• Ranking PMRC's 'Filthy 15': Madonna, Prince and More Get Dirty

    Tipper Gore and a group of other (socially) conservative and influential women gathered 30 years ago to organize the PMRC (or Parents Music Research Center) after listening to the travesty that was Prince's "Darling Nikki." That organization has become the face of the censorship movement in the United States, ruining good album artwork and antagonizing Eminem, Marilyn Manson, Frank Zappa and others for three decades now. When it formed, the group issued a list titled the "Filthy 15," listing tracks that it considered especially repulsive. Music Times is ranking those first 15 songs in terms of potential for wrecking lives.

  • Did Lindsey Vonn Dump Tiger Woods After Catching Him Cheating?

After his marriage to Elin Nordegren crashed and burned because of his string of infidelities, Woods claimed to have learned his lesson and tamed some of those demons before even contemplating entering into another relationship. He and Vonn have spent the last three years together but when things got tough and Woods' golf game wasn't looking so great he apparently resorted back to his old habits.

  • Mumford & Sons Top Billboard 200, 'Fifty Shades' Gets Mother's Day Boost

    Mumford & Sons remains a rock band to beat on the Billboard 200, gathering its second no. 1 record with Wilder Mind. Although the band's original alternative fan base has raised an eyebrow at the use of electric guitars on the new set, sales still came out to 249,000-trailing only Drake and Kendrick Lamar for biggest debut of 2015 thus far. Although nothing to frown at, it's still a relatively low sales figure for Mumford, which sold 600,000 copies of Babel when that album dropped during 2012.
