ok, it wasn't a top 40 hit, but I have a question about the song "Breakin' Dishes' if anyone can help. I have the 2-disc import version of "Good Girl Gone Bad" (the second disc is all club mixes), and I noticed that in this song on the original CD, the word a-s-s is blocked out in the first verse. As far as I can tell, there isn't a release of this album that has an explicit warning label on it. So I'm wondering if there exists a version that doesn't bleep the word out--does anyone have the original US single disc pressing or 'reloaded' who can check to see if it's also bleeped out on these discs?

I have the original single disc, U.S. release and the word in question doesn't appear. It's not "bleeped" so much as she just doesn't say it at all, although it's clearly what she meant to say.

ok. Thanks Paul. Yeah, that's what I meant. It's one of those where the vocal is just removed instead of an actual audio bleep is put in. Odd that they released the record like that--especially since that word can pretty much get past the censors these days. Guess they simply didn't want to release two pressings of the CD for that one lyric.

All pressings of the album omit the word "asses".
Her latest single "Disturbia" is similar in that the word "shit" is dropped out on the album version, but appears on the remixes.
