Dua Lipa - Love Again

PopArchivist wrote: It seems unlikely that radio in the USA would have played the album version, which has a long 20 second intro and a 15 second outro (or that French radio would have left the g-d d-mn in). I have a 2:51 radio edit that I got that cuts out the extra verses and the :35 seconds of the album version stated before and edits "g-d d-mn" out each time.

I've heard 4 different versions of this song:
(1) album version with the long intro/outro and GD intact
(2) edit with long intro/outro and GD ducked
(3) edit that removes the long intro (starts with the White Town sample) and has ___damn in the chorus
(4) version where GD is replaced with alternate lyrics

I've heard both versions 2 & 3 on the radio, someone posted version 4 on Youtube, don't know if it's official or
not.
I haven't been able to locate a copy of version 3...it may have been a house/corporate edit (it was on 92 Moose in Maine,
a Townsquare Media-owned station, they have aired house edits in the past). Of the 4, this one seems to "work" the best.

Not sure what Promo Only released, neither of the T-40 stations I work with subscribe.

This seems like #3 just with the edited g_d d-mn throughout. It has the White Town intro for 6-8 seconds at the beginning and doesn't have that long stretch like the LP version does but ends around 3:55 on the LP version goes into the :15 seconds of instrumental. I have no reason to believe the 2:51 I have is not the proper radio edit. Unlike 15 years ago, no CD promo exists to check!
