10 Songs From The '90s We Sang As Kids And Really Shouldn't Have

Songs from the '90s had a lot of subtle sexual lyrics, or maybe I was just super naive when I was a kid.

Let me know if you agree! 1.  "Genie in a Bottle" - Christina Aguilera Not only did I sound like a dying animal while singing this song, but I was also belting out lyrics that had strong sexual connotations. Lyrics like "you gotta rub me

Harry didn't attend the Boxing Day hunting expedition with his family, because his fiancee is a big animal rights activist. "The Boxing Day shoot was always going to be a tricky issue," a royal insider said. "Meghan is a keen animal rights

10 Songs From The '80s Your Parents Tried To Ban You From Listening To

According to my mom, 80s music was "too vulgar." She may not have been wrong, there are a lot of songs from the 80s that are still considered risque. My mom wasn't the only one who had that opinion, so many parents thought the same that an American committee was formed in 1985 to increase parental control over the access of children to music deemed "too violent, drug-related, or sexually explicit." Here are some songs that made the Parents Music Resource Center group's "Filthy Fifteen" list, and other songs my parents always scolded me for listening to. 1. "Darling Nikki"

Whatever Happened To Ethan Embry From "A Far Off Place?"

A Far Off Place is one of those movies that we all remember from our childhood, but never really realized how dark it was. The 1993 Disney movie featured a young Reese Witherspoon who ends up walking through the desert with another kid. Seems relatively harmless, right? JUST KIDDING. The two kids, Reese Witherspoon and Ethan Embry, are left STRANDED in the desert after literally everyone else they know is murdered. Nonnie, played by Witherspoon, and Harry, played by Embry, had sneaked away from their home in the African desert to meet up with Nonnie's friend, Xhabbo. They hear gunshots,

Remember Sloth From "The Goonies?" The Man Behind The Mask Lived A Very Tragic Life

The 80s adventure film The Goonies was one of my favorites while growing up. Steven Spielberg and Richard Donner's cult-classic about a group of outcasts in search for a treasure to save their neighborhood incorporated a lot of things that I did as a kid, like making my own toys and riding my bike around the neighborhood, but it also touched on things that I fantasized about as a kid, including teaming up with my friends and going on an adventure sans adults. The characters were also really lovable and memorable, especially the gentle chocolate and ice cream-loving giant named
