I spotted that note yesterday, but it’s not exactly the same. At 3:05, there’s also an orchestral sounding synth note layered with the piano, which is not how the official Radio Edit sounds. That’s what led me to think they used the instrumental. ]]> Mon, 10 Nov 2025 11:21:55 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5529&PID=67496&title=gwen-stefani-rich-girl#67496 <![CDATA[Gwen Stefani - Rich Girl : aaronk wrote:I couldn't...]]> https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5529&PID=67493&title=gwen-stefani-rich-girl#67493 Author: AaronsAmazing

That same note also appears later into the LP version, at roughly 3:05 (right before the final chorus). When I did a custom edit a while ago, I just grabbed it from there.

Doing a comparison between the LP version and the "Radio Edit #1" (aka Get Rich Mix), the latter is the same mix as the LP version with two main differences. First, the "na na na" intro has been shortened (removing 0:00.6 to 0:10.4). Secondly, Eve's part from 2:22 to 2:41 of the LP version has been copied and inserted at the 10-second mark of Radio Edit #1.

I couldn't quite replicate the edit, because there is one piano note in Radio Edit #1 that is needed to bridge Eve's rap into Gwen's first verse. That note was likely borrowed from the instrumental.

Anyhow, the reason Radio Edit #1 is longer than the album version is due to the out-of-sequence edit that repeats part of Eve's rap.]]> Sun, 09 Nov 2025 09:45:55 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5529&PID=67490&title=gwen-stefani-rich-girl#67490 <![CDATA[Gwen Stefani - Rich Girl : I own the Australian CD single...]]> https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5529&PID=67488&title=gwen-stefani-rich-girl#67488 Author: AaronsAmazing

I own the Australian CD single for this song. Track 1 is the album version of "Rich Girl", clocking in at 3:58 (including silence). The other two tracks are live songs. The music video, which uses a slight edit of the U.S. Radio Edit #1 (also known as the Get Rich Mix) is also included as a low-res QuickTime video.

Nothing of real interest, but it proves that the "hit version" varied from country-to-country, as the U.S. promo edits weren't released commercially here in Oz.

I'm trying to find out for sure, but it APPEARS that the stand-alone digital single for "Rich Girl" may indeed have been Radio Edit #1 that runs longer than the album version.

Because I see one review of the import CD single on Amazon from 2005 that says, "The radio mix is available on a separate version of the single and also on iTunes -- it's longer than the album version and is just plain better."

If that's so, then the "45 version" of the song is longer than the album version.

My promo CD of "Rich Girl" contains two mixes: Radio Edit #1 (4:06) and Radio Edit #2 (3:46). These are both different lengths than the album version and are not currently noted in the database.]]> Sun, 18 Apr 2010 11:52:03 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5529&PID=26020&title=gwen-stefani-rich-girl#26020
