Lorde’s song “Royals” was banned in San Francisco for quite a funny reason. In 2014, the song was banned due to an upcoming baseball game between the San Francisco Giants and the Kansas City Royals. The song was antagonizing for Giants fans, so the song was temporarily banned. After the game, it was no longer banned.
