Re: song lyrics

Hey xykon, there isn't a restriction on which bands are or are not allowed on the Scratch site, but any music with inappropriate language isn't allowed on the Scratch site at all - we want to keep the site friendly and open for all ages and backgrounds. ^^

if you want to use music that has bad words in it, try to find a cleaned-up [radio] version of the song, or you can use a music editing program (like Audacity) to clean up the music yourself if a cleaned-up version isn't found elsewhere.   smile

The comments won't matter if you post it on the forums, because YouTube links are automatically converted to YouTube Repeat, which takes away the comments.  smile

Yeah, as long as it's the clean version, everything should be fine.  smile
