   The version I've always considered to be the "hit" and the one I heard on MTV and CHR radio is track 2 from the promo CD: Metamorphosis Radio Version.  Track 1 (Metamorphosis Radio Edit) fades out during a chorus and doesn't have the chanting/babbling toward the end.  By contrast, the official music video does have the chanting toward end and has a cold ending with chicken sound effects.  TM Century also issued this version on HitDisc and GoldDisc as opposed to the "Edit" that fades out.

The official music video can be seen here:

	Thank you, Aaron, for the additional information. So to summarize from what I gather, there were two main versions, the album version and the Metamorphosis Mix with the latter being the more popular version (both appeared on the commercial cassingle but the Metamorphosis Mix was the one played on radio). The Metamorphosis Mix then had an additional two edit versions, Radio Version and Radio Edit. The Radio Version was the one primarily played on radio. So is it your opinion then that the Radio Version and Radio Edit are pure edits of the main Mix (with the N word removed as well as parts of the song cut out)? And by this I mean the Radio Version / Radio Edit didn't have any additional instruments or different arrangements, just pure edits of the Metamorphosis Mix?
