To shake things up a little, here's some 'offensive' music that would never fly in today's sensitive world
Post Body

Unfortunately, SJWs have had an impact, and their most direct impact has been on our culture. What is worse than the sanitizing and anesthetizing of music? By giving in to these fools, we lose a part of ourselves. Here are a few songs that bring us back to a time without rampant sensitivity.

Young Girl, Gary Puckett. I have no doubt that this would be called "rapey" if it had been released today.

Walking Along, The Solitaires. When was the last time you heard the word "gay" in a song as its real meaning? We effectively lost that meaning when the homosexuals stole it for public relations reasons. From this source:

By 1955, the word gay now officially acquired the new added definition of meaning homosexual males. Gay men themselves seem to have been behind the driving thrust for this new definition as they felt (and most still do), that “homosexual” is much too clinical sounding and is often thought of as offensive among gay people due to sounding like a disorder. As such, it was common amongst themselves to refer to one another as “gay” decades before this was a commonly known definition (reportedly homosexual men were calling one another gay as early as the 1920s). At this time, homosexual women were referred to as lesbians, not gay. Although women could still be called gay if they were prostitutes as that meaning had not yet 100% disappeared.

Sixteen Candles, The Crests. And what's this? A love song with a 16 year old! How offensive! Yet in 1959, it sold over a million copies.

Standing on the Corner, The Four Lads. A comical classic that would be attacked relentlessly if released today.

Just to Be With You, The Passions. "I'd be a slave till the day I die" TRIGGERED today, top 20 hit in '59.

Enjoy guys. Music like this will never be heard on the radio again.


Here's a playlist of all the videos. Thanks /u/playlisterbot.
