Banned music videos
in Music ·
This was actually the first video ever banned on MTV because of its sexual undertones..
I honestly don't get why they did it. It’s a total classic, beautifully directed with cinematic lighting that's been copied endlessly over the years—most recently by Beyoncé for her terrible track "Haunted" back in 2013.
Plus, this was one of the first times we saw a female singer embrace being sexy the right way. Even today, she remains artistically beautiful and alluring without being vulgar, unlike the stuff we see now from singers like Beyoncé, Rihanna, or Miley constantly flashing everything.
THIS IS ART and eroticism, not the cheap vulgarity you get from those three pop singers.
