On a side note, radio also played the LP cut of Ain't it Funny, which was Jennifer Lopez's solo single. That's why the release song is titled remix and is not the original single. I still remember hearing it play on the radio at times, it was VERY catchy. I include it in my collection even though the remix is the justified #1 hit. Apparently no one thought better to change the name of the song, just add Murder remix to it to differentiate it. Same with "I'm Real"...ah the 2000's.

I agree. The station I worked for during this time period actually played both the original versions and remixes of "I'm Real" and "Ain't It Funny," although the remixes received significantly more airplay. I seem to recall the original mixes being dayparted to morning and midday.

This is the version my station played, though we did edit off the spoken intro, and started when the drums kicked in. I have a very different version on a couple of TM Hitdiscs. Is that the album version? |

Hykker, yes, that's the LP version of "Ain't It Funny," which did get played on a fair amount of stations, apparently.

Can anyone check if on their 2002 promo for Ain't It Real [Remix] if the word "ass" a few seconds in (It Must be the ass...) is censored? All versions I can find do not censor the word..
The existing US comps it is on (Lopez's GH and J-Lo's 2002 Remix album, both have ass). I don't think Exodus by Ja Rule came out Clean, only in Explicit.. Edited by PopArchivist |

Favorite two expressions to live by on this board: "You can't download vinyl" and "Not everything is available on CD."

I always thought the word "remix" was quite loosely used
in the case of "I'm Real" and "Ain't It Funny". They were nearly completely different songs than the original works. |

The promo CD single for the "Ain't It Funny" remix leaves the reference to the future Mrs. A-Rod's posterior intact. |
