Description: In the realm of the censored
elvischomsky - November 7, 2008 09:00 AM (GMT)
All these records have been the subject of bans or censorship in some way.
They're all just too awful for me to spell out in full - any guesses what they are?

All correct - well done, but you were pipped to the post on three of them, I'm afraid.
PS LTLYB was not played by many radio stations on account of Donna making sex noises.

The first answer is correct.
Your second "answer" appears to be a question - you must commit on Friday quizzes; it's the law.

Correct for Mr Romeo.
I know you know the title of the number by Sir Cliff, but I'll need you to spell it out before I can give you the point.

I strongly believe the answer is Lola by The Kinks.
elvischomsky - November 7, 2008 11:01 AM (GMT)
Correct. Well done.
Bonus point for anyone who can name the hit single by The Kinks that was NOT banned, even though RD was clearly singing the word "fucking".

I shall give you the point, DP.
It is a correct answer, but I was thinking of Rumble.

Excellent.
"Cause the air pollution is fucking up my eyes..."
Another bonus point for anyone who can name the ABBA hit single that was also NOT banned, even though Bjorn clearly sings the word "fucking".
duckpin236 - November 7, 2008 11:48 AM (GMT)
We should think of Rumble because it was the better song - thanks for your generosity & forebearance
duckpin236 - November 7, 2008 11:49 AM (GMT)
I can't think why either of these two songs would be banned but the letters fit so I'll try
Labour of Love - The Kinks
