avril lavigne


Question Posted Saturday April 28 2007, 11:56 pm

I just bought Avril's new CD. I realized it was edited. Some words were clearly noticeable, but one I just noticed now -- For example, in Everything Back But You, she says "Hey hey psycho babe" when I found out she REALLY says, in the unedited version, "Bitch, slut, psycho babe" Whats up with this?! I searched EVERYWHERE for a part on the CD saying this CD was a clean version! Honestly I hate it. When they just block out words, you can clearly tell. It bugs me. Its too late to return the CD, but is it supposed to be like this, and why? Even the little book inside, with the lyrics inside are edited!

1] It won't say that it's a clean version; it just won't say that it's a dirty version either. If it was unedited, it would have had the black & white Parental Advisory sticker on the front.

2] Did you buy it at Wal*Mart? Because everything they sell is edited. Next time, go to a music store or even Target.

You know it isn't the unedited version if it has that little black and white label on it that says "Parental Advisory Explicit Lyrics."

The edited version isn't going to say that it's edited. It depends on where you buy from. Walmart, for example, doesn't sell explicit lyrics CD's as a rule.

Generally when a cd is made as an edited version (clean) it says so next to the track but it seems they forgot to do that on this particular track which is kind of a rip off. I also have a major distaste for editing of lyrics especially since they are what the real track is about!

If an album contains bad language there is usually a sticker/warning label saying so on the front so those buying the cd are aware of this. If only one track contains bad language and the rest of the tracks don't I would guess the publishers would prefer to edit the language out instead of making the whole cd aimed to an older group of people. Personally if I had brought this CD I'd have taken it back saying there was no indication the track would be edited (including track listing on the back). Shame that you are unable to do this though. :(

new music now days is always like that. all the edits are for are young children that their parents dont want them to hear those words.their is nothing wrong with the cd, editing is just covering up bad words.
