There were three Adele rejects though apparently.

Acts of Terrorism have taken away from these messages of fun with friends etc. Why play into the hands of terrorists by targeting innocent artists for not forseeing these events.

Take X Factor UK for example. The day after the Paris attack, two contestants were supposed to sing "License to Kill'" and "Bang Bang (He Shot Me Down)" but they changed the songs. It is called being sensitive.

That's completely different though. It's easy to change a song the night before when all you're doing is singing a cover on tv. In the case of songs like Die Young, Kamikaze, Grenade, One Million Bullets, they've had those songs in the pipeline as singles for ages. They can't just up and change their release schedule for a single when they've already planned and paid for promotion and marketing around these songs. In the case of Die Young, it's even sadder because that was Kesha's lead single, and the song was actually out BEFORE the Sandy Hook tragedy even happened. I wish people would stop focusing on a title and actually listen to the song before deciding to boycott it for "insensitivity".
