Yeah they rewrote it for some show on TV or whatever and the new version was their big hit

Fire Water Burn by Bloodhound Gang

Mother Hee-Haw is funnier and more in-line with the tone of the song.

Creep by Radiohead

"You're so very special," makes him sound like a sympathetic loner. "You're so fucking special," makes him sound like an unsympathetic neckbeard.

Yup. I still have the original CD where it's called that.

Yes, as a form of censorship because the original was not acceptable for general radio and tv play

P!nk's Perfect is better without the "fucking" in the chorus. Like the word feels like it's forced in there in the uncensored version. And I heard the uncensored version first, so it's not just that I wasn't expecting it.

The song is bad either way, but that domestic abuse breakdown in the uncensored version is just terrible.

Yeah, there's an "F You" version as well. It's my least favorite of the three. "Forget You" actually works pretty well and the extra syllable was slipped in really naturally. "F" just sounds dumb and somehow still kinda crass.

not gonna defend the language, and especially these days any self respecting lyricist should know better, but much of Xs songs are about pieces of shit doing shitty things, it sure fits better thematically than any censorship of it
