Vassili did. How odd. I think it's bizzare (in a good way) how a thread can just reappear and continue like that. I'd been reading it as if it had flowed non stop, yet it has a gap of weeks...

A thought though, the songs we're talking about - even if they were fully edited would often be of dubious subject matter for a 'young un' wouldn't they?
I've written a song which includes 1 swear word in 'context' i.e. using the vernacular of the (general) type of person the song is about.
the song itself is actually a dig at a certain type of lifestyle (discression here just in case).
meaning: a positive song with a swear word can be less detrimental than a negative song with no swear words.
i think if you want to protect children, the message, context and subtext all need to be taken into account as well.

eg: if blink 182 sang "i, wanna 'make love' to a dog in the 'bottom'"
it is only slightly less offensive than the real lyrics...

Wow..I haven't heard that one, or I missed those lyrics. Hope he did too. I agree with you there about the lyrics. At least now that I have a burner, I can make him a cd to listen to and screen everything that goes on it.

good idea! i think it's fantastic the interest and concern you're showing him and his interests. instead of blanket banning whatever you disagree with (therefore encouraging disent) you are teaching and nurturing him while being protective.
it must be so hard though, finding appropriate music that isn't 'kids' music. there is so much useless and or negative drivel out there, all too often wrapped in good music...
