yeah, the uncensored version is a bit much...
Frankie Goes to Hollywood enjoyed in the USA a couple of tunes that were mainstream enough to warrent videos and airplay. that song, and "Two Tribes" really seemed to hit chords. The video for "Two Tribes" was intense, with a Reagan and Gorbechov in a center ring duking it out, biting ears, etc, with the lead singer singing the narration.
In the censored version of "Relax", it was just them singing on stage.
I've sang this song so many times, it no longer was fun. A funny, true story was my ex-partner Dave had a kid rental system he put together with 600 songs... and that song was one of them. I finally saw his songbook and went to him going, "Dave!!!!! do you have any idea what that song is ABOUT?"
He removed it the next day!
