So I counted 13 songs that charted twice with the same version. The one
thing we never discussed is the songs that charted twice with an album
version and a single version. “Red, Red, Wine” had the short version first
that charted, then the album version tho the video and version I had on the
radio was the single version. “In Your Eyes” Peter Gabriel had a long and a
short version on its two chart runs. Anyways, that’s been something I had
been wondering about..Like I said, I understand a remix or a re-recording,
just don’t get why they would release a regular and a short version of the
same song.

"Red Red Wine" re-entered the charts when KZZP added the album version, including the "rap" by Astro, to their playlist in 1988. The song became a huge hit for KZZP, and the decision was made by Virgin to re-release the song nationally using the same version (the LP version) that worked for KZZP.
The second chart run for "In Your Eyes" was propelled by its inclusion in a movie, and the label used the exact same "short" promo version to service it to radio again, which is a remix.
