Song Parody Recordings:
This is NOT AN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL SONG! I have never... well, I haven't, err... I didn't... ok. I can't lie. I did most of these. Even the lemon square incident where I added 2 cups of baking soda instead of 2 table spoons. It isn't too bad. You get used to it after a while.

Songs That Are Banned:
"Closer," Nine Inch Nails
Most radio stations don't play this song due to its explicit sexual content and supposed blasphemy in the lyric "you get me closer to God." The music video for Closer was banned by MTV for disturbing images (such as a monkey on a crucifix) and nudity. Nine Inch Nails later made a censored version of the video that replaces the offensive scenes with placards that say "SCENE MISSING".

"New Model, No. 15," Metallica
Some copies of the album have a warning sticker that reads "The only track you probably won't want to play is "Damage, Inc" due to multiple use of the infamous "F" word. Otherwise, there aren't any "s***s", "f***s", "p***es", "c***s", "motherf***ers", or "c***suckers" anywhere on this record." Absolutely classic.
