Censors of that period seem to have been particularly interested in feet. The video is probably safe for work (depending on where you work).

It wasn't Al Gore who championed censorship in music (the PMRC, as it was called), it was his wife, Tipper, and a few other congresscritters' wives and such.
And like everyone else, I found the music very, very disturbing. Anyone know what it is?
MORE FEET!
We are the ones who aren't so insipid, timid, superstitious or immature. At least, some of we are.
Looking at those clips of allegedly censored images, surely no one would try to claim that the world today would be a much better place IF ONLY they hadn't been censored. If they were considered too risque at the time, who are WE to look back and say the censors were wrong?
There are people now who think that TV should be full of ''f**k'' and other such words. But, frankly, would TV be any better just because today's censors give in to a bunch of whiny people who can't think past their own whims? What about OTHER people? The people who will be watching? You know, not everyone wants to hear cuss words in every show they watch. Some people actually like clean language. Oh, but they must have such small minds, right? To not want the artist (right) to be free to express themseves. (Hand over brow, fainting.)
Don't watch the cussy programs if you don't want to lulu.
I don't think I know anyone who thinks that TV should be FULL of such words, but I know plenty that think that some programs should reflect the way that parts of the world really are, including how people in those parts of the world actually talk. Why should anything be censored, as long as people that don't want to see the material are allowed the chance to refuse to see it, and as long as the production of the material does not cause anybody any harm? Who is anybody else to decide what people can produce, and what people can see?
However, it appears that most of the censorship in these clips came from the local movie theaters, not the government, so it's technically not censorship. I would imagine that nowadays you couldn't do that, either show the flick in its entirety or don't show it at all.
