I keep hoping that this is some kind of horrible prank or joke.  I'm not a Willie Nelson fan in general, but I still have a hard time thinking of him as the type of musician to put something like that out.  It makes me sad too because it really does put something of a damper on how I feel about the BBM soundtrack.

I agree that the Dylan version is better, but still... All the BBM soundtrack versions are so ingrained in me now.  Sigh.

What an asshole!
I guess all those years of "clean livin" finally caught up with him.
I say good riddance to bad rubbish.
And Kenny Chesney produced it???
Talk about a hypocrite!!

Well, I'm just now catching up on this too, and I am feeling very angry and betrayed.

This man's songs were my lullabies...there's not one of them I don't know by heart.

Like others have said, profiting from He Was a Friend of Mine for Brokeback Mountain, then coming out with this homophobic trash is simply unconscionable.

Thank you for removing him from BBM Radio, Eric.  It was the right thing to do.  While you're at it, get rid of any Kenny Chesney we might have.

I feel more letter-writing coming on...

Dumbass mules.

I love country music. I grew up on this stuff. But one thing I have found, unfortunately, is that many of these country singers are homophobic. Very homophobic. I was very surprised when I found out that Willie Nelson was *cough* pro gay *cough* and I figured it was too good to be true...

I guess it was... :-\

I'm sure there are a few enlightened country music singers. It would be refreshing if we knew who they are. Dolly Parton is pro gay. So is Loretta Lynn. And I think Reba McEntire is an ally of ours. But I'm not certain about it.

Homophobia is alive and well in country music.

F*ck Willie Nelson.

F*ck Kenney Chesney.

That ketchup-splattered still is a veiled threat.  F*ck your fries.

Its a joke.

Sorry do you mean angrily, "this is a JOKE.. grrr...." or "c'mon guys this is a joke"

If its the latter, well I think you're living in some fantasy world. Those lyrics and the ketchup bottle.. if its not meant to be blood whats the significance Milo? Can you please explain? Do Gay folk like their chips (sorry french fries) with tomato sauce - is that some sort of proven fact??  >:( ;) >:

I hadn't seen this thread till today... ugh. Absolutely right Amanda - trying to cash in on both sides of the fence.

'Going down on' can mean to perform fellatio (or cunnilingus) on someone.
