Although I don't have either of those CDs, I do have the "Super Clean" version on a TM Studios disc. The "Super Clean" completely blanks out "shit" in the word "bullshit." The "Pop Mix" (not on either of the CDs you linked to) has the "sh" still audible, so it sounds like, "sometimes there's bullsh that don't work now." I would assume the regular clean version simply doesn't take out as much of the word as the "Super Clean."]]> Fri, 06 Jul 2018 09:31:56 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6617&PID=49553&title=onerepublic-good-life#49553 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6617&PID=49544&title=onerepublic-good-life#49544 Author: PopArchivist

The clean version is available on its own CD single outside the US in two versions, one with B.O.B. and the second track the Clean Version and the Super Clean Version on another CD.

If anyone can shed light for me on what the difference is, much appreciated. Both appear to run at the single time of 4:12.]]> Thu, 05 Jul 2018 20:53:56 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6617&PID=49544&title=onerepublic-good-life#49544 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6617&PID=49478&title=onerepublic-good-life#49478 Author: EdisonLite

It is a much hotter mix overall, with louder drums and more compression. This mix mutes only the "shit" in B.S., and it also shortens the drum intro of the song.

There's a "Pop Mix" on the TM Century Discs that's a much hotter mix overall, with louder drums and more compression (must be basically the same as the version you describe, Aaron, but it edits out the entire word "bulls**t" at both points, 1:35 and 3:46 (which could have been a TM edit, as they often do.) There's a promo CD single called "Pop Mix", which may or may not edit out the full "B.S." word twice. What does it say at the 3:46 point, Aaron? What's interesting is that on the new pop mix, lead singer Ryan Tedder is singing much higher melodies on the outro lines "Sometimes there's airplanes you can't jump out. Sometimes there's bulls**t that don't work now. We've got our stories but tell me...." - which isn't anywhere on the original recording, meaning that Ryan probably went back to the studio to sing the higher melodies for the single, but it would seem that you don't fully get the higher melody of the second "B.S." line anyhwere, if the promo CD single edits out the 2nd syllable and TM edits out both syllables at the 3:46 point.

Aaron (or if anyone else has it), would it be possible to send me a WAV of your pop mix (assuming it's from the promo CD single and not from Hit Discs)?

BTW, I just ordered UK CD singles with radio edits/mixes of "Suddently I See" by KT Tunstall and "Bulletproof" by La Roux, so I'm hoping they're the dj promo mixes I'm looking for, and can share when I get them, if anyone wants...

Hmm... There's a stand-alone single on Qobuz called "Remix," but it lists the running time as 3:49, and now I see on the cover art that it says "Remix featuring B.o.B."

There was definitely a Dallas version, but I'm not aware if any of the
local versions were made available for sale. ]]> Sat, 31 May 2014 07:54:40 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6617&PID=41603&title=onerepublic-good-life#41603 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6617&PID=41601&title=onerepublic-good-life#41601 Author: Bill Cahill

Do we know how many custom city versions were sent out to radio? I'm aware of the DC version, but I'm not sure how many others were made or if they were made available for sale. ]]> Sat, 31 May 2014 04:05:09 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6617&PID=41601&title=onerepublic-good-life#41601 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6617&PID=41600&title=onerepublic-good-life#41600 Author: aaronk
