Database CD entries containing the hit version of Brandy's "Sittin' up in My Room" runs 4:49-4:50. I have the song on my Promo Only Mainstream Radio subscription CD series, but it only clocks in at 3:58. I'm wondering if this may be an official radio edit. Does anyone have a promo single of "Sittin' up in My Room" who can relay the track listing and run time information?

Todd, I don't currently have a promo CD single for this one, but I have just found/tried to order a US promo "Remixes" CD single from GEMM (MUCH harder to do than for eBay/Amazon/Musicstack, in my opinion.) Hopefully I did it correctly, will be receiving it soon, and I will report on its contents if/when I receive it.

My U.S. commercial 7-inch single is the "radio edit" with a stated time of 3:53, but it actually runs 3:58. However, I vaguely recall that not all commercial single configurations contained the same version. (I would advise against relying on my vague recollections, including the one that there were two different cassette singles with different catalogue numbers, one containing the radio edit and the other a remix featuring LL Cool J.)

There were two separate commercial two-track CD singles for this song -- a standard and a remix single. I own both, but am at work and won't be home till late. I'll give you the timings if no one has by the time I get home.

There definitely is a promo CD single with the 3:58 radio edit, but I don't own it. I have one of the 2-track commercial CD singles that Brian mentioned. It's the remix version. Track 1 is the Doug Raheed Remix, and track 2 is the full-length album version.

I think there was also a maxi single with several remixes.

Thanks to everyone for the all the promo and commercial single information regarding "Sittin' up in My Room".
Is the Doug Rasheed Remix the same as the radio edit? Or is the radio edit an album version edit?

The Radio Edit is an edit of the Album Version.
