I own two different promo CD singles for this song, and here are the rather confusing particulars, which feature an obviously inebriated listed timer:
3T-"Anything" (BSK 7374)
1-Single Edit With A Capella Intro (listed 4:18; actual 4:24)
2-Single Edit (listed 3:52; actual 3:57)
3T-"Anything" (BSK 7603)
1-Cool Out Urban Mix (listed 3:58; actual 4:00)
2-Cory's R&B Smooth Mix (listed 3:45; actual 3:49)
3-A Cappella Intro (listed 0:30; actual 0:29) (this intro runs continuously into Cut 4, which might have caused some on-air radio CD players trouble. At the time, we had ours set up to shut off at the end of the first cut selected, so it would've stopped at the 0:29 second mark. What they were obviously trying to do was to give radio the option to either include or easily cue past the a cappella intro, but this "track setup" was not a very good way to do it. Thankfully, I don't think I've ever seen another P CD S set it up this way.)
4-Single Edit (listed 3:45; actual 3:55) (FYI: total time of cuts 3 & 4 combined: 4:24, and to me is identical to cut 1 of the first P CD S I've listed)

That's interesting, Jim! Thanks for the info on those promos. The only disc I can think of that is similar to your 3T promo is "Love In An Elevator." On the back insert it lists:
4.1 Going Down
4.2 LP Version
My CD players don't have an index feature like some of the older ones, so I can't check to see if they actually indexed it this way. My old station's Denon CD cart machines allowed you to cue to a certain index within a track, so I wonder if the "Love In An Elevator" was set up to handle that.
