The name B-52's comes from a particular beehive hairdo resembling the nose cone of the aircraft, which Kate Pierson (red-head) and Cindy Wilson (blonde hair) wore in performances during the band's first decade. Also the songs that came out in the past were more discreet with references to sex. It was inferred from the lyrics and most of the time it wasn't said outright.
We had a barn we used to party in. It was full of hay and we made a table to hold our bottles and boom box.. that was the 80s .. if you weren't in the 80s you missed out on a great era..
that was the thing to get around the broadcast sensors. and actually made song better by subtle hits, innuendo, double meanings. just made it that more fun then just out right saying it and or showing it.
Yes go back to the song of the 30s the blues songs there was a lot of subtle innuendo that if you go back and listen those early blues songs just do some exploring you’ll find out and you’ll figure it out
It was because it was so obvious back then what they were talking about without going into detail that they considered it ok. Now and days you hear about the ways they have sex in detail or various other explicit contents. Also typically sex is a natural thing adults do. Its how we procreate as humans. Doing drugs and a life of crime isnt something most people do. We also didnt have people like twirking and stuff in the 60s-80s too much. Sure they had some expilicit or negatively tuned stuff back then but it was usually frowned upon more often too I feel. I wasnt around back then myself but my parents were and both my grandparents are over the age of 90 now so..... they would know more than myself.
I dare ya to react to Rock Lobster, official video. Sex was always a part of music, particularly rock. Ever hear the song sex and drugs and rock and roll? 😅 The difference between then and now is that a lot of folks hid this stuff in metaphors and other figurative language. Imagine being 11 and singing "we shove the poles in the holes" in front of your parents. 🤣 #clueless.
You know it is., They, back then hid it better. They had to. friggin music people did not like rockers at all. WHY, because they would not conform. THEY DID IT THEY WAY THEY WANTED TO. That is why most never won Awards. Keep digging, there are lots of nasty songs. Or songs about sex.

It was subtle back then and now your generations music is in your face that’s the difference between then and now

Subtlety....Nuance....erudite...
These words and concepts need to make a comeback.
The B-52s were intelligent, quirky, and just outright FUN.
The B-52 is a jet powered bomber introduced in the 1950s.
I B-67.
They were playing around in the studio and did this song in one take!

Her last line "Tin Roof Rusted" says it all...means she's pregnant...lol.
This might be talking about sex, but is clever and not vulgar.
Wearin' next to nothin' coz it's hot as an oven! LOL love it, great beat 🌼😎💖🍷
Music has always been dirty, the difference is how subtle it is. Don't get me wrong, I love both subtle and not subtle.
Love from hawaii 🤙🏽

All I can say is "Tin Roof... Rusted!"
