(Finished December 29th, 2021) Part 2 of The Best of Banned Songs

Hello,

These are some of the websites that I got these songs from. I don't know why most songs would ever be banned, especially some of these songs. I have posted explanations for why some of these songs were or may have been banned. If politicians can say all sorts of dumb/ controversial things why can't musicians do the same thing?
