Andy I'm with you; that early fade is AWFUL. In my head I thought it might work but it just sounds like old-school automation getting ready for satellite news to start.

I'm usually pretty accepting of edits and early fades and the like, but this one's hard to justify.

I wonder if any stations played the fade consistently through the song's chart run? It's hard to imagine.]]> Sat, 13 Jan 2024 22:34:40 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8917&PID=64258&title=skid-row-i-remember-you#64258 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8917&PID=64253&title=skid-row-i-remember-you#64253 Author: eriejwg

TM Century has both the faded version and album versions in
their library. However, when they issued the song on a
Golddisc, they serviced the album version.]]> Fri, 12 Jan 2024 11:20:06 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8917&PID=64253&title=skid-row-i-remember-you#64253 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8917&PID=64252&title=skid-row-i-remember-you#64252 Author: AndrewChouffi

My recollection is it was one of those times where the
record company supplied a shorter version of the cut simply
so programmers wouldn't balk at the length of the cut when
the promotion department was "going for adds".

No thought was put into the "editing" knowing that the
track was already receiving AOR support & unsolicited CHR
airplay and Atlantic knew that when it was on the air the
listeners would "demand" the full version as the short
version simply sounds like the DJ dumped the song early...

Revisiting this one; does anybody remember top 40 stations in your area at the time playing the full version or the faded version?]]> Thu, 11 Jan 2024 21:29:42 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8917&PID=64250&title=skid-row-i-remember-you#64250 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8917&PID=49392&title=skid-row-i-remember-you#49392 Author: eriejwg

That's exactly right. They simply faded the song early. ]]> Sun, 27 May 2018 09:29:06 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8917&PID=49391&title=skid-row-i-remember-you#49391 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8917&PID=49390&title=skid-row-i-remember-you#49390 Author: NightAire

The database mentions a "faded version" for radio; is that simply an early fade of the song?

(I'm 99% sure the station I worked for played the LP version; I remember it ending cold.)]]> Sun, 27 May 2018 01:19:59 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8917&PID=49390&title=skid-row-i-remember-you#49390
