Harry Styles "Aperture"

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

   Last month, Harry Styles released his comeback single "Aperture" and I've read in online forums and articles that it is getting radio airplay (I have not heard it on my local stations yet). The song is definitely a change of musical direction for Harry Styles compared to his previous work.
The Single Version released is a full 5:11. Has an official radio edit been released (or leaked)? In the Pulse Board forums, there are talks of a shorter radio edit.

Promo Only released the song on their March 2026 compilation but it is the Album/Single Version (albeit slightly shortened to 5:07).

	There has been quite a bit of discussion in the radio community that the song is too long at 5:00 plus. I haven't seen an official radio edit as of yet. Promo Only did offer a PO Quick Edit at 2:15. Even though that's not an offical edit, it's the edit I placed in my music library.

	Columbia is pushing the full 5 minute version. There is no official edit however several radio stations have taken it upon themselves to shorten the song. Edited by codycoperadio - 14 hours 55 minutes ago at 9:00pm

	I finally heard it on one of my local stations in New York, K104.7. They played most of the song but the DJ cut it at 4:45 so the full outro was not played.
