Keith,
A protest song is a hard sell, at any rate. Very few artists are going to take a chance on alienating audences,particualrly as hard as it is to get attention these days.We have some thought's dedicated to that on another thread here dedicated to "protest songs.' There are many reasons for this, most importantly that there have been so many protest songs, movies, actors, etc. that have been doing this in the past 10 years, almost all have lost that impact and have not made money, so they lose attention from the general audience who thinks "Oh God, not another one." In Nashville, they are pretty much turned off at the first line, but from time to time one does get through. I can't imagine however, the majority of the American audience understand the meaning of the word "Bolloicks" i know this primarily because one of my best friends is from Manchester and it is a great fun laughing at the language. We also have dozens artists and writers here that are from England, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and we are separated by a common language.

"If someone is truly a jerk, or truly is not deserving of any positive reply from you, polite indifference is the best response you can give. Do not insult. Do not slam. Do not follow the urge to be nasty. Simply be politely indifferent." –Brian Austin Whitney
