i think censored songs are horrible in the way that they completely destroy the song but taking out alot of words...

but i do know that about 1% of people do like these and i don't have a problem w/ that

it's just the idea of censoring songs cause someone can't take a few words.....(what are they doing on newgrounds for ?)....
i just heard the censored version of 'let's get fucked up' .....horribly censored.....
he says " let's get ....... up"
"i ain't got .... in the morning, ....... the search and (blah blah [can't remember the rest ofthe words :3])

what's your view on this NG?

DAMN! I can't come up with something half-assed and witty

This is why I don't listen to commercial radio. Or maybe its because the music they play is shit. Oh dear, I can't remember now.

This is filler text.

Well lets see, sometimes parents listen to music with kids in the car, and they don't want their 4 year old to go around screaming DIE MOTHER DIE! So yeah i think it's a good thing.

Well... music is considered an art form... would you censor a photographer or a caricature guy

Censored songs are censored for a reason. I don't think you'd be comfortable having children listening to a song that drops the F-bomb every ten seconds.

Unless he was flashing his bit, I don't see what's wrong with it. I think they should let it fly, and if the song is basically "fuck fuck fuck fuck shit i fucked your mum" or anything the better idea is to *gasp* not put it on a radio channel kids listen to.

I watched Titanic when I was 4.

Anyway, I'm not against cencoring song lyrics as such, but it would be better if musicians could produce their own PG version of their songs so that we don't have the crap editting of radio stations to remove obscenities for us.

I listened to music with swear words in it when I was younger, I turned out fine, I think.

Censoring a song usually takes away it's main impact, I was listening to Roses in the Hospital on youtube to see the video, I was annoyed when the line "Roses in the Hospital" came up instead of " We don't want your fucking love", completely different meaning. I stopped watching after that.

It's so terrible when something gets censored and edited. It loses all meaning.

Censorship is disgusting whether it be in a game, book, or movie, but songs piss me off the most. What's so wrong about wanting to hear what the artist wanted everyone to hear?

Would you like your kids listening to songs like this?

Personally, I don't care, but I understand their reasoning.

I imagine there are many rap songs which can't even be played on the radio because they would just sound like this censored.

Ever heard "Real N***a Roll Call"? That song has so many obscenities in it, every other word has to be censored.

It's political correctness. Because some very small percentage of people will be offended and actually complain to someone about it, songs are censored.

Alternate lyrics and silencers, I can take...

But when the entire song is replaced with the offending lyric reversed, every 3 fucking seconds.. its more than distracting..

I agree, censored songs are a disgrace, if you dont like a song thats uncensored, then dont listen to it at all.

Thats why I like Green Day, they dont sell their songs at Wal Mart because Wal Mart wants them to censor them, so they just dont sell then there.
