Sounds like a more appropriate description for the 3:34
version is "greatest hits version."]]> Fri, 23 Jul 2021 11:07:59 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9630&PID=58711&title=huey-lewis-gwenyth-paltrow-cruisin#58711 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9630&PID=58709&title=huey-lewis-gwenyth-paltrow-cruisin#58709 Author: thecdguy

I did a quick comparison and it sounds like it's a very early fade. I'm not sure that it's even a "Single Edit", as Bellenger pointed out it was
possibly an early fade to make the song fit on HL&TN's "Greatest Hits" compilation. There's only 5 configurations for the single on Discogs, and none
of them show a 3:34 running time. It seems that it was only commercially released as a single in Australia and Germany, and the other 3 listings on
Discogs are 2 Promo CD Singles in the US and 1 Promo in Europe (the one with the 4:18 edit).

As for Airplay, I definitely don't remember the song fading that early on the radio, which makes me think the stations in my area either played the
full Album Version or faded the song early themselves - just not over a minute early like the 3:34 version. I noticed the 3:34 version fades out while
a verse is still being sung, and I remember hearing it on the radio fading out while the chorus was being sung. ]]> Fri, 23 Jul 2021 05:33:39 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9630&PID=58709&title=huey-lewis-gwenyth-paltrow-cruisin#58709 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9630&PID=58708&title=huey-lewis-gwenyth-paltrow-cruisin#58708 Author: eriejwg

Is the 3:34 'single edit' an actual edit of the 4:52
version or is the 3:34 edit just a very early fade of the
4:52 version?]]> Thu, 22 Jul 2021 18:51:29 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9630&PID=58708&title=huey-lewis-gwenyth-paltrow-cruisin#58708 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9630&PID=58707&title=huey-lewis-gwenyth-paltrow-cruisin#58707 Author: Jody Thornton

I checked out the video which seemed like a longer version than I was used to, except the end seems faded off. My version that I'm familiar with is the 4:52 one, that ends with Huey's improvisation, "Cruise with me babay-ah", and then Gwennyth signing back on the fade.

TM Century and TopHitsUSA both sent out the full album version, but individual stations may have decided to fade it out early or do a custom edit.

Paltrow can sing? I really need to hear this b/c I can't stand the way she talks. I missed yet another in the airwaves days.

Edit: No

Not sure, but it was a popular airplay hit back then. It seems odd they would play a long 4:52 version. At worst back then they probably did exactly what the 3:34 edit does and fade early...]]> Wed, 21 Jul 2021 18:52:30 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9630&PID=58699&title=huey-lewis-gwenyth-paltrow-cruisin#58699 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9630&PID=58698&title=huey-lewis-gwenyth-paltrow-cruisin#58698 Author: Bellenger1981

According to Discogs in the US, the 4:53 album version was released as a single.

I heard this from time to time back in 2000 I was always surprised that it did not chart on the Hot 100. I always remember it fading out at 3:34 just like the single edit.

Hope that helps.]]> Sun, 18 Jul 2021 12:05:52 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9630&PID=58660&title=huey-lewis-gwenyth-paltrow-cruisin#58660
