buckeyemike Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 WOW.... Well, J. Edgar Hoover once found himself in a similar predicament (sort of). In the early-1960s, the FBI boss and his troops investigated whether the song's lyrics violated federal obscenity laws. Triggered by complaints from parents and other tightasses (who sent the FBI copies of the supposed "Louie Louie" lyrics), the G-men struggled to determine just what it was the Kingsmen were singing. But even when they slowed the 45 rpm single down to 33-1/3, the agents remained stymied. This was one case Hoover's boys couldn't crack. 329615[/snapback] Good thing J. Edgar's not alive to see what passes for entertainment today. Or the parents who complained about the unintelligible lyrics...hmmm, we can't understand it, so it must be something dirty.
