Megadeth These Boots (Unedited Original)

This is the 1985 Megadeth version of These Boots, on the album Killing Is My Business... And Business Is Good! — this version was produced more as a parody than as a cover. When the album started selling well, the writer of the song, Lee Hazlewood, began demanding that the song be omitted, due to it being a "perversion of the original". Dave Mustaine made the point that Hazlewood had been paid royalties for years before his complaint, but eventually omitted the song anyway. A censored version of the track can be found on the album's 'deluxe edition' released in 2002.

FUCK THE P.M.R.C.

I wonder why songs are censored. Kids see worse things on TV, on advertising, on videogames, on books, and so on.

Come on!

@bravesfan528 Fucking lame. Nancy Sinatra can go suck it.

[DropPodFullOfPonies]

The modified lyrics are truly inspired, and my personal favorite line change is "I just got me a brand new box of matches" to "I just got me a brand new box-spring mattress".

a little bit hectic.

@DCHammett It has to do with the original writer of the song. The person who originally wrote the song didn't consent to Dave Mustaine doing a cover, so they sued and won rights over the song. They bleep out any original parts

[JEKAZOL]

@DCHammett It's censored because the guy who wrote the original hates this version and doesn't allow it's continued uncensored release. This info is from Dave's bio.

Wait, so I'm not the only one who got the song censored on the disc???

You know, I love both Megadeth and Metallica, but why does it sound like Metallica's Whiplash sound so similar..
