Justin Timberlake - Not A Bad Thing

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I just realized there are 4 different versions of "Not A Bad Thing," which is not currently noted in the database.  They are:

Explicit album version (full length, contains the lyric "you might f-- around...")

Clean album version (full length, mutes the "f" word)

Clean radio edit (shorter, mutes the "f" word, fades at the end)

iTunes single version (shorter, changes the lyric to "you might look around", different edit and ends cold)

I do not know the official names of the versions, so what I've listed are just descriptions based on the differences.  The version with the alternate lyrics appears on the Now 51 compilation, which is currently listed as "45 version" in the database.

	From I remember, the version featured on Promo Only Mainstream Radio April 2014 compilation muted the f-word and had a length of 4:21. This is the version I heard on 95.5 WPLJ in New York. I preferred the 4:27 single version that replaces the lyrics.
