The Cure for All of My Blues
Da Vinci’s Notebook is a hysterically funny a capella group. One of their songs (mp3 ) starts out with a man singin’ the blues and makes the transition to the rousing refrain:
I take a look at my enormous penis
And my troubles start a-meltin’ away.
A Calgary station played the song, and a listener complained it was obscene. Once again, Canada demonstrated how to be mellow .
The listener’s complaint that the song was obscene fell flat before the [Canadian Broadcast Standards] council’s members, who said on Friday the item did not break its code of ethics. “The discussion of penis size is not in and of itself sufficiently unequivocally a sexual matter that it can be said to be in breach of the code,” the council said.
