I don't blame MTV, I feel worse for having watched this, let alone seeing it over and over...

They actually ban videos? WTF. This video wasn't even "risquee" it was just plain boring.

Personally I found the Robbie Williams video Come Undone a lot more risky than this and they didn't ban that one.

Well, they are supposed to be Music Television, and I think the censoring stupid videos should happen more often. Maybe MTV would be worth watching again.

Censoring should NEVER happen. If the song wouldn't be played because it sucks I would say fine.

But because of the video that is considered 'not done' is the worst reason ever. This video isn't even provocative.

MTV plays videos? Oh right, that's what MTV2 is for. What? MTV2 just plays Hip-Hop 23 hours a day? Then where do I see rock videos? MTVX! What? MTVX is now MTV hits (ie more Hip-Hop videos)?

I wish I had Much-music....

I've seen much worse than this!
I thought it was hilarious..stupid funny, but funny!

Hardly worth banning...excellent song too.

Wow I think i just lost some respect for Jack. That was a real sad attempt at a video. I never did like the foo fighters but now I think Im justified.

It wasn't a terribly good video, certainly not Jack Black's finest hour, and not even the best use of drag in a Foo Fighters video (everlong). MTV should worry more about how music videos portray actual women before they start censoring harmless idiocy.

Besides, nobody would have a problem with the video if instead of Dave Grohl spanking Jack Black, they had Britney Spears spanking Anna Kournikova. If you don't want to watch a fat man in panties, then don't. But calling this video too 'risque' when a Christina Aguilera video looks like a gynecological exam is just ridiculous.

Censorship is wrong, I like the video, and the song.
It is far less sexual than anything put out by Aguilera, BUT it involves two men. And that is Verboten!
I don't even get MTV, it was just such a treat seeing a video.
Thanks!

Two men + sexual innuendo = banned from MTV (My God! What if there are children watching?)

Jack Black is scary anyway him in a thong and pink mini is just wrong.... shouldn't ban it though thats what the on off switch on tvs is for

HAHAHA that was fuckin hilarious, stupidly funny, but funny either way. I'm sorry but everytime I see a foo fighters video, I can't stop drooling over dave grohl. EVERYTIME! He's just so damn hot. I love that tattoo he's got on his chest. OK sorry I had to get that out. Oh man what I wouldn't do to meet him... (did I say that outloud?) oops

Are you serious???

My God! Do you really think these kids are more protected by banning a stupid ass video?

As if I thought MTV get do anything stupider.....they do this.

what a strange video. i wish i were rich like grohl and black so i could sit around all day and do stupid shit like this.

I think that was the single most retarded thing I've seen in my life.. The video wasn't risque or controversial it was boring.

Wonder how much they spent on this music video.

All I can say is, thank god we have women around to wear that stuff,
because men do not cut it in the looks department.

But then again, maybe I'm biased.;)

although that video was a little on the weird side, i've seen worse on MTV. just about everything on Jackass outdoes that video 10 fold. hell, i've seen a shitload of music videos that are more disturbing....Marylyne Manson (sp) anyone or Tool. although their videos are more on the artistic side, they depict some crazy shit.

IMO, their was no reason to ban that video. it broke no rules, although it wasnt a good video.

What about 50 Cent shooting guns in a video? There was nothing harmful here. Drag Queens don't kill people, Drag Queens shooting guns kill people.

It doesn't matter if it was a good video or a bad one. It was a bad one btw, but that doesn't matter. MTV/MuchMusic play awful videos everyday. I'm tired of seeing a bunch of people dancing in a club or driving cars in videos.

IMO I think this video actually sends a good message to kids out there. If you drink, this is the stupid result. I would rather have my child watch this than a 50 Cent video.

Nope, I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic!

This video rocks! I don't have MTV anyway, so i don't give a shit about them banning it.

Yep have to agree. It is not a good song or video, but compared to what else MTV shows this is harmless.

By the way having Britney spanking Anna would be an excellent video. What a nice image, I think I'm going to have to go to my bedroom now....

wtg phred for finding this and bringing it to us.

as to the video: as already mentioned, its just a bunch of idiocy, nothing even remotely dangerous or overtly risque. btw, is Jack Black the most fearless musician/comic/actor/performer/whateverthefuckheis out there or what?
think about everything he has done. there is nothing he wont do to get a reaction. he cracks me up.

stupid video, pretty good song though. maybe Foo Fighters are ok after all...

agreed.

and if they banned <i>this</i>, why didn't they ban dirrty? jesus christ.

Exactly. Dirrty was much more risque. If anyone thinks that Dave Grohl and Jack Black in drag is sexy, then they have other issues.

Video aside, JB and Dave Grohl are comic as well as musical geniuses. :suave:

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but MTV seem to have 'banned' a couple of lame videos recently (Crapstina Gorilla) for being too risque, while at the same time playing far more shocking videos daily.

I ain't buying all this bullshit. It's just a way of getting some publicity for a song before it is released, if you ask me.

Take this thread for example.

Just remember folks, there's no such thing as "bad publicity", for the Foo Fighters, Jack Black, or MTV.
