It must just be that I am getting old.....
Joel probably didn't choose the music himself -- the show producers did.

Actually, the performance was recorded several weeks ago and there was a lot of controversy over whether it should be kept in the final product.

I suppose the producers decided that if the President didn't seem to object, that the FCC wouldn't take any action.

The taste in leaving it in the show is another debate that I don't care to get into.

However, I don't think "bitch" is one of the seven dirty words you can't say on television according to George Carlin.
