and another Sedaka song .. the Queen of 1964 Anyone who's played on a record date will remember stage door Jenny, Well I saw her last night and man she looked like she wasn't gettin' any Oh - Rock 'n' roll kind of took its toll when she shed her inhibitions, Too many scenes in limousines and dressing room intermissions. |

Boomtown Rats : "Mary of the 4th Form"
A big hit for Geldof and co in 1977. Sample lyrics Sittin' in the front row Mary of the fourth form Turnin' all the boys on She's turnin' all their heads around Hitchin' up her short skirt Stretchin' out her long legs Pullin' up her stockings She's combing out her black hair Starin' at the teacher Openin' her lips wide Shiftin' in her seat, yeah She slowly moves her hips aside |

You never seem to hear songs by Roy Rogers or Gene Autry now
There was a young cowboy , he lives on the range His horse and his cattle are his only companions He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyons Waiting for summer his pastures to change And as the moon rises he sits by his fire Thinking about women and glssses of beer |

I doubt Bridget the Midget would get to number two in the charts these days. At the time my brother was in sixth form which included a midget named Bridgette.

1978 kenny, I was 12
I loved my music even from a very young age, when I got a couple of quid from Dad for cleaning his car, tidying up the garden etc I would be straight down to the record department of WH Smiths in Streatham to buy a few 45rpm singles. Blondie, Fleetwood Mac, Boomtown Rats etc. |

Olivers Army Holiday in Cambodia All use words the Woke world (and Betfair) believe will kill us if we hear / read them, no matter they are used entirely within context. They're just a collection of sound waves or pixels on a screen FFS! Context is everything. We really are 'king dumb! Give the world over to the cockroaches |

If you were going to be really consistent you would have to ban "The Merchant of Venice" and "Oliver Twist" both of which make Jezza look pro-Jewish.

Certain songs ,particularly those using 4 letter words, never got played on mainstream radio.Some dealing rather explicitly with sex are now acceptable but wouldn't have been 40 or 50 years ago. I was thinking more of ones that were hits,were played regularly and at the time nobody batted an eyelid. The ones I mentioned in the OP,except perhaps for Gary Glitter where the reason is a bit different,and a few others that have been mentioned such as Fairytale of New York and Brown Sugar. The latter was put forward by Hepworth in the article I referred to as was "China Girl". I'm not really a Bowie fan and though I know the tune I've never listened to the lyrics.

Most songs by The Anti-Nowhere League would I imagine be off limits these days.
"So What" a particular example. It's on YouTube for anyone mildly curious. And naturally there are lyrics websites for anyone who might not quite hear the full poetry. Perhaps best enjoyed when the Vicar isn't sitting in the same room. |
