whore 11,447 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Why wasn’t an explicit version of Born This Way released? It wouldn’t have been her first explicit album, when she says “sh*t” on “Paparazzi,” “Beautiful Dirty Rich,” and “Paper Gangsta,” “b*tch” on “Bad Romance” and “Dance In The Dark,” and “f*ck” on “Monster” So why is it that these same words are censored on “Government Hooker,” “Bad Kids,” and “The Queen,” but not “Scheiße?” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creyk 16,844 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 She was a family friendly act back then, it would have hurt her reputation, and her sales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Gaga said she tried to get away with as much as she could and then compromised on the rest, because she didn't wanna have 4 different versions of Born This Way floating around since it already came in two different versions by design. Walmart for example only sells albums without the explicit lyrics tag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian 566 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I don't remember where I know that from, but I think explicit Government Hooker doesn't exist, the beeps were intentional Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisGuyTony 24,644 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Wasn't there a rumor that she didn't want the "Explicit Lyrics" sticker ruining her album artworks? Or am I confusing her with someone else? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEETHTEETH 1,148 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Censorship ruins art. But if you’re working against the system I would’ve done exactly what she chose to do. Get away with as much as you can and say what you want without “explicitly” saying it. Definietly prefer just to be blunt but some people can’t handle that I guess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i think this was about Madonna's Rebel Heart (she tried to fight it because the tag was pretty jarring on the White/Red Sweater album cover, but she lost) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Nook 37,719 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I always thought Goverment Hooker had those censored bleeps as a nod to government censorship and the FCC but I don’t know why others got a radio friendly edit Uh Red Wine...
