Has anyone heard this song
I heard it other other day and was so so shocked by the lyrics I nearly had a heart attack 😂
Why do mainstream artists bring out utter filth like this. I really don’t like my kids (teenage) hearing this garbage….ive listened to some garbage in my time but it’s another level and is shocking to me coming from such a popular artist.
I know everyone will be like well they will hear it on YouTube/tiktok…..but I’d really like it not to be coming up on Spotify which they listen to alot 🫣

Yuck.
They'd need an instrumental version for Radio.

This pisses me off because my 10 year old and her friends love the APT song he did recently with Rose (which is admittedly extremely catchy). So his new one is bound to come up when they put Spotify on. And they always read the lyrics on the Spotify screen, which I think is worse than just hearing them! I think it's a bit off for an artist who knows they've got really young fans.

I've just asked Alexa to play it and me and my husband just looked at each other and shook our heads after the first few seconds. I'll just imagine its about cats.

Come back Mary whitehouse all is forgiven

Well it's getting plenty of publicity isn't it, what with all the googling and listening and so on. Ignore is the best bet.

Anonymous2003 · 27/01/2025 16:25

I'll be honest, I thought your post was a bit prudish til I googled the lyrics! Wtaf!

Mia184 · 27/01/2025 16:25

I have a hunch that this song will be giving those horrible cat abusers in China some new ideas…. 🤮

teapotfullofsquash · 27/01/2025 16:25

Oh ffs what have I just read 😳 it's absolutely disgusting. There's just no need.

MummaMummaJumma · 27/01/2025 16:27

I mean I’m no prude, I used to boogie on down to “my neck, my back…” but I’m a little taken aback by the lyrics.. particularly “slob on my CL😳T” 🤢

I love Bruno mars too. How can he go from recently releasing a lovely, romantic song with lady gaga, to this horseshit.

Can't wait for the Kidz Bob cover.

Put the explicit content filter on, on Spotify or there’s also Spotify kids. Even before this song, if Bruno mars is in your algorithm it could bring up songs where he sings about fucking like gorillas or having really nice sex etc, his back catalogue is not just grenade type pg songs.

That's why you block explicit content...

Would we have prefer clitoris to clit?

Dear Lord - have had to gather all my pearls together for a mammoth clutch session. Did I actually just read 'coochie water autograph'? You learn something everyday.

Particularly disgusting that Sexxy Red imagines she is empowering women with this horseshit.

Crunchymum · 27/01/2025 16:35

Slightly off topic but I managed to find the name of the song (and then the lyrics) in about 5 seconds, using Google!

JustRollWithIt · 27/01/2025 16:37

Eewww Bruno, why, just why 🤦‍♀️

Thanks guys, I will check that that Spotify filter is on ...

Remember when Cliff Richards the Millennium Prayer song was banned? Such simple times.

It wasn’t banned. It just didn’t make the Radio 1 playlist. Because it was shit.

PeggyMitchellsCameo · 27/01/2025 16:39

Just Googled the lyrics. Not just vile. Lazy writing.
Designed to shock. Boring, too.

EveryOtherNameTaken · 27/01/2025 16:40

Jeez. Why has he done this? His stuff is normally pretty good and he's established.

It's like he's trying too hard to be controversial and cool.
