inappropriate and have no problem leaving it and other songs like it in the past.

    As for "rap music" I get a real kick out of you old farts who are complaining. You obviously don't know what you're talking about because that type of music hasn't been popular for at least a good 10-15 years now (turn on the radio some time, it's been either dance music with one or two lines of vocals or its country-pop, or its mumble rap where they're mumbling about who knows what) and any of it that does get air play is heavily censored.
    You're literally the worst kind of person, I am happy to not know you in real life.

    I'm offended that you didn't put Christmas in the thread title and instead 'old winter holiday song'

    What is wrong with people these days!?!?!? Its a song from the 40s with vey different meaning that what you perceive today. People now a days need to give their head a shake

    I get your point, but using your logic it'd be okay to play a song about hanging a black man from a tree?

    Actually I don't get your point, does it really have a different meaning? I don't think it does...

    Anyways, this has no impact in my life, I don't listen to the radio and I hate Christmas music.... Funny to watch all you people complaining about other people complaining.

    but... read?

    ”If we look at the text of the song, the woman gives plenty of indication that she wants to stay the night,” wrote Slay Belle for Persephone Magazine. “Her beau in his repeated refrain ‘Baby, it’s cold outside’ is offering her the excuses she needs to stay without guilt.” None of the woman’s lines indicate that she feels unsafe or is uninterested — they’re all concerned with societal expectations (even the “no” line expresses that she “ought” to say it). “Basically, the song only makes sense in the context of a society in which women are expected to reject men’s advances whether they actually want to or not,”

    Get a fucking grip.

    Seriously.

    If you're offended by an 80 year old Christmas song then you need to sit down and take a look at how terrible your life must be.

    More funny to watch you try and validate the complaining as being legitimate. You sir, are worse than Hitler.

    It's not really all that impressive when you consider most of the popular Christmas songs pass the 100M+ mark.

    White Christmas, Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree, Jingle Bell Rock (this one's second most popular version has 50M on it's own), etc. all pass it.

    Even the worst Christmas song of them all, the one that brings nothing but pain and sorrow to all that hear it has over 70M (Wonderful Christmastime).


    It's a competitive airtime market out there, it's not worth it to go to bat for 'Baby It's Cold Outside' when there's a profit to be had. Do they gain anything from publicly announcing it rather than just quietly not playing it? Who knows. But these are companies desperately trying to appease to Millennial and younger now that their traditional listening audience is dying away. Like I said, it isn't much of a gamble.

    I hope you don't like ice cream, because it'll be a big crusade for you going after the ice cream truck song.

    I had to actually look this up Rage, wow, I had no idea. But you see that's my point, you will never again hear those lyrics again associated with that song... Why? Because it's clearly not right. That's all I'm saying.

    Generation before boomers pretty much mostly insist that this is normal courtship.

    Guys literally have to ask 100x. Any girl who doesn't say no for the first 99x is a slut. That's pretty much my take.

    And if you want to be on this giant crusade...

    Better stop all the kids in the world from playing and singing ring around the rosie.. because guess what... it has some serious dark history to it.

    On the one extreme you have people who banning this and that, and on the other extreme, you have people that look at this stuff and don't see anything wrong with it.

    I actually DID have Christmas in the title, but changed it to holidays because the song has nothing to do with Christmas except for it being winter. It usually is played a lot around Christmas, but I don't associate it with Christmas.

    That was the logic in that. I seriously had it typed out and was all "this doesn't make sense" and then changed it.

    You are confused. There is nothing extreme about this song, or anything wrong with it. #liberalrevisionism at its finest

    Must depend on the school and principal. My kids schools all post and discuss Christmas.
    Guy I'm working with confirmed his grand daughter, at a Catholic school, does not have/is not allowed to have Christmas plays in Calgary. "Holidays" only.

    its not really an extreme... it shows a level of thought beyond knee-jerk reaction. why do you still refuse to comment on this interpretation?

    ”If we look at the text of the song, the woman gives plenty of indication that she wants to stay the night,” wrote Slay Belle for Persephone Magazine. “Her beau in his repeated refrain ‘Baby, it’s cold outside’ is offering her the excuses she needs to stay without guilt.” None of the woman’s lines indicate that she feels unsafe or is uninterested — they’re all concerned with societal expectations (even the “no” line expresses that she “ought” to say it). “Basically, the song only makes sense in the context of a society in which women are expected to reject men’s advances whether they actually want to or not,”
    at the time the song was written things were very different than today. if anything this song was progressive, part of the long battle for equal rights, now its being demonized cause people are quick to forget what once was. if anything songs like this should be cerebrated, cause without them the shift would have never began.

    But how am I supposed to be offended, if I pay attention to facts?
