Censorship organizations have somewhat of a trigger finger; they are quick to censor a song or fully ban it; whether it’s a single word in a lyric or the entire song completely. And radio stations have banned songs and full records for as long as they’ve been playing them. While it sure sucks for the music artists that just want to spread their music around but for some reason, it is deemed inappropriate; there are sometimes actual justifiable reasons for taking the song off the radar. I’m pretty sure you heard about the recent decision to ban the song ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside.’
That one, I gotta admit, has its merit. But we’ll get to that. In general, however, way too many songs (that you probably never even knew were banned) have been taken off the circuit for some pretty absurd reasons. These are songs that have been banned from radio or television airplay. Why? You’ll soon find out…
