For the entire MOP CD and single tracks and everything and there was never a problem before... so why one now???

well, i know that i've heard it on the radio w/ it edited as such. in fact, the handful of times i have heard it (mostly on the alt-rock station back in st. louis), it's always been edited.

Well, then it must be the censorship issue. I noticed Higher's the full version, too.(some radio stations played a cut down one) Why couldn't they have just had Walmart sell the censored version, and the rest of the stores sell the uncensored version? It works for other artists.....so why not Creed?

It would be kinda stupid to release 2 versions just for one word. I doubt it was any Christian thing. It's probably just to avoid the explicit lyrics sticker. It would be a shame to have that crappy, stupid sticker on their album. It just wouldn't be deserving of it.

Does anyone know why MOP is missing a few lines in the first verse? Was the original video or song always like that? That bothers me far more than sensoring one word.

I think there's a shorter version of it. I checked WinMX and saw two WTLF's: one at around 3:32 and the other over 4 minutes.
