I ended up with a file 3:49 in length; do I understand correctly from the above posts that, sourcing from a CD, this is about as close as we can get to the original 45 length? Thanks for another great catch!

Yes, the beginning edit is very abrupt. Did you ever get the full edit complete?]]> Fri, 08 Feb 2019 20:33:48 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1583&PID=51227&title=here-comes-the-rain-again-eurythmics#51227 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1583&PID=51004&title=here-comes-the-rain-again-eurythmics#51004 Author: aaronk

The LP version (length), as I understand, fades to the 4:53 mark. The 45 version (length) runs 5:07, while the longest CD versions tend to fade to about 5:04. The last few seconds of the 45 are at an extremely low volume, so I can see why the CDs are faded a bit sooner. I'm not aware of any discs that run 5:07.]]> Sat, 19 Jan 2019 17:12:33 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1583&PID=51004&title=here-comes-the-rain-again-eurythmics#51004 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1583&PID=50949&title=here-comes-the-rain-again-eurythmics#50949 Author: Ron S

Anybody know where I can find the true 5:04 LP version of the song? All of the
ones on their CD have been faded early.]]> Fri, 11 Jan 2019 16:12:16 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1583&PID=50949&title=here-comes-the-rain-again-eurythmics#50949 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1583&PID=49802&title=here-comes-the-rain-again-eurythmics#49802 Author: Ron S

The ending here has the hey yeah with instrumental fade but the fade happens
way too early and you can barely hear the hey yeah which is heard in the
promo 45 version below.......

My recreation stops at the 3:31 point since I can't find the hey yeah part at the
end on the album version with the fade.

I distinctly remember that when this song came out, because 12" mixes and extended versions were all the rage, a display of the 7" at the checkout counter of my local Record World bragged that it was the "long version!", --which is kind of odd since it could easily have affected sales of the 12" single, which ran the same length. Not quite sure what the marketing plan was behind releasing a "long version" that was only like 10 seconds longer than the album version. ]]> Mon, 14 Jan 2013 07:31:20 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1583&PID=36420&title=here-comes-the-rain-again-eurythmics#36420 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1583&PID=36416&title=here-comes-the-rain-again-eurythmics#36416 Author: DJghr1

Just reporting that the version on RCA's '80s-era Touch CD fades from 4:23 to 4:53, and the version on Arista's 1991 Greatest Hits CD fades from 4:49 to 5:03. Same mix, different length.

There are a bunch of compilations that all use the same analog transfer as GH:

• Time-Life's Sounds Of The Eighties Vol. 27 Rolling Stone 1983-1985 (1995; digitally exactly 0.1 dB quieter)
• Warner Special Products' 2-CD Punk (1996; how exactly are the Eurythmics punk?)
• Sony Germany's 2-CD Pop And Wave Vol. 7 (1997; differently EQ'd digital clone, with early fade from 4:51 to 4:55)
• Time-Life's 2-CD Body Talk Vol. 21 Hearts On Fire (2000; digitally exactly 1.1 dB quieter)
• Time-Life's 2-CD Modern Rock Vol. 9 Mid-'80s (2000; digitally exactly 1.5 dB quieter)
• Time-Life's 2-CD Modern Rock Vol. 21 Club '80s (2001; differently EQ'd digital clone)

All of the above have a tiny but real amount of tempo drift, from 126.4 BPM at the beginning to 126.6 BPM at the end. You won't notice.
