Queen’s top 20 success Fat Bottomed Girls has been dropped from the band’s greatest hits compilation.
The highly suggestive 1978 song – written by guitarist Brian May – was in praise of “dirty ladies” with fuller figures.
It has been used on earlier compilations.
Universal Music has released on Yoto – a platform for children – a new set of Queen songs for a younger audience.
May’s lyrics describe an infatuation with “Fat bottomed girls” who “make the rockin’ world go round”.
Lines include:
“I was just a skinny lad, Never knew no good from bad,
“But I knew life before I left my nursery, left alone with big fat Fanny, she was such a naughty nanny, big woman, you made a bad boy out of me”.
Yoto said:
“Queen are one of those bands that bring generations together… and now their greatest hits are available for kids to enjoy on Yoto.
“It’s the ideal introduction to the music of Queen for young music lovers and the perfect soundtrack to kitchen dance parties, road-trip singalongs, bedtime air guitar sessions… and much much more.”
However, there is a warning:
“Please note that the lyrics in some of these songs contain adult themes, including occasional references to violence and drugs.
“These are the original and unedited recordings.
“Whilst no swear words are used parental discretion is advised when playing this content to or around younger children.”
