I laughed about Tipper Gore’s prissy ways back then too, with the majority of people, but it turns out she was prescient.
The lyrics of most music in 1985 are extremely tame compared to the vulgar Rap verses being screamed, mumbled and sputtered out today.
Maybe the pendulum will swing the other way in the next generation, to where it’s considered ‘over the top’ to use profanity in every situation and about every kind of topic. I know, “Dream On!”, you say.”Dream until your dreams come true.”
“it turns out she was prescient”
Fine line between that an thought police.
Tipper was a tool and a moron. Frank Zappa and Dee Snyder handed them their was. John Denver destroyed the morons.
