Here was the original entry from ThisTropeIsBleep. Perhaps I messed up the original meaning. Then again, I wasn\'t exactly running on fuel when I wrote the page for [[{{MIA}} M.I.A.]]

At Jamba Juice, the music that plays is from disks sent to the stores from the company. In an effort to be more hip, the disks have been including more recent hits, like [[{{ptitlerxsk4f56}} M.I.A.]]\'s \

** No, those sound effects are always there. Seriously. There was even an interview with her asking why she decided to do this.
*** I\\\'m pretty sure the original poster meant that the \\\'\\\'sound effects themselves\\\'\\\' were censored out, presumably for the violent implications, but now leaving the lyrics ambiguous as to whether she meant something violent or sexual (the former being obvious in the original song).
*** I think there\\\'s a version of the song where the gunshots are replaced with less suggestive sound effects, leaving the meaning of what was \\\"censored\\\" open to interpretation.

So...uh...you can make your inferences and corrections now.

Well, that entry wasn\'t actually written by me. I\'ll still try to clear things up. In the censored version that I\'m familiar with, the gun sound effects were replaced with popping noises. See here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_rLOyYWZ8M
