That answers my question, Aaron.

Sounds to me like the Japan CD does a crossfade at the edit point, which is not correct. The US 45 has a straight edit on the snare hit, so you don't hear the "oooh" vocal before the drum beat.]]> Sun, 30 Oct 2022 16:53:53 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1370&PID=62041&title=some-things-are-better-left-unsaid#62041 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1370&PID=62040&title=some-things-are-better-left-unsaid#62040 Author: Bellenger1981

Listening to the 45 version on the Japan "Best Of", to my
ears, the "ooooh" vocal comes in before the snare at 2:11,
so isn't the edit actually just before the snare at 2:11? I
was unable to re-create this edit, for that reason, or
maybe I could not get it at the right point. I'm wondering
if it is a unique mix, at least at the section. Just
curious what others think.

The 45 version of 'Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid'
is definitely on the Japanese import "The
Best Of Daryl Hall And John Oates".
The actual 45 version of 'Method Of Modern Love' is on
there as well.]]> Thu, 09 Jan 2020 02:27:02 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1370&PID=53253&title=some-things-are-better-left-unsaid#53253 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1370&PID=53161&title=some-things-are-better-left-unsaid#53161 Author: garye

I have a 256k MP3 of the actual 45 dub.
Anyone interested welcomed to PM for a copy!]]> Thu, 19 Dec 2019 20:20:06 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1370&PID=53161&title=some-things-are-better-left-unsaid#53161 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1370&PID=53147&title=some-things-are-better-left-unsaid#53147 Author: Steve Carras

I thought I had posted edit details for this in an
older thread.. I did and found the instructions, but I
just checked the LP version and noticed my edit points
in that old thread were for a "pitch corrected" LP
version. The 45 was sped up a bit.
Here are the edit times for the non-pitched LP
version:

These times assume you'll make edits starting at the
intro [the later times are only accurate if you've
already done the first edits].
There are 3 edits:

Edit on downbeat from :04 - :21 in intro.

Edit on snare from 2:11 - 2:27

Edit on snare from 3:43 - 4:08

Now in that result, edit off remaining audio after
4:04 then fade from about 3:46 to 4:04. The last
thing you hear at the end of the fade is the word
"unsaid"

I don't have the exact pitch number but you'll speed
up your result so it runs 4:02.

Here is a Youtube reference for the 45 to be sure of
your edits (note the record doesn't start playing
until :19 seconds in:

Yes, like Aaron said, there was indeed a Promo 45 of
"Maneater" running 3:26 and that version is on the
Japanese "Best Of". The Promo Edit of "So Close" is
also on there as well, even though the actual promo CD
single incorrectly listed it as "Single Edit".

Regarding “Maneater,” there is a US promo 45 edit that trims the intro
and sax solo, and I’m pretty sure it also fades early. ]]> Sat, 14 Dec 2019 19:22:51 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1370&PID=53112&title=some-things-are-better-left-unsaid#53112
