As kids, it was easy for us to decide whether a song was great or not: if we could shake our butts to it, it had to be good! Okay, maybe it’s still the same today… But at least we understand the lyrics better. And sometimes we’re ashamed of ourselves when we think back to the dirty songs we used to shake our asses to.
We have a few examples for you: 15 songs we loved as kids, but which are actually pretty raunchy!
