San Francisco radio stations KFOG and KOIT have announced that during the World Series – the SF Giants are going against the Kansas City Royals – Lorde’s song “Royals” will be banned from the airwaves. Yes, Lorde was inspired by the Kansas City baseball team – George Brett in particular–when when she wrote the song. Who knows how long the ban will last if the Royals win!
Rumor has it that radio stations in Kansas City will retaliate by banning Tony Bennett’s version of “I Left My Heart in San Francisco.”
