The database does show correct DJ CD single run time info for Michael Bolton's "Georgia on My Mind", though the track descriptions on my copy (Columbia CSK 73490) break down more specifically as follows:

1) Single Version Edit - 3:08
2) Single Version - 4:57

I believe I've also uncovered a 45/LP version difference here... On the promo CD single, both tracks contain a saxophone during the intro not heard on Bolton's parent LP/CD Soul Provider (Columbia 45012). (I also checked my Michael Bolton Greatest Hits 1985-1995 CD (Columbia 67300) and there is no saxophone during the intro either). According to the 7th edition of Joel Whitburn's Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits, Kenny G is credited with a sax solo on the single.

Unfortunately, I no longer have my cassette single copy, but if someone who has a commercial 45 or cassette single who can double-check it for us to make 100% certain there is saxophone on it, it would greatly be appreciated!

Thanks a bunch, Ed! Looks like Pat has already added a comment next to each of the database CDs specifying which version of "Georgia on My Mind" is on them.
