Just heard the A/C mix on the promo and it sounds entirely different than the version that I've always heard. Possibly a different vocal take. I know Jason that you said this is the version you heard. Anyone else heard the A/C over the single version?

In fact the A/C version has more punch. You can also tell about 10-15 seconds and the slightly slower pace the song builds up.

In fairness, Rich, the station that I used to listen to
was an AC station (98 WGRD in Grand Rapids, Michigan),
so it often played the AC mixes of Roxette songs. I even
remember that AC/sax version of "Listen to Your Heart".
:) When I would flip to top 40 radio, I remember hearing
the electric guitar-based single/album version of
"Fading Like a Flower".

I'm Sort of partial to the A/C version of the time when they were clearly superior for some songs to the released versions.
