From God to Sex on the Radio

Just saw this interesting news piece in USA Today. Thought a link was in order:
KFYE-FM hasn't budged from the Fresno-area dial, but it's about as far as you can get from the Christian music, sermons and Bible stories it was broadcasting until about a week ago. Now it calls itself "Porn Radio" — "all sex radio, all the time," with a suggestion that people under 21 not listen.JG
Songs with little in common except suggestive titles and lyrics fill the playlist, including "Why Don't We Do It in the Road" by The Beatles, "Sexual Healing" by Marvin Gaye and "Nasty" by Janet Jackson. Tamer songs are heated up by adding recorded moans and groans.
The change, made after the station was sold this month, was met with several non-sexual groans from some residents.

One of my students took a "borrowed" iPod on our missions trip earlier in the month. One of the songs on it: "Sexual Healing."
It was his mom's iPod. - At 8/01/2006, Chris Knight said...

Maybe it's still a Christian station but they're too hung-up on Song of Solomon :-P

Alright, so I tried a trick from Song of Solomon the other night... Take it from the crazy newlywed, unafraid to try anything... 6:5b-6 isn't that big of a turn-on... something about lost in translation...
