In music, a radio edit is a modification to make a song more suitable for airplay, whether it be adjusted for length, profanity, subject matter, instrumentation, or form. Radio edits may also be used for commercial single versions, which may be denoted as the 7" version. Sometimes the so-called "radio edit" versions are truncated versions of tracks in a manner similar to making them more suitable for radio since not all "radio edit" tracks are played on radio.
