Peter Gabriel is demanding that his music be pulled from Rush Limbaugh’s radio show after learning that his 1986 hit “Sledgehammer” was played while the host hurled insults at Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke on Wednesday, reports Rolling Stone.
“Peter was appalled to learn that his music was linked to Rush Limbaugh’s extraordinary attack on Sandra Fluke,” reads a statement on Gabriel’s Facebook page. “It is obvious from anyone that knows Peter’s work that he would never approve such a use. He has asked his representatives to make sure his music is withdrawn and especially from these unfair aggressive and ignorant comments.”
Gabriel isn’t one that no longer wants to be associated with Limbaugh and his show. Several advertisers, including AOL, have pulled their advertisements from the program.
