For many years, several releases of the beloved holiday movie The Muppet Christmas Carol did not include a ballad that was cut from the theatrical version because it did not test well with young children. Disney then reinstated into the VHS release. The song titled "When Love is Gone" was last used in a full-screen edition DVD, but has not been properly restored into the movie. It has only been seen as a special feature on digital releases and on Disney+

The reason why it could be not be put fully back into the film was that the original footage was presumably lost forever. However, the full director's cut of the film has at last been found and the song will be added back into the movie beginning with a 4K Ultra HD release. It might not happen in time for this year's Christmas, but I'm glad that people will, at last, get to see the movie in its true form.
