Not that lame Cows album.

But a friend and I were recently discussing the immortal stopping power of the word "cunt" (at least in America.) There might not be a more potent swear word in US culture.

Niether of us could remember ever coming across "cunt" in a lyric. Can you? Bonus points if it's an American recording artist.

"Noonan" by Mr Floppy

"...and said 'i'm ready now bitch, ain't you feelin' these kicks, cunt?"
- eminem "any man"

i'm sure there are about 20 profanatica songs that use the word. interestingly, i can't think of any mentors songs that use the word.

"Where Are You" Joie Dead Blonde Girlfriend contains the line "I'm cold and I'm frustrated/ Because I can't forget that cunt".

A quick skim of Let's Sing It reveals that KMFDM, KoRn, Happy Mondays, The Creatures, Jack Off Jill, The Luniz, Necro (well that's a surprise), Nate Dogg, ODB, Liz Phair, Arab Strap, Zakk Wylde, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Taproot, HEDPe, Lou Reed, Trick Daddy, Rialto, Gus Gus, Atari Teenage Riot, Guns N Roses, Ghostface Killah, The Pixies, Kid Rock, Redman, Amen, and Kool G Rap have all dropped the C bomb at some point in their careers.

Butthole Surfers, of course. OK, it wasn't them that said it in that song, and the person who actually said it needed a tape manipulation assist to say it. But it counts, doesn't it?

Sting actually shouts "CUNTS" towards the end of the Police's "Dead End Job" (which, for the non-trainspotting collector, can be found on the MESSAGE IN A BOX boxset). Actully, in "Re-Humanize Yourself" on GHOST IN THE MACHINE, he says something about someone having "their hands in the air with the other cunts!" too. Potty mouth.

Could be wrong, but don't The English Beat liberally sprinkle the dread 'c' word throughout "Two Swords" on I JUST CAN'T STOP IT, ala "Even though the cunt's a nazi NAZI!"

Then, of course, there's Derek & Clive.

The reason that the Kinks got banned from the U.S. for 5 years was that Dave Davies called this radio broadcaster who was doing a bad Beatles impression "a cunt."
