Iconic Music Videos!

Ok so this is a song from the 80s which was actually banned after it's first release on MTV in 1983 and by some radio stations. The lyrics was deemed to be too rude and the video had graphic sexual references. This banning made the song a number one hit in the top 40 for five consecutive weeks. So here it is. Relax-Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

Some people today would say that this is the average music video but it shocked the 80s making it the icon it was

  1. And yet this music video did not get the same treatment? Is that because society has changed or is it because it is not suggestive of homesexuality?
