The funny thing is, the article actually states:
"Suggestive 1978 hit single considered by Universal Music Group to be too raunchy"

No. That's not why they dropped it. Corporations which produce what you eat, and play are subject to funding based on CEI. This is why corporations are changing what you are allowed consume:

It's almost like comedy. Or is that Tragedy? Tragic-Comic. Ask

Trying to get some more Shakespeare under my belt without going to a play or reading Shakespeare. I'm an English major, but sometimes I did use the Cliff's Notes.

This evening's viewing: 2015 adaptation of Macbeth, with Michael Fassbender & Marion Cotillard (swoon).

For some unknown reason the introductory text was in French, despite it being an English-language production. Just as well I have been practising on Duo & could read it...

For Labor Day, the work of the poet according to Shakespeare’s Theseus:

The poet’s eye, in fine frenzy rolling,
Doth glance from heaven to earth,
from earth to heaven.
And as imagination bodies forth
The things unknown, the poet’s pen
Turns them to shapes, and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name

A Soliloquy I’d forgotten caught me yesterday from “Hamlet.” Here, an evil(ish) King opines that he must repent of the crimes that gave him the Crown. But he refuses to give up the spoils of his crimes (power.) He knows, therefore, there can’t be forgiveness. How like . He dies by his own poison in the end. So much truth in these old plays- that we allow these tragedies to repeat is the real tragedy, always.

Tiny love notes attached with gum cover the courtyard walls at the possible family home of Shakespeare's muse for Romeo & Juliet. It is said that if you leave a declaration of your love at Juliet's House you and your lover will be together forever.

WashPost: This scholar is pulling back the curtain on race in Shakespeare

"For Karim-Cooper, then, understanding and loving Shakespeare has always been intertwined with issues of race, culture and identity. It’s what prompted her, in “The Great White Bard,” to survey depictions of race in five Shakespeare plays while analyzing the trajectory of debates about the Bard’s relationship to the subject. In her book, Karim-Cooper studies representations of Aaron the Moor in “Titus Andronicus,” Shylock and the Prince of Morocco in “The Merchant of Venice,” Cleopatra in “Antony and Cleopatra,” Caliban in “The Tempest,” and Othello in his eponymous tragedy ..."
