    Red Hot Chili Peppers couldn't pass the filter

    I noticed this as soon as I made my first setlist, but never decided to ask until now. Why, exactly, didn't any of the Chili Pepper songs pass the filter?

    I have all twenty songs (well, 19 downloadable songs), yet can't play any of them. I don't analyze the lyrics whenever I listen to a song on my iPod, but at the very least, Breaking the Girl, Tell Me Baby, The Power of Equality, I Could Have Lied, and Under the Bridge should have passed the filter. Is there something I'm not seeing (or hearing)?

    I thought Breaking The Girl Did. But a lot of RHCP songs have a ton of sexual innuendoes. And Power of Equality and I Could Have Lied both drop F bombs. Under The Bridge is about doing drugs.

    I think it could be because it's from Blood Sugar SEX Magic.

    After looking up the lyrics, I guess the album really does have a lot more profanity and innuendos than I realized.

    Sir Psycho Sexy would be the biggest offender.

    Sir Psycho Sexy has about as much innuendo as Alanis Morissette' Ironic had to do with irony.

    So? The Killing Jar made it, and the album it's on is Peepshow. And New Fang passed the filter, and it mentions sex.

    I think they overreacted on some of the RHCP songs. I Could Have Lied, I understand after reading the lyrics - apart from the F-bombs (which are censored out even in regular RB), the song mentions cutting and bleeding (not clear whether it's literal) and striking people. Of course, why a song like Pink's So What makes it onto the disc with similar lyrical content is anyone's guess...

    Certainly not going to argue with that. I just didn't see at first why not one of the 19 downloadable Chili Pepper songs are available for play.
