Rihanna S&M.....I understand that the song may not have suited radio, but the edited version was just horrendous and ruined the whole song. They even changed the title of it. :-/
The instrumental change for the radio edit just rinsed the song of all its original charm not to mention the dated drum loop that sounds like something from a 1994 pop band track. Such a waste!
I don't see why people like Rita Ora can't record alternate, clean versions of their songs for the radio. Do they think the bleeped-out swearing makes them sound cool?
I agree. That song was absolutely destroyed. I've deleted it from my iTunes and replaced it with iTunes' own radio edit, which is a million times better.
why was this censored? i don't remember any bad language in it?
i would also add 212 by azelia banks to the list as Radio 1 could only play like 1 and a half mins of it and i am not surprised really, the lyrics are disgusting, god knows why she could not record a clean version.
i always find it funny when radio 1 censors songs but the same songs are aired uncensored on commercial radio, example being S & M by Rihanna.
Lily Allen- Not Fair & **** You replacing the words with animal noises really you should just not have bothered.
I like that cause it was obvious they were being deliberately funny with the noises! Lily having the cheek to release those songs was always gonna cause a stir.
Untouchable wasn't censored it just got cut down from 6 and a half minutes to 4, and for some bizarre reason one of the lines was given a robotic echo!
Taio Cruz - Dirty Picture .... WTF did the radio just go mad ... for censoring "dirty" ??? :eek: (MTV/BAUER edit done the EXACT same thing to this ... before 9pm censored after 9pm "dirty")
and also another of his "hangover" ... I got a little s**tfaced last night ... they may as well have kept shitfaced in!
can we have a campaign to keep the swearing in??? ... might as well younger children (majority) of them swear now than what I use to! :eek:
^ Yeah, I remember Dirty Picture's edit lmao. Some stations just left it normal, but on some others it went "Take a, take a picture for me", and others it said " Take a d---ty picture for me".
One thing that always confused me was why they censored the word "satellites" out of Boom Boom Pow. Infact, that song had a weird radio edit too, lots of censoring, usually replaced with some sort of electronic sound.
I think radio stations are getting more lenient though. Last year Rolling in the Deep and Sweat by Snoop Dogg both had the word "shit" left intact on most radio stations I listened to.

They make it sound even worse! It sounds like D*cks in the air!
So when the sun sets baby on the avenue
I get that ***** sex feeling, yeah when i'm with you.
Shouldn't they be censoring the word "sex" rather than "drunk"
Some Radio Stations just censored the Party and Bullsh*t part
You have to laugh at what happens to Jay's verse. It sounds like someone just constantly pressing the mute button every few words.
Radio1's radio edit was.
I want to party and party and party and party and party and party.
Sounds so daft lol
Most music channels edited the second verse from:
Hungover I think I'm broken
You say the fix is a shot of Jack
I say man what are you smokin?
But allright, pour a glass, and we'll throw em back
to:
****** I think' I'm broken
You say the fix is a ********
I say man what are you *******
But allright, pour a glass, and we'll **** em back
Ridiculous!!

It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital ... FM!
:D:D
lol. I remember that. I also remember Judas had a strange radio edit. They muted a lot of the bridge for some reason.
Also Don't Phunk With Your Heart sometimes had "phunk" censored, because it sounds like "****".
