Red Hot Chili Peppers couldn't pass the filter

[jeccaneko]

Profanity, sexual innuendo, drug use...

Even some of the "tame" singles are the same. Under the Bridge is literally all about Anthony Kiedis losing his girlfriend because he chose to shoot up on speed no matter how much she told him not to.

Well most of the songs come from an album named Blood Sugar Sex Magik. There's nothing family friendly about any of these words! Blood promotes violence and thus will turn kids into serial killers. Sugar causes cancer. Sex is un-Godly in every way and thus kids must not be exposed to or their mind will rot and their genitalia will do things that are impossible for genitalia to do..Magik is the devil's work and then all out kids will go to hell for seeing such a word. Just be thankful there arw wizards in this ga-OH WAIT

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.

Er, some RHCP songs did pass the filter:

Breaking the Girl
Under the Bridge
My Lovely Man
They're Red Hot

If you're wondering why nothing else did, you probably haven't listened to the lyrics very closely.

And yet, not knowing that background, you wouldn't find anything at all objectionable in the actual lyrics. Which is why "Under the Bridge" passes the filter, despite the subject material; the lyrics themselves are not at all explicit about the drug use. Hardly even implicit for that matter, unless you read way more into it than anyone under 10 would reasonably be able to.

Are you positive these songs are playable? 'Cause I can't find them in my song selection screen... o.O

I know for sure that "They're Red Hot" didn't make it in, and I'm pretty sure I didn't see any of the others in the music store.

I REALLY don't understand why Snow[Hey Oh] Didn't make it.

[RainbowMist]

I REALLY don't understand why Snow[Hey Oh] Didn't make it.

Yeah, that confuses me too, although I thought I heard once it was about cocaine, but even if that is the case (I don't think it is) it didn't stop them from adding "Summer of '69" given what that's supposedly about.

Suddenly I See has the word "hell" maybe ten times throughout the song, and So What is about Pink's boyfriend leaving her, so she's gonna "drink all her money" and "start a fight." Why Snow didn't pass is completely beyond me.

It's about drug use

"Come to decide that the things that I tried
Were in my life just to get high on"

Under the Bridge is about Kiedis shooting up heroin under a bridge in LA, and it's not that hard to decipher

"Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away"

Some of the others are pretty confusing as to why they didn't make it through.

I keep reading about how Under the Bridge passed the filter, and how Breaking the Girl passed, and how maybe two other songs passed. Now I have pictures to prove that either you guys are crazy, or there's something wrong with my file. I have the latest patch and every Chili Pepper song, yet nothing.

I took them with my phone, but they should be clear enough. Lego skips straight from Razorlight to Rise Against, while Rock Band 2 obviously shows the Chili Pepper tracks.
