Don't think so. The intros are noticeably different and not just editing differences. That's as far as I listened, so there might be other differences, too.]]> Tue, 11 Jun 2024 15:59:27 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=64836&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#64836 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=64835&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#64835 Author: AaronsAmazing

Is it possible to recreate the "Single Edit" using only the "7" Edit"? My local
radio station plays that version, and I would've just simply assumed it was a
custom edit they did to make it more "appealing" to listeners (rather than
accidentally getting hold of the US cassingle)…

I agree. I was music director of a small-market CHR thru much of the 90s, and we were VERY cautious about anything too "urban sounding". In several cases, we made our own rapless edits of songs that either didn't come with one or we were unable to get serviced with. We'd often play the unedited version at night when it was mostly teens listening.]]> Mon, 18 Feb 2008 18:29:14 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=14556&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#14556 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=14549&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#14549 Author: edtop40

I made a mistake on this. The "7" Edit" does in fact have the rap in it. It appeared commercially on an import CD. The difference is that the intro is a bit longer and it has a cold ending with the "slamming doors" sound effect. On the version on my cassette single, the intro is shorter with a fade out. Actual run times are 3:43 on the 7" edit and 3:49 on the cassette. Does anyone have more infomation on this?]]> Wed, 07 Mar 2007 14:29:13 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=9155&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#9155 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=7258&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#7258 Author: aaronk

I believe this version is on Billboard Top Hits 1993, but double check before purchasing.]]> Sun, 17 Sep 2006 00:24:35 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=7258&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#7258 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=7090&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#7090 Author: jimct

So as a DJ would you switch over because it's the lastest version sent to you or just because of preference? ]]> Wed, 30 Aug 2006 13:31:02 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=7071&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#7071 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=7062&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#7062 Author: kodamar

You are correct. I was going from memory, as all my station's TM discs have been retired to the locked closet since the hard drive started spinning... It was found that too many of them were growing legs after hours.]]> Wed, 30 Aug 2006 09:52:38 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1125&PID=7062&title=snaprhythm-is-a-dancer#7062
