my commercial cassingle of the song "i know" by dionne farris does not state a version or run time on either the sleeve or the cassingle itself, but runs 3:46 and is identical to the full length album version also running 3:46......the db erroneously shows that all these entries are the lp version....but the lp version IS the single version......there is a "radio edit" version which runs slightly shorter (3:26) from the promo cd single "esk 44k77810"
these entries in the db should be corrected...

The radio edit is the album version with a shortened intro, and a cold ending. I've never noticed any mix differences.
Actually, there are 2 versions of "I Know" on the CD...the one that got most of the airplay, and a slower funkier version. The station I was at in the mid 90s didn't get particularly good service from Columbia so we used the album. For whatever reason, the PD preferred the other version though we did change over at some point during the song's chart run.

The CD single (Columbia 44K 77810) has five tracks, with the "single edit" as
Track 1 (listed time 3:25), as well as the "NY reprise mix" (3:49) and the
"acoustic roots-extended edit" version ('5:03). I cannot confirm, but assume
the "radio edit" and the "single edit" are the same.

As a rule, are we only counting 2-track singles when determining the "single version"?

I believe so, unless there was no two-track.
