Censorship In Music : Should acts like Eminem and Marilyn Manson be Censored? Reviews

Why is it that things such as half a cow preserved in thamaldohide be classified as "art" but when something has naughty language people are offended and decide it should be banned? Censorship helps no one. It numbs the brain of thousands of people everyday. Nothing and no one is 100% happy and good, so why should television and music be ...

I do not know if Dooyoo want us to comment on whether Eminem and Marylin Manson need to be censured more than they are already. To some extent they are, because their songs and show are not broadcast at the time of the day when kids can watch them. Having said this, I do not know Marylin Manson very much, he looks a pretty ...

Should acts like Eminem and Marilyn Manson be Censored? This depends - censored HOW for one start - to be completely not allowed to swear would be ridiculous and to not be allowed sing about sex and drugs would kill rock 'n' roll wouldn't it ? :o) For starters if swearing in songs was censored it would destroy many many ...

Should Acts Like Eminem Be Censored? Acts like Eminem should be censored because if a young child turns on the TV an Eminem is saying it like he does, the child will automatically think that he is allowed to repeat the words said. Lots of kids listen to Eminems music but I don't think it should be allowed. I think when Eminem Records ...

Acts like eminem and marilyn manson are not only bloody fantastic but they are making a point. They are artistic and only saying what narrow minded people don't see or what cowardly people won't say. I think lots of people are intimidated by them so they instantly don't like them because those people have to feel like they are ...

There has been a lot of talk in recent years about the danger and necessity of violence in the lyrics of popular songs. The two basic camps are those who believe Eminem, Marilyn Manson, Cradle of Filth and Slayer should change their focus and sing about love and submarines and things; and those that think these ...

It depends on what they are going to do... i mean, Eminem can do non swearing gigs, but Marylin Manson shud ATLEAST have 15 on it... save little kids/young teenagers getting in. otherwise, its really up to the parents as to what they let theyre children see... Many acts have no swearing, and many bands themselves have no swearing. for example, ...

I find myself in a society where nothing is, as it seems, so many new and improved ways of expression have appeared, giving people an escape from their lives. That?s all that it is, an escape. I can only speak for myself when I say that life isn?t perfect, nothing turns out for the best all the time, that?s not how this life works. It?s not easy. ...

I am soon to join a band and I supose if my record was branded only for 15 yr olds or 18 yr olds my records would sell less. So I guess when I say that censorship is a good thing that you must think I'm mad. Well look out side and what do you see, children as young as 4 running around out side on their own smoking joints and standing on used ...

This is a few degrees off topic, but in a good cause so please bear with me. As you are probably aware, there is currently a Bill going through parliment regarding the loosening up of pub licensing paving the way to 24 hour drinknig and the like. What you probably don't know is that tucked away inside that bill is some legislation ...

Why follow the pack? What a question that is!! People like Eminem, Robbie Williams and Marilyn Manson and god knows whoelse, they just THINK its the 'in-thing' nowadays to have disgusting bits in their music videos. Why on earth would people want to do these things?? Its not clever, its not smart...... its just down right stupid to do ...

This morning, I was watching CD:UK, eating my cornflakes, when they played a live performance by Pink of her number one track 'Like A Pill'. Pink's already perhaps veered a little bit on the side of controversy with a previous song 'Get The Party Started', complete with its thinly veiled drug reference to Ecstasy (the line ...

This is one topic of debate that will never go away or be resolved. It seems a silly bother to pass any form of legislation to ban anything anymore. The more you make something unattainable the more it is desired. Setting that idea aside, people are becoming parents younger these days so many children will be exposed to this sort of ...

Eminem sells records. You cant get away from the fact that he does his job well. The way he and others alike do the job though is subject to heavy debate and a great deal of media attention. But this is exactly what sells the records though. The more press attention he gets, the more contraversial his music is, the more he seems to sell. But ...

Perhaps people are far too eager to jump on the ‘civil liberties’ bandwagon – we need a more thoughtful interrogation of the matter in hand. Music, like other art forms, has the power to move, provoke, incite emotions and feelings, to rouse the mind and warm the soul. Censorship exists in other mediums; film, the press and ...

What an interesting topic this 1 is! My own view on the matter is somewhat confused. For firstly i am a teenager and therefore i can understand why my fellow peers would not want this music banned. Me too says that eminem is argueably the best rapper around. I have his music right here on my computer and right now i am listening to the ...

Hey my names alex im the brother of kacey read her opinion and then read my again. people should listen to the music they want to no matter what the lyrics maybe.I believe in free will let your children buy these albums it wont affect them. They might swear so what? we all swear, theres nothing wrong with that. Only kids in america ...

Since when has protecting the ignorant seen as a better solution that educating the ignorant? - Advantages: People in power can force their opinions on others, People in power can never be wrong, they control all rules of law and morals, yay, If you aren't Christian oh well, we still feel you cannot listen to the devil music cause the music will somehow convert you with its magical demonic powers you dont believe in - Disadvantages: read the advantages, what? you say i can't paint a person crying cause that will cause the whole world to fall into grief?, If a few people dont like jazz music i guess that will ruin it for the rest of us. All of Me talks about the removal of limbs and organs, how horrible

My very first question to any one who says that music should be censored is 'What is that going to acheive?' People are free to publish there views in numerous ways, internet, books, videos, TV and music. Media in general like exploits the extreme nature of humanity. Think about it do you ever see or read about nice, clean ...

Okay, first up I don't mind Eminem because at least he looks okay. I HATE Marilyn Manson. How on earth can people think the content of their songs are okay?? I just don't understand how these artists can sleep at night when there's the possibility that they have seriously influenced a child. There are some very weak ...
