"Clean" Albums

[babel]

So I'm sitting here listening to the 2pac I ripped off my roommate's computer and promptly discover that she took it upon herself to aquire the "clean version" of the album. Its seriously sounds like all the files are currupted because so much of each song gets scratched out.

So the point of this post is threefold:
1. To bitch about who the hell buys a clean version of 2pac?
2. To search for other stories of "clean album" ridiculousness/ brainstorm what songs/albums would be most ruined by "cleaning".
3. I am fucking board at work.

They had Icecube on Radio 1 the other day sometime in the afternoon plugging some new junk.

They decided to play Straight Outta Compton to suck up to him and noone had obviously bothered to listen to it beforehand so even though it was meant to be the edited version about 3 'niggers' went out before they pulled it off. They then came back 30 minutes later with a hilarious fully edited version that had about 2 complete lines in it

I always thought it was funny how rap CDs get parental advisory, but stuff like zappa no one seems to notice..

Good women, they sure has it tough

Good men, well there just ain't enough

Good girls are lookin' all the time

Good men is something that they can't find

They try to be lovin' as they can be

'Cause if they find one and let him go

Chances are they might not never find no mo'

A good woman needs to ease her mind

All y'gotta do is grease it down

Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy

Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy

Keep it greasey so it'll go down easy

Tipper and her PMRC were well aware of Zappa

[lemon boy]

ummmm that's because zappa is actual music and stuff

[mmcpheet]

I like that they put a parental advisory on one of his instrumental albums, because of a song title.

"Clean", is kinda like soft core porn...what's the point?

[BLOOD SWEAT STEEL]

I bought a "clean" Too $hort cd once.

It was blank.

I hate when I steal music, only to find out that I stole a clean version of a song. Especially when they do cute things to censor the lyrics, like run the lyrics track for that word, backwards.

Here's a good example of the opposite.

The song 'waterfall's' by Ludacris made it onto mtv and radio.

I think more people are familiar with that than the dirty version, which I had on my ipod in my car. The passengers were quite surprised with the lyrics; the repititive female chorus that alternates between "make love to me" and "fuck me" instead of "make love to me" and "touch me". We all wondered what it would be like if you were the female singer that got that part. Would you put it on your resume?
