Weekend Playlist: Banned

Weekend Playlist: Banned

Here's the weekend playlist created by Lyricslinger with help from guest curator Wee Bear looking at X/twitter selections (22/10/2026) with Songs that reference banning or banishment or songs that been banned.
This was inspired by the release of Frankie goes to Hollywood's Relax on Saturday which go on to be banned and become a UK #1 in 1983.
