Songs That Are Banned:
"A Day In The Life," The Beatles
Another Beatles song banned by the BBC, both for the "I'd Love To Turn You On" line, and the supposed drug use references
Submitted by: Ra'akone
"I Am The Walrus," The Beatles
At one point banned by the BBC, for suggestive lyrics, for the line "Boy you've been a naughty girl and let your knickers down" (for those unfamiliar with British English, replace "knickers" with "panties")
Submitted by: Ra'akone
"Peaches," The Stranglers
A song about girl-watching, banned because of its content (about a lecherous boy watching girls on a beach), and because of the word "clitoris" in context (although it was pronounced in a non-standard way, to almost rhyme with "guitarist") Also has mentions of the S word. A toned down version was made for UK radio airplay.
Submitted by: Ra'akone
"Open Your Box," Yoko Ono
Because of the suggestive lyrics and even suggestive title, it was banned by the BBC. Also, in the US, Capitol Records refused to release it, substituting it with another Yoko single, "Touch Me", on the B-Side of Lennon's "Power to the People"
