Boys Do Fall In Love must have narrowly missed qualifying for the database as it made it up to number 37 on Billboard. Does anyone know if this song has made any domestic CD appearances?

I have the Secret Agent CD, it's on MIRAGE 7-90170-2. Although this CD reads printed in West Germany it also states it's "distributed by Atko records a divison of Atlantic recording corp." and a NY address. So I would assume this is the US release.

Anyone have timing info for this 80s gem, either vinyl 45, LP or both? If I recall correctly the 45 ran less than four mins. but on the LP the song was over five mins. long. Can the longer album cut be edited down to the shorter single version?

My Secret Agent cd must be an import because "Boys Do Fall In Love" has an actual time of (5:17) on mine. The title of the song is repeated at the very start plus Robin's vocal kicks in at the one minute mark. On the 45 his vocals start at 23 seconds plus the title does not repeat at the beginning.

BTW, the entire Secret Agent LP is now on iTunes (including "Boys Do Fall In Love").
