Songs That Are Banned:
"Blown Away"
This was a case of self banning/censorship. Blown Away was Pam Tillis' current single at the time of the Oklahoma City bombing. After the Oklahoma City bombing Pam Tillis requested that radio stations stop playing the song as she was trying to be sensitive to people who might be offended by it. The song actually has nothing to do with being physically "blown away". It's all about the strong and overwhelming emotions people have when they're falling in love.
