Earlier home video releases suffered 2 examples of music replacement (presumably due to rights issues)
1) During the dinner scene between Irena, Paul, & Female (9:12-9:55): the song "Far Away Places" by Bing Crosby playing in the background was substituted for "Sunday Kind of Love" by Ella Fitzgerald
2) During the scene in which Ed Begley Jr sings "What's New, Pussycat?" (42:58-43:15): an alternate take was used where he sings "The Lion Sleeps Tonight."
CUTS
Blu-ray A Scream Factory, Collector's Edition America- Shout! Factory - No cuts - Theatrical version featuring Perry Como's "Far Away Places" & Ed Begley Jr. singing "What's New Pussycat?" (118:09).
Blu-ray ALL France- Elephant Films - No cuts (119:07).
Blu-ray ALL Germany- Koch Media - No cuts (118:08).
Blu-ray B Collector's Edition United Kingdom- Mediumrare - No cuts - Theatrical version featuring Perry Como's "Far Away Places" & Ed Begley Jr. singing "What's New Pussycat?" (118:09).
I presume the France & Germany releases are also Theatrical version with original songs, but as I do not own those releases I cannot confirm. The information I have updated for the France & German releases was compiled from reviews on DVDBeaver, Blu-Ray.com, & DVDClassik
