My commercial 45, confirmed as Chess 1845, has a listed time of (2:10), but
an actual time of (2:03). This info now brings the song a lot more into line,
time-wise, with its current database appearances, which all run between
(1:59) and (2:02).

Jim:
It's truly great to see you back out of "semi-retirement" here to once again resume bringing us valuable 45 run time info for Top 40 hits from 1963, just as you tirelessly have done in recent years for hits from 1964-1979! I don't know if this is just a temporary thing because I know how deeply committed you've been with working on other major music projects, but I'm hopeful you plan on continuing to share more of your timing info as your time and energy threshold permits. I can't tell you how helpful this sort of information is to my music collecting, my friend, and I'm sure I speak for others here as well!

All I can say, Todd, is that I max out, effort-wise, on my various music
research activities, 24/7/365. Still, I'm always behind. It remains in the back
of my mind, however, that many of my original Top 40 45s have yet to be
timed/reported on here. I hate having potential "45 version red herrings" still
unearthed, as I know you also do. Therefore, my other major projects need
to go on the "back burner" sometimes. Short-term, I'll do as many new
timings as I possibly can, and thanks for the kind words, buddy!
