To name a few plus a few related: I Am the Walrus - The Beatles (1967) The Beatles managed to get the BBC's knickers in a knot with this track, for mentioning, well... knickers. The lines "pornographic priestess" and "let your knickers down" were deemed inappropriate and the record banned. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/1501119/story.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=10483279 Paul McCarney & Wings - Hi Hi Hi - Banned, not due to drug references but to explicit sexual lyrics - 1972 The Beatles Back In The USSR 9. John Lennon - Working Class Hero - 1970 The Beatles - A day in the life - Banned in the '60's for drug references - 1967 http://www.paulsquiz.com/Trivia_Quiz_Resources/Music/List_of_songs_banned_by_the_BBC/ Jul 09 08, 5:23 PM
