Does anyone else here really love The Unblinking eye (everything is broken)? I love the fact that Roger is brave enough to do that. He seems very...opinionated. I'm surprised it hasn't been banned, I mean they banned Nazis 1994 when the country was a bit more sane about whats acceptable. I suppose they couldn't deny the truth.
Who?

'Nazis 1994' wasn't banned (it was in top 30!),  Broadcast Advertising Clearance Centre has banned just one line from advertisement, Radio One removed the track to the night airings.
What other Queen songs have been banned or censored?

The BBC's Top of the Pops show banned the video of Under Pressure because it featured footage from the troubles in Ulster.

BBC Radio also muted the line "a liittle high" in Bo Rap when it was re-released after Fred's death.

The fat bottomed girl 7" single cover was redone to add panties to the girl (a damn shame imo).

No doubt the nude poster from Jazz was banned in many countries?

'Love songs' in Iran, its GH version omits them.

The Body language video maybe?

Banned? Censored? Why and in which country?

Last night I ordered the CD-single. I've only heard it one time, because I'm not a huge fan of "PC-music".
Nice to get something else than bills in the mail...
Chuck Norris never sleeps, he waits...
I downloaded the song on 4 shared.

AWESOME track.

Heard his album's going to be released this year.
I always knew I was a star And now, the rest of the world seems to agree with me-Freddie Mercury
I really like it, but I think it's not a highlight in Rogers catalogue.
it's not so bad, and not so good!
P.A
I liked the song on first listen,  but now it does nothing for me.
It isn't banned because nobody gives a fuck about a 60-year-old has-been recording a mediocre track which maybe a couple of thousand Queenfans will hear. However, I think it's great that Roger still makes new music even though his audience is pretty limited.
Way more than a couple thousand Queen fans have heard the song.. Almost 260,000 hits as I type this.. Not too shabby imo:
