SAY WHAT?!!? i mean, it's not like i really give a crap that it's censored--i already have the real album which i listen to, but i was pretty surprised that it's not actually censored. the CD numbers are different, my regular Undertow is 61422-31052-2 whereas the edited is 61422-31073-2 (although they look the same). it's even 69 tracks (i thought the edited version was just 10...) the FAQ says the Wal-Mart version has different artwork--it doesnt mention anything about the tracks. did wal-mart really get pissed about the art, but not the songs? weird. __________________ "You think my lack of tact is bad, which is subjective.

Wal-Mart objected to the artwork but didn't have a problem with the content. Crazy, I know, but that's how it goes. __________________ Assistant Administrator http://www.dimwell.net

I actually bought it as of recent simply because it was the censored version. I was hoping the note would be inside, but it wasn't, to my dismay.

Aside from the art and the cover, the CD is exactly the same.
