In the Air Tonight - #PhilCollins (January 1981).

This seemingly harmless #song by Phil Collins has been #banned on 2 separate occasions. The first time was in 1991, after #BBC forbid 67 songs from airplay due to their perceived connection to the war occurring in the #PersianGulf. The second time was in 2001, when #ClearChannelCommunications #prohibited 162 songs from the airwaves after the #911Attacks.

@PhoenixSerenity I watched that exact video last night. There's a lot going on in that song and I never realized what made it sound the way it did until I read about it.

@firephoto It's a deeply moody & powerful song. His divorce & heavy emotions around that helped with the spontaneous lyrics. The track is one of my faves from his catalog of music works. I played his debut solo album a lot, when it first came out. I had the vinyl & cassette. Well composed songs become timeless classics.
