Jefferson Starship "Miracles"

If you want to get a song on the radio, record companies create a "radio edit" of the original song. In the case of "Miracles" from Jefferson Starship, the original version of the song clocked in at just under seven minutes and contained a verse about going down on a woman. After receiving a haircut, the radio edit of "Miracles" dropped the sexual lyric and the length of the song fell to 3:25.
