Just reviewed the cd Totally Hits 2005 and it included a 3:36 version of "Karma" by Alicia Keys. Does anyone have the 12" single that can verify this is perhaps the "45 version"?

The leadoff track for the commercial 12" is the 4:06 (label states 4:12) album version. The 3:36 version is the "radio version" found on the CD promo single (label states 3:39). This radio version is NOT on the 12" single. The other 3 versions on the 12" are "instrumental" - "KrucialKeys DJ Mix" - "Acapella"

Been proofing my 2005 and anyone remember that mashup of the instrumental of Superstition from Wonder and this song. It got a huge amount of airplay in New York at the time. It is also faster paced and runs about 3:49.

At least in my market the slow radio edit on the promo was never played. Anyone remember what they heard in their area back then?

Favorite two expressions to live by on this board: "You can't download vinyl" and "Not everything is available on CD."

In Chicago, I only heard 'Karmastition'. A great mix that turned a banal recording into something interesting.

Was disappointed, but not surprised, they couldn't get clearance for a commercial release.
