“You Don’t Know How It Feels” by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were barred from using certain derogatory terms in their song “You Don’t Know How It Feels.” Radio stations, MTV, and VH1 all edited the recording to omit certain words. In the end, “You Don’t Know How It Feels” won Best Male Video at the MTV Video Music Awards. Petty described himself as “elated” when the song was banned. The only exception was David Letterman’s show, which aired it in its entirety. The number-one hit song was published in 1994 on the studio album “Wildflowers.” However, the song was banned during the Heartbreakers’ Lollapalooza performance in 2007. Tom Petty is no longer with us.
