How is it that there was never an extended
version, club remix, etc. ever released of this track? Especially with it
charting in the clubs, you would think they'd want more than four
minutes.
Especially if you're releasing this to radio on a 12", you'd think one side
might have the LP version, and the other side an extended version for
club play...
To my knowledge even the expanded re-releases of the album don't
have an extended version, so it wasn't even attempted in 1984?

I own a US promo 12” of TMIND. That promo 12” is a three track
sampler of three select cuts from Jermaine’s LP. “Do What You Do” was
paired with another track (the title escapes me at the moment). The
other side has TMIND. Arista never released a stand alone promo 12”
of TMIND.

"Escape From The Planet Of The Ape Men" (not one of my
favorites...)

Thanks to two vinyl dubs from Aaron, I can confirm that there's a length difference between the LP and 45 versions.
The 45 version runs 4:19. The fade ends immediately after the word "dreaming".
For the LP version, the fade starts in the same place as the 45 and decays at the same rate as the 45, but the tail of the fade runs about 10 beats longer to 4:27. I got my LP version from the CD Arista's Perfect 10.
As a practical matter, you won't really notice it. The extra 10 beats are way down in volume at -40 dB.
