Kaiser Chief front man Ricky Wilson has slammed British girl-group Girls Aloud for covering their uber-catchy pop tune 'I Predict A Riot'.
Girls Aloud have been covering the tune in recent shows - something Wilson doesn't have a problem with, and changing one line in the song - something Wilson does have a problem with.While the original tune says "girls run around with no clothes on to borrow a pound for a condom", the girls changed it to "girls run around with no clothes on to borrow a pound for a phone call."
Wilson told the Daily Star, "I don't give a shit if they don't change the words. But they did change the words, I'm gonna cover a Girls Aloud song and change all their words but make them really filthy. They said 'Borrow a pound for a phone call'. What? It's illegal, Girls Aloud. We're after you."
Recently, Lily Allen covered the song also, although she asked the band's permission and didn't change the lyrics.
Apparently the mental imagery of condoms are too explicit for your average Girls Aloud fan, despite an image built on sex.
