I just obtained a promo CD single for M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes," and it contains the following:

1. Album Version (listed 3:24; actual 3:22)
2. Radio Edit (listed 3:24; actual 3:22)

The main difference between the two versions is that the "Radio Edit" removes the gunshot sound effects on the chorus. Instead, there is a cartoon-like door slamming sound effect in its place. It's my understanding that this version was not released anywhere else. I also recall seeing an interview with MIA, and she said she didn't approve of the record company removing the gunshot sound effects for the US radio promo.

Interesting info. I've never heard this song without the gunshot sound effects.
