Whoa there. I didn't say I liked the 'mashup'. I can't stand Miley Cyrus. At all. And if you're so squeamish about profanity in music, I don't think you can safely say you like anything truly 'edgy'.
Furthermore, I'm hardly interested in music where the main demographic is for kids under 13.
I don't see it on Youtube but the Mike Jones vs Britney Spears "Tippin Toxic" mashup is gold.
Kate Bush vs. Placebo + Insect Sex.
I actually don't really hear Kate Bush's version in this ... like at all. BUT~~~~~ The insect sex makes up for it completely.
edit: Oh there she is right in the ending.
I'm interested in music intended for the very young to the very old and everyone in between.Originally Posted by Momiji
And when exactly did artists start cursing in their songs, and why and how did it become so commonplace today?
Is that your final answer?
I have a feeling they started as soon as the words were invented. I don't find any of it to be offensive though. They're just words.
Well this wasn't commonplace back in the mid 20th century; I started hearing it infrequently in the 1990s, but how did it get so common now?
Is that your final answer?
People started to grow up and get over it?
The RIAA seriously needs to start being tougher on musical content like the MPAA is on movies and the ESRB is on video games.
To me, all profane music should spawn a new music genre called Hardcore Extreme Adult Dauntless music, where nothing is off limits. If you want to listen to profane music, go to the H.E.A.D. music section. And require ID to buy HEAD music. They do that in Australia; you must be 15 or older to obtain an album with explicit lyrics.

If you're not trolling, I feel sorry for you. If you are, 8/10.
What exactly are you talking about?

Or, you know, you could just get over it and stop acting so childish when profanity is involved. You remind me of my little brother, whose eyes used to get all wide in shock whenever he heard a bad word on TV.
Now he just laughs.
He's 11.
No, I will not. To me, profanity has nothing to do with maturity. Swearing does not make you mature; it makes you nasty.
Is that your final answer?
You're right. It has absolutely nothing to do with maturity. However, they're just words.
Maybe you should stick strictly to music for kids.
Why did people get over profane lyrics from the 1950s to now?
And I like a lot of old 20th century music. Most (but not all) of today's music is just grime, raunch, and trash. How could people have gotten over that?!
Is that your final answer?
He's definitely trolling. I would say 7/10, if only because he seems to be the kind of guy who doesn't shout an interjection when he slams his knee on the bottom of a table.
They haven't. The only difference is that you're here, and that your ignorance is more accessible to the general populace.
