NIghtmareElm 2,606 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 There are a few songs on BTW that are censored. Government Hooker. Not sure of the bleeps are part of the production though. Bad Kids. Queen. There were rumors that the explicit version would come out a month after the album release. What exactly happened? It was Gaga's biggest hype for an album yet so a few curse words wouldn't of hurt the album's sales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagzus 15,772 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 GH's is for the effect for sure, but i remember reading somewhere that because of the message of self acceptance and the majority of pop fans around the time where early to mid teens the label censored the songs so the album was still marketable to younger people I believe. Plus it could be bought by parents and more people who don't like foul language. (I know that makes no sense since Scheiße isn't censored) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkchylde 14,857 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 i think the point was getting the message to as many people as possible and maybe making an explicit version would throw some people off. anyway, i think censored works just fine with the theme of the songs.

latina twilight 2,319 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Producers were really smart when they had to censor some big words tho, it actually added a lot to the songs, especially for GH and BK. A lot of censored versions just reverse the word, change to some other unfitting word or add an awkward silence. "YOU USED TO BE SO KIND, I NEVER KNEW YOU HAD SUCH A DIRRTY MIND".

Seeka 12,372 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 The bleeps in GH are for effect. For Bad Kids and Queen I'm unsure. Bad Kids is probably also for effect, and I totally don't even notice Queen's censoring. 2 minutes ago, Blahwhatever22 said: I hate censoring of curse words in song.

Monster has always been censored though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blahwhatever22 8,117 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Yeah I remember hearing someone say some songs were censored while other songs weren't it's weird. I remember bad romance being censored for me, I don't even remember seeing a censored sticker on it either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

River 114,129 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 GH is an anti-censoring statement.. so it's on purpose, like the gov. is censoring us and from us. BK, is to show how the adults are oppressing the teenagers and censoring them, "don't curse!" for example, so it's part of the song, this is why the 2 curses, s-hit (yeah ggd censoring us too..) and bitch, are at the beginning.. the bad kids are still scared to fully rebel so they still censoring themselves while declaring their "war" and describing themselves as bitches.. So sploosh your juice all over me you Riverboy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They released the uncensored version for download only. I remember buying mine at target and took it back the next day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why they did that though, I never returned mine there were only A few copies left on stock they probably were all censored anyway.
