How is that tame enough for kids?

Not that I'm complaining of course. But as this thread continues to point out, there doesn't seem to be any consistency to the filter.
I'm pretty sure it's just a phrase or detail Harmonix can use when describing the game, at this point.

"Yeah, we have a content filter to protect your kids!"

They will happily fail to specify how it's done (not important), or what is allowed through (very important), but to the general masses that doesn't matter.

Keep in mind that kids don't think that way. Thus, it's not really a bad song.

There's a lot of songs that kids don't understand the full meaning of. A good example is when I was a kid I loved Welcome to the Jungle (I was brought up in a house with rock loving parents). That song is about drugs. Did I realize it was about anything bad? No. I'd walk around the house singing it, totally oblivious. I've never touched illegal drugs in my life, so obviously this song didn't negatively impact me.

IMO the songs implying drugs, sex, etc are not bad for kids necessarily. It depends on the wording. If it is blatant (a good example is a good bit of Red Hot Chili Peppers songs - though I'll also argue kids wouldn't understand Under the Bridge is about drugs either), then no. It shouldn't be there.

Therefore, Do You Want To should not be considered inappropriate.
