Bumping this up for anyone who wants to list all the edited songs in this weekend's 12/18/1976 show (and any others as well). There were four edited songs that I caught on the Premiere version of the 12/18/76 show. There are probably some I missed, like "Living Thing". I am not including short versions the record companies made, like "More Than A Feeling" or "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" and quite a few others. 25 The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald 7 Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word 4 Muskrat Love (The 2nd verse was cut, not the part were the muskrats go at it.) 3 You Don't Have to Be a Star So the big question is, were these original show edits or Premiere edits?

4 Muskrat Love (The 2nd verse was cut, not the part were the muskrats go at it.) The latter is the part that SHOULD have been cut! Did AT40 ever play a version where that disgusting bridge was edited out? I'm thinking probably not.

On Part 2 of the AT40 Top 100 of 1984, the #46 song for the year "I Can Dream About You" by Dan Hartman had the instrumental bridge and last verse before final chorus cut out. It may be ABC Watermark original or Premiere edit.

Not an AT40 Watermark/Premiere edit: But every time I hear Pat Benatar's "Love is a Battlefield" (even it was featured in the AT40 Top 100 of 1984!), I try to add in the extra spoken lines seen in the music video tied in to the song: First chorus: "YOU LEAVE THIS HOUSE NOW!" "YOU CAN JUST FORGET ABOUT COMING BACK!" Second verse after second line: "LEAVE ME ALONE!"

On AT40: The 70's 1/4/1975 "Please Mr. Postman" by the Carpenters got shortened omitting the first chorus, instrumental bridge, and second verse - Premiere edit, I guess.

The 1/4/1975 edit of Junior's Farm by Paul McCartney and Wings was really bad.

I'm listening to the 1/12/2002 show and so far I heard at least two songs that have been looped in random places. It gets a little annoying, especially if it's a song you don't care much for.
Edit: Make that three.

I believe that holds the distinction of being the first hit with a video that incorporates character dialogue that isn't part of the song.

Edit: Make that three. Yep, one of the characteristics of AT40 2.0, during Casey's years, anyway. The worst was an AT20 show in 1998, when the second verse of Vonda Shepard's "Searching My Soul" was repeated TWICE! Even if it's a song we like, it just sounds very much out of place.

On AT40: The 70's 1/17/1976 that is the shortest timed playing of Silver Convention's "Fly, Robin, Fly" I ever heard, just the first 2 "Fly Robin Fly/Up Up To the Sky" line singings followed by the first playing of the instrumental bridge. As Casey Kasem, who voiced Robin the Boy Wonder in the 1968 Filmation Batman cartoons and later Hanna-Barbera's Super Friends cartoons would say "Holy editing by Watermark or Premiere, Batman!"

Looping in random places was also characteristics of Shadoe AT40 in the early to mid 1990's.
