I believe this song should not be played in the day for the simple fact that there is a blatenet expletive used in this song.
at 3 mins 40 ecs John Lennon can be heard to make a mistake on a cord and then say 'fu**ing hell'
stop the outrageous use of this language!!
any thoughts

I totally agree! The use of expletives in modern day popular culture is just outrageous! I myself listen very carefully to lyrics just so that I can spend the rest of my time complaining to the appropriate authorities. When I've finished with music, I like to complain about the demise of television programmes. Ah, the good ole' days, when everybody spoke the Queen's English and nobody knew what the "F" word meant unless they were from the gutter. I'm going to put my purple teacosy on, get my sheepskin slipper-boots on and go outside to shout at teenagers.
Oh, hang on. I'm 34, not 74.
And you people that think it's a serious question really should go to Tesco and see if they sell pre-packed "Sense of Humour". They sell everything else, it can only be a matter of time before you can purchase what you are obviously lacking.

Be real! Compared to most of todays music, this is very tame, if it's even correct. Did you know that Paul wrote that song for Johns son Julian when John and Yoko split up? Originally titled Hey Jules. They made changes and recoded it. Another fine example of Beatles genius!
I think you have a noble cause, fighting profanity, but why don't you go after someone who is blatently (literally) abusing it.

i think that you are mistaken. i have been a beatles fan since about 1964. i own and still listen to much of their music. i believe that you misheard the lyrics (or the ad lib).
the reasons why:
back in the late 60's and early 70's, the beatles music was analyzed, played backwards, studied, amplified, and basically gone over with a fine toothed comb by people looking for hidden messages. it was big news back in those days. it would have been on the news. i have never heard of anyone reporting lennon saying the F-word in Hey Jude. i heard many other ridiculous claims, but never that.
next reason:
no studio would release a record containing that back in those days. it would have been a worldwide scandal. it would have cost them millions. anything that lennon had said during recording, would have been caught by the mixing process of seperating voices from instruments in the studio.
edit-
the version that i am that i am referring to is the single released to the public in 1968. it possibly could have occured in a studio session, or in a recorded practice version of the song, but there is no way they would have released it to the public like that. lennon had gotten death threats for his comments about jesus, he knew what the stakes were for doing something like that were.

It's true, the expletive is there but you'd never notice it unless you knew it was there and listened on headphones. What I also always thought was John singing "Woh" after the word "skin" is the end of him saying "You got the wrong chord". Go to the web page listed below and you can hear it.

I have heard that song millions of times and I have never noticed that, well done for spotting it. I think that maybe when it was made in the early 70's (?) people might have said something if they noticed, but now with some rap artists and others who swear and talk about some terrible stuff, it seems a bit tame to me

Well I never heard that before I will have to listen as I like The Beatles music. There is another song he made when he and yoko got married. It takes the name of Jesus in vain so that shouldn't be played either. I can't remember what its called right now.

It's always sounded more like "bloody 'ell" to me. I picked it up about 30 years ago as a teenager and have always been amazed that the Beeb never sussed it, esp after all the fuss over LucySD and the 'turn you on' bit in "A Day in the Life"
La-lala-lalalala, lalalala Hey Jude!

I think you need to chill out a bit. Just because there is one swear word in the song does not mean it should NEVER be played. If you are unhappy about it maybe you get the record company to bleep out the swear word.

I can't say I've noticed it but even if I had it wouldn't bother me. Children are exposed to bad language by TV and Radio, older children, and Parents, You would have to ban all use of swear words during the day by anyone! Be realistic, can you seriously see it happening!!!!
