Small references to violence don't get penalized as much as sex, drugs, alcohol and theft by the ESRB (or other American ratings boards). " His name was Rico. He wore a diamond. He was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there. And when she finished, he called her over. But Rico went a bit too far. Tony sailed across the bar. And then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two. There was blood and a single gunshot, but just who shot who" - Yes? There was a fight. And an oblique reference to "He went a bit too far". Plausible deniability, nothing outrageously explicit.

"Closer" is very explicit. "Bang Bang" and "Side to Side" also has some plausible deniability. But the point is that they all only hit upon one of the things the ESRB get mad about (or two if we're gonna be anal, but "Copacabana" only does so obliquely and in passing. "Closer" obsess about these things, especially the part about them not getting any older, which would raise the ESRB's alarms).
