Track 2 on MCA5P-3016, labeled "Wild Bomb," runs 5:53. I have a dub of the vinyl 45 (presumably the US 45), and the "Wild Bomb" version exactly matches the vinyl 45. Given that the cassette single runs 5:54, I'd say it's safe to assume that the "Wild Bomb" version also matches the cassette single version, but I don't have a dub of the cassette single to confirm with 100% certainty.]]> Thu, 30 Apr 2020 08:07:33 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=54309&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#54309 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=54307&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#54307 Author: thecdguy

So if I'm reading this correctly, the true 45/Cassette Single version running around 5:54 and labelled as "(Edit)" has never been issued on CD in the US, either on Commercial or Promo CD copies, also not on the "Bat Out Of Hell 2 Deluxe Edition" and is only available on import CD Singles? ]]> Thu, 30 Apr 2020 07:23:39 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=54307&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#54307 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=44273&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#44273 Author: aaronk

Just last week, I acquired an additional promo CD single for "Objects." Here are the details:

MCA5P-3025
1. AC Radio Edit (listed & actual 4:56)
2. AC Edit 2 (listed & actual 5:51)
3. AC Edit 3 (listed & actual 7:38)
4. Full AC Version (listed 10:15; actual 10:16)

Finally, five years after Paul's question, I can confidently say that the "Wild Bomb" version from the first promo CD that Jim lists above is NOT the same as the "AC Edit 2." It appears that the AC promo has the same length edits as the regular promo, but obviously the edits are of the AC version.]]> Mon, 31 Aug 2015 09:20:06 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=44273&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#44273 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=26494&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#26494 Author: Paul C

I don't have the "deluxe" CD, but I compared an iTunes download from it that iTunes calls the "AC Edit 2 aka Wild Bomb AC" with my U.S. commercial 45, and one difference I noticed immediately is that the channels appear to be reversed; for example, the guitar that is briefly heard at about 2:00 is in the right channel on my 45 but in the left channel on the CD. But a more significant difference is that the instrumental break beginning at about 4:07 features a guitar solo on my 45 but some type of synthesizer/keyboard on the "AC Edit 2 aka Wild Bomb AC".

The question remains whether this "Wild Bomb AC" version and the "Wild Bomb" version from the promo CD are the same. If the latter also has the guitar at 2:00 in the left channel and a keyboard solo at 4:07 instead of a guitar solo, then it is not the commercial single version.

I can add that the commercial 45 (MCA 54848) is listed 5:54 and runs about the same, with a relatively abrupt fade. I see it's about the same time as the "Wild Bomb" version but like Ed, I don't have that version to compare.]]> Mon, 17 May 2010 16:42:41 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=26493&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#26493 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=26202&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#26202 Author: chrishatch

Two cuts in the Very Best version:

-Remove four bars of the chorus, from 8:14 to 8:29, at the downbeats, on the word "Objects"

-Remove four bars of the chorus, from 9:08 to 9:23, again on the downbeats.

Otherwise, the tracks seem to line up almost perfectly.]]> Tue, 27 Apr 2010 18:40:18 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=26201&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#26201 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=26200&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#26200 Author: chrishatch

There's a 9:41 version on The Very Best of Meat Loaf. How does this differ from the LP version?]]> Tue, 27 Apr 2010 16:34:53 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=26200&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#26200 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=6390&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#6390 Author: edtop40

i just a/b the cassingle versus the import cd single which has the first track as an "edit" version running 5:54 and the two are identical.....the cassingle does not state a version......the cassingles (the official single release) run time should be noted in the db....i don't have the promo cd single to compare the other tracks on it, but looking at the run times the official single verion may be there as the "wild bomb" version

Pat:

The back of the outer plastic slip sleeve that packages the Bat out of Hell II (Deluxe Edition) CD indicates that the version of "Objects in the Rear View Mirror..." running 5:51 is the "Wild Bomb" mix, and the version running 7:37 is the "Wild Car" mix. As Jim has noted, both of these mixes are on the DJ CD single. Currently, these versions are both listed in the database as: (remix).]]> Sat, 15 Jul 2006 11:45:05 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1188&PID=6374&title=objects-in-the-rear-view-mirror#6374
