    So, I'm a little baffled at the moment. My CD copy of Like Water for Chocolate indicates on the back cover that the version of "Geto Heaven" is "Geto Heaven Remix" with Macy Gray. Thankfully it's actually the original "Geto Heaven Part II" version with D'Angelo. I must have a rare misprint, maybe?

      Not sure what "edited" means, but this version definitely isn't clean haha

        I believe this UPC for the clean version listed here is incorrect. This would mean its the same as the explicit version. It may be 008811238025
