Clip below of a 2009 performance of "Killing in the Name" by Rage Against the Machine on BBC 5Live (national broadcast). Some guys in England setup a Facebook page asking people to download this song with the goal of preventing the XMass song from the X Factor from reaching #1 on the charts for the 5th year in a row and it worked (Rage donated all proceeds to charity). So the BBC invites Rage on to do the song and the hosts asked them not to swear......you can imagine how that went. Scroll to 8mins in for the money shot. :rock:

 
I remember that. They almost flipped their lids. They banned it also.
