"Ebeneezer Goode"
.
-- is a song by Scottish electronic music group the Shamen.
It became their biggest hit when released as a single on 24 August 1992 topping the UK Singles Chart for four weeks.
The group's original version featured on the vinyl edition of their fifth album, Boss Drum (1992).

It was considered one of the most controversial UK number-one hits of the 1990s due to its perceived oblique endorsement of recreational drug use - and initially banned
by the BBC. It has been claimed the single was eventually withdrawn after the band were hounded by the British tabloid press, - although the Shamen stated it was deleted while at number one due to its long chart run.

 
1977
Firefall's 1977 follow-up to "You Are The Woman" was a song called "Cinderella", which was climbing the Billboard chart and had reached #34 when it suddenly disappeared.


Women's groups started objecting to its controversial lyrics that told the story of a girl who wants the fairy tale ending, but when she gets pregnant, her boyfriend kicks her out to raise their son on her own.
 
BLACK BETTY.
-
A Cincinnati band called Ram Jam released a single called "Black Betty", which had civil rights groups, the N.A.A.C.P. and C.O.R.E., calling for a boycott of the song because it insulted black women.
It was in fact a re-release - Lead Belly recorded his version in 1935


Despite the controversy, the song still reached number 18 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart in September.
