Talked about this before but “Give me Everything” by Pitbull & Ne-Yo & Nayer used to be played a lot on the U.K. radio station Heart and all the Pitbull verses were edited out. Rap music clearly still too much for a lot of people in this country.
The song is terrible of course but still absurd to edit our his verses when he’s the main credited artist.

They do that in America to. It's racism plain and simple.

“You Oughta Know” Alanis already hits the word f*** pretty hard. They just censor the u sound, leaving the f and ck sound. Makes it more aggressive.

MTV is notorious for edits. I mean, in Butthole Surfers' Pepper, 'shot' and 'bullet' were bleeped while 'rapist' was kept. Tom Petty's You Don't Know How it Feels reversed 'joint'. BUT! Salt-N-Pepa's Shoop KEEPS the word 'retard'.

Manson's "The New Shit" comes to mind. They managed to pull the teeth out of an already dull song. Not quite the same thing, but way back when a singer whose name escapes me covered Bowie's "Oh! You Pretty Things" and changed the line "the Earth is a bitch" to "beast." If I remember from the censored version of "The Beautiful People", there was "Hate every other hater that's in your WAAAAYYYYY!!!"

There's no question what she sings, even if you were like 8, you'd know she said f***.

I would love to find the old radio edit of Adam Sandler's Piece of Shit Car. Every curse was replaced by a car horn honk.

For a fairly long period of time in the UK, Fairytale of New York censored 'arse' but not the f slur.
Also - and I hate to bring this song up at all, because it has not aged well but it is the perfect example of this - comedy rap group Goldie Lookin Chain had a song called 'Your Mother's Got a Penis.' In the audio of the song in the video the word 'penis' was censored... but then the little widget on the screen telling you what song it is at the start and end was uncensored.

I’ve never actually heard it, but apparently they made Weird Al censor Don’t Download This Song by bleeping out Limewire, Morpheus and Kazaa, so he used the most obnoxious noise he could find.

Rage Against the Machine's idea of a censored version of "Killing in the Name" was certainly funny:

Papa Roach- Scars Album track has a long scream of "go f*** yourself" Video version has it changed to "go fix yourself" Radio version takes it out altogether and awkwardly replaces it with a few instrumental lines. I also had no idea that the original version of The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus- Face Down had unclean vocals on it until I saw Todd In The Shadows' review. The version that got played on the radio in my area had them completely removed. the oother week I heard the radio version of Killswitch Engage's "The End of Heartache" that removes all the screaming and it sounded utterly ridiculous (especially considering its not even an overly screaming song to begin with)
