The good stuff

  • Messages:

    All over the road...some weird relationship stuff, also some strong positive messages.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    One song alludes to getting away from an abusive relationship.
  • Sex:

    A lot of heavy breathing and flirty innuendo, but nothing explicit.
  • Language:

    Not an issue.
  • Consumerism:

    No obvious product placement.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
