The Filthy Fifteen

Back in the ’80’s, Tipper Gore’s panties got in a bunch and she along with some other bored housewives of Senators, City Councelors, decided to cause a ruckus about obscenity in music. They created a committee called the Parents Music Resource Center to try and hide explicit music and remove songs from airplay. They attacked any songs with any mention of sex, violence or explicit language. This is why almost all music will have the Parental Advisory “Tipper” sticker on the front.

The PMRC also released the “Filthy Fifteen”, a list of the 15 songs they found most objectionable:

#	Artist	Song title	Lyrical content
1	Prince	“Darling Nikki“	Sex/Masturbation
