Someone648 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 We know that due to the limits and censors on cable television, we will tragically never get a mashup of WAP/S&M in battles. I know, I'm devastated as well just thinking about what we're missing out on. I'm sure Todd Tilghman's take on the song would've been phenomenal. But let's reflect on some other songs that would be fantastic to hear on the show, but due to the lyrical content or whatever other reason, it won't make it to TV. (Although I know some of these may be featured in international versions of the show) I submit this classic: and this bop: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misirlou Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 A lot of RHCP songs come to mind, especially on their earlier years. Plus you´d have to get a really specific type of artist that could nail songs by them, since they could easily be busses. "Darling Nikki" by Prince also comes to mind. Hell, a lot of Prince songs.

TheVoiceFan2 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High (Arctic Monkeys) Xanny (Billie Eilish) Not exactly sure how the censoring of drug use works (I assume there is but idk how strict it is) but I doubt they'd let these two be sung lol I've got many more but these were the two that came to mind (and have been listening lately) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't as bad as people were making it out to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anybody354 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I once remember someone recommending that Desz sing “My Neck, My Back” by Khia. It would have been awkward asf, but it’s a sexually explicit song that I happened to hear a few years ago and was shocked by to say the least.

Dai Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Wicked Games by The Weeknd is the firstsong that came to mind. 8 hours ago, Gustavo527 said: Btw, this is irrelevant for the topic, but i think Moushumi's performance was over-hated when it aired. It wasn't as bad as people were making it out to be. I still don't see how it's bad at all. I get that people were disappointed with the song choice, but it was a solid performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QueenKalie Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 This was my favorite song in 2021 but it will not be covered on the voice for obvious reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Someone648 Posted January 14, 2022 Author Share Posted January 14, 2022 Yeah a lot of songs you can kind of clean up the lyrics a bit or omit certain verses (like You Oughta Know) and others they’ll let in a few non-minivan-friendly lyrics slip in (like New Americana) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't come up with anything for the thread but THIS is the answer. A great song for male modern RnB singers but way too edgy for The Voice.

Misirlou Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 "Yer Blues" by The Beatles Song would be fantastic for a good blues/rock guitar slinger on the show, someone in the veins of Michael Lee or Laith, but it´s straight up a dark, brooding song about feeling suicidal. No way they´re gonna let anyone sing "Yes I´m lonely, I wanna die", or " I feel so suicidal, even hate my rock and roll" on national television. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
