De Vuilste Vijftien
In 1985 richtte Tipper Gore (mevrouw Al Gore) samen met drie andere Washington wives het Parents Music Resource Center op, omdat ze geschokt was door de expliciete songtekst van het nummer 'Darling Nikki' van Prince. De ondubbelzinnige verwijzingen naar seks en geweld in de muziek van de jaren tachtig waren volgens het PMRC een 'angstaanjagende aanval op de familiewaarden'. Hun gelobby leidde onder andere tot waarschuwingslabels op platenhoezen.
De Vuile Vijftien, de lijst van meest aanstootgevende songs volgens Tipper Gore:
1. Prince: 'Darling Nikki' (seks)
I knew a girl named Nikki / I guess you could say she was a sex fiend / I met her in a hotel lobby / Masturbating with a magazine
PS: Prince heeft beeld en geluid (ook covers) van zijn songs laten verwijderen van sites als YouTube en eBay
2. Sheena Easton: 'Sugar Walls' (seks)
I can tell you want me, it's impossible to hide / Your body's on fire, admit it! Come inside / Come inside my sugar walls
3. Judas Priest: 'Eat Me Alive' (seks)
Squealing impassioned as / The rod of steel injects / Lunge to the maximum / Spread-eagled to the wall / You're well equipped to take it all
