Dynamic Range Radio After Hours - Beck's "Timebomb"

I try to keep my playlist reasonably worksafe, which means that there are songs I love that I won't play on account of the lyrics. I'm far from a prude, but I'm well aware that more than 50% of internet radio listening is done from the office, so the last thing I'd want is for one of my listeners to get in trouble with their boss because of something that was played on my station. You'll still hear the occasional swear word on Dynamic Range Radio, but I try to avoid it as much as possible, especially when the obscenity is impossible to miss.

So when I come across a track like Beck's latest single "Timebomb" which has a very obvious obscenity at the beginning, and a couple of more subtle ones near the end, I'm torn. I love this track, but I probably shouldn't play it, so the best I can do is offer up a YouTube link here on the blog for those of you who haven't heard the song yet, and remind everyone that the lyrics are definitely not safe for work. Unless you have a really cool boss.




PS - This appears to a user generated video, and if so it's a pretty impressive piece of work. This is better many "official" videos I've seen.

PPS - No, you can't borrow my headphones.
