Quick way to find if a song/album is explicit?

[horse123]

No itunes. Amazon doesn't do it. Sometimes I play music at a family friendly business and well you know where this is going.

If I had itunes it would be nice to look up albums/songs to see if there's an explicit label by them, but I'm not going to download it just for that, so what other methods do you know of?

Sparing 3-4 minutes to listen to it is my hillbilly answer.

Google

How are you playing this music? Streaming from internet radio or playing your personal collection?

If you are streaming you can use Pandora and in the channel settings you can toggle to not allow explicit content.

Googling the album isn't completely reliable as there are normally explicit and clean versions of the same album sold.

Apparently most/all places allow at least one big one in a song without marking it explicit... Guess I'll only do songs I know then.

Streaming business music doesn't cost that much. Cloudcovermusic.
SiriusXM also has business only channels with zero mention of SiriusXM for like $35 a month.

Listen to it first on youtube? There is a great deal of videos there.

There are still curse words in country music, but you will not find F___ in a country song.

You will find A__, S___, H___, D___ in modern (last 15 years) country music.

that's why he should listen to real country music

To the OP, even songs classified as 'non-explicit' may still have content in them that you may consider explicit/inappropriate to families. Unfortunately, the only way to really tell is the read the lyrics or listen to the song.

Play contemporary Christian, or Christian Rock/Pop. No worries then. Of course you'll then offend the atheists. You can't please them all. Easy listening or jazz should also be safe.

Christian rock? That's enough to upset any music fan.

Just limit your musical excesses to Oh! Susanna and you and everyone else will be safe from eternal perdition.
