PARENTAL ADVISORY: The Mass Hysteria of 80s Rock Music and History of the PMRC
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- In 1985, Tipper Gore, along with 3 other concerned mothers, formed the Parents Music Resource Center, or PMRC, for short. Their mission was to inform parents about the rising trend in popular music, and heavy metal was their primary target. This is the story of the dangers of authoritarianism to the arts and how a group of politicians' wives forever impacted the music industry.

#PMRC #HeavyMetal #TwistedSister #TipperGore #FrankZappa #DeeSnider
The twisted sister song wasn't violent, even by 1984 standards.
Very good documentary. Thank you! I'm afraid censorship is still alive and well in the music industry.....
Ahh MTV, early MTV introduced me to Twisted Sister.
I recently saw a video about the Dee Snider /Tipper and Al Gore hearing.
This video is alot more informative,i like it!
I've always been a fan of 80s metal, it's my favorite genre in all of music. The PMRC had too much time on their hands, so they decided to go after music. I detest people who blame video games, movies or music for how bad people can be. It's ridiculous!
OH! MY! GOSH! This is so relevant to what is going on today with the far right wing extremists and Christian nationalists clutching their pearls and trying to legislate morality. (as of 8/22)
Honestly I find the liberals more damaging, they are changing our language to be more “inclusive” and erase womanhood, pushing damaging ideology on kids, all conservatives want to do is make people have morals and I don’t find that to be damaging at all, I am a constitutionalist, and really this video just proves liberals have been doing this for years and for the most part Christians don’t really pull shit like this anymore, I don’t know where you have been but your ideology is way off and is why nothing changes.
@Quantum Leap It sounds like you are stuck in the rabbit hole. You can't stand when you perceive someone else forcing their beliefs on you, yet you have no problem with forcing your beliefs on others. The endless persecution complex from the right is nauseating. You claim to be a constitutionalist, but you don't seem to believe that all men (everybody is) are created equal.
@@SilentEcho9194sorry I didn’t see this months ago but really? Seriously you are pulling my leg, how many liberals in recent years gotten Books, movies including song lyrics changed because they didn’t like it and it was considered offensive or triggering, music today is so brain dead because artists don’t want to offended anyone, rock artists are getting “canceled” because a bunch of Gen-x idiots don’t understand that people were different over 30 years ago, so don’t sit and tell me conservatives are the problem, having morals and being offended over stupid shit is different, liberals don’t want morals they want to be able to do whatever they want without consequences big major difference.
@quantumleap1491 Wrong again. Tipper Gore and her pearl clutching friends are Boomers, who would've looked down their noses at the counter culture side of the Boomer generation. You know, the free love, sex, drugs and rock n roll types. If she were Generation X, She would have been under the age of 10 at the time. I am Generation X, born between 1965 and 1980,(aka the MTV generation). If you don't like what you are seeing or hearing, turn the channel. No one is forcing you to watch or listen to whatever it is you disapprove of.
Intersection documentary! Thank you for uploading this!
We can't be asking that other countries like the UK have the same laws based in History. What you deem simply "offensive" could well be a racist meltdown or worse. Good for the UK 👍🏽
First Karens
😂😂😂😂 Yup.
They were right in the fact that kids shouldn’t be listening to certain things, but them blaming it on the artists as if they were buying their own albums and giving them away to minors is just ridiculous.
@al.s.3277 I understand where they were coming from, but it backfired. What I don't understand is how so many radio stations initially decided to play, say, Sugar Walls, for example. If it weren't on the radio, it wouldn't have been such an issue. I also don't think that the PMRC really did the best research, because most of those songs didn't get any real airplay.
OG Karen!
I don't even understand how Def Leppard's Pyromania made the list. What was in that album?
They were concerned about the cover art.
Also, I'm surprised that Relax by Frankie Goes to Hollywood didn't make the list.
John Denver has testified in both Chambers of Congress. He was a strong voice for NASA funding in appropriations hearings as an aviation enthusiast and military aviation brat born in Roswell, NM on New Year's Eve 1943.
Well that video took a turm at the very end lol
I was curious if you'd be open to a discussion style video about the PMRC. I just recently did a video on this topic and had my mind changed overtime. Lmk if you're down.
Ok Boomer
I find this a bit hilarious especially since I didn't grow up in the 80s that they were fighting the war on Rock when a lot of these mothers probably listen to Elvis
Don't forget Jerry Lee Lewis and the Hollies. Listen to the lyrics to 'Carrie Anne', as I got older I started to understand the lyrics of the song.
Every so often the outrage merchants wip the pearl clutchers into a panic.
1984❤
I'm going to the SUPREME COURT 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
It's a shame John Lennon died about 5 years before those Senate hearings happened. I'm sure he would have given them an earful too.
Too bad that some of his songs were banded because of messed up people, like Charles Manson.
@@sagittarianfirerat7657 the only song by any of the Beatles that was associated with Charles Manson was Helter Skelter, and that was primarily written by McCartney. In the US, the only John Lennon solo song that was banned on the radio was Cold Turkey. Also in the US, Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, Ticket to Ride, A Day in the Life, and Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds have been banned from the airwaves. In England, the BBC banned a lot more of their songs because it's funded by tax money so their censorship is more strict. The Kinks have two different versions of Lola because the US version mentions Coca Cola in the lyrics, which wouldn't air on BBC because it's considered advertising. They changed the UK release of Lola to cherry cola to avoid censorship.
To the PMRC, if you want to band rock or label them as obscene, start with the music you listened to when you were young.
Condemnant quo non intellegunt.
That's Latin for "they condemn that which they do not understand."
How did KISS avoid the filthy 15?
The controversy surrounding them in the 70s had pretty much vanished by the dawn of the 80s. These mothers would go crazy seeing the music in the mainstream today. Like many have said already, most musical content of the 80s is incredibly tame by today's standards.
@@Kylor80sMetalFan the Lick it Up album had some fairly explicit material, atleast by 80s standards.
Tipper gore was just salty that no one ever tied her up and gave her a proper...session. I'm willing to bet my life and the life of everyone I care about that Al Gore never brought the heat. Also WaP, y'all lost eat a back of Richards.
Currently the Latin genre of reggaeton displaced rock, rock is now a mess, shit, I'm very happy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wonder how the pmrc would of dealt with blink-182 ? Lol 😂
Sorry I agree with ladies on a whole lot of it. Seeing cardi b and Meghan the stallion scissor each other at the grammys opened my eyes wide open
That was recently, music back in the 80s was tame compared to now, we have the freedom of expression, There is a difference between listening to music and watching a award show, actually there isn’t you have the choice to watch it, or listen to it, if you don’t want kids to watch it or listen to it you have the authority to do so, but no one has the right to stop them, we have freedom of speech for a reason, rather we like it or not, we don’t get to pick and choose who has rights who doesn’t it, the pmrc were nothing more than Karen’s, I got shit for years because I love Blink-182, so screw them, and if they cared so much about kids where are they now with media pushing gay shit on them? Wow no where to be found.
Don't like it? Don't fucking listen to it. Don't try to stop other people from enjoying what they appreciate just because you find it distasteful. What I do in the privacy of my own home is none of your fucking business. I'll listen to whatever kind of music I damn well fucking please. Shut the fuck up.
Ohhh boo whhhooo 😭
8:50 lol they should alright lmhdo
18:35 exactly, can't believe he said that lol
28:36 Bru..💀 you can not be serious about this☠️✝️🚫
-9:01 bec they got offended about them
0:25 is that David Bowie?
Such an unnecessary waste of time, all of this could have been avoided if these parents werent too lazy to read theblyrics before letting their kids listen, it's not the artist's responsibility to censor themselves, it's the parents responsibility to monitor the media their kids consume
unconstitutional
Elvis' dance wasn't anything special. Pee-wee Herman did it better.
