Karaoke crack down

Reason reports, The Chinese government is concerned about people singing risqué songs in karaoke bars. So it is rolling out a program in test cities in which karaoke bars can choose songs from a central database. The approved songs will exclude those with sexual content, political themes and foreign slang.

Umm. What does that leave?

So much for getting my CWalk on in China and drinking Kristyle while the powleece be hatin on me in the Kareoke bars....

Do they honestly think that banning this will have any effect on behaviour whatsoever (apart from driving it underground?)
