I've heard this particular song this way for nigh on 30 years and wonder how many other cheeky little additions to songs there are. The chorus refrain at the end of Summer Night City by Abba. Just as it fades out, I am pretty convinced that "Walking in the moonlight" becomes "F**king in the moonlight", even taking into account the Nordic Foursome's notoriously ropey accents.

After 4mins 5 secs -

N***a in Paris by Kanye West? Or are we looking for something a little more subtle??

I recall a single played on Radio 1 (back in the day) by The Beautiful South that had a load of swearing on at the end. I remember hearing at least one of the muppety daytime DJ's being caught by it (possibly the wonderful Ooooh Gary Davies...). It might've been 'Don't Marry Her', but I'm not 100% sure. 'Twas all very amusing though.

Yes, the album version of "Don't Marry Her..." has a slightly different lyric. The album version of "Who are You" by the 'oo also has one word slightly different to the radio friendly version.

I'm pretty sure one of the early lines in George michael's 'fast love' is

"All that bulls... Conversation" and that always seems to be played on the radio.

On 'Hey Jude' by the Beatles underneath the line "and then you begin" just before the 4 minute fade out section, you can hear John Lennon saying "Oh Fuc*ing hell". You have to listen carefully mind

'Bullshit is bullshit it just goes by different names' from The Jam's final single, Beat Surrender.

Another from the Jam 'Covered in shit and aches and pains' from 5 o'clock hero.

Its around 2.58 into the track. Clearly audible and deliberately left in.
