Tower Japan has sound samples up now. "Keeping the Faith" is the album version.

There were two pressings of the 45 in Canada. The first
featured the LP version. The second was the 4:44 "special
mix".

My copy definitely plays the remixed version.

The Japan 45 says "Special Mix" on the label, but I don't know if it actually plays that mix or not.]]> Wed, 22 Dec 2021 10:53:14 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9699&PID=59854&title=billy-joel-japanese-singles-collection#59854 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9699&PID=59852&title=billy-joel-japanese-singles-collection#59852 Author: Santi Paradoa

Paul:

That is a great point. These singles collections are
supposed to match the Japan 45s so it is possible they also
had the LP version as the single. We can't expect these
imports to match the US 45 versions for every song.]]> Wed, 22 Dec 2021 09:55:51 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9699&PID=59852&title=billy-joel-japanese-singles-collection#59852 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9699&PID=59849&title=billy-joel-japanese-singles-collection#59849 Author: Paul C

I don't have this import, but I found the listed times on
Tower Records' Japan site. Based on those times I have
determined several of the versions that they included on
this release. If the times are accurate then it's a mix
of 45 and LP versions.
