Clean Version please. If anyone knows where the version without the "nympho" part in it. Me and my partner are doing a cha cha to it and it's a youth program so our coach won't let us make choreography to it unless that word is taken out.

If anyone find this I would greatlty appreciate it. Or reccomend other songs that are like this song and still have a cha cha beat. Basically a cha cha where the woman is in "control"

If you can't find another version have someone edit the music to remove either that word or remove that phrase from the song. Most of the time the full version of a song is too long to dance too anyway. I typically edit a song down to 2 minutes or less for show or spotlight dances.

Who would I go to to have that edited. Aren't there copyright laws on th eCD that says you can't mess around with their music?

Yes there are copyright laws but that applies mostly to the playing of the song for the general public.
For any public performance the music is cleared mostly either through ASCAP or BMI. Dance studios should carry these. Any place that plays music publically is required to carry them. Generally for public performances if it is a one time performance ASCAP & BMI let it go.
There is also music considered in the public domain that can be played.
The ascap / BMI is to ensure that the artist / singer /sonwriter gets their just royalities.
There is software like adobe audition that does very good music editing but unless you want to spend $ and are going to do alot of music it is easier to go to a place like a professional recording studio and see if they will do it for a reasonable fee. Editing and changing the music is allowed so long as you don't sell it. I typically edit the music for both length and speed. If I have a "perfect song" that is too slow or fast I edit it to the speed I desire and then make it the length we want to dance. Gives us a lot more music options to dance to.
