Billy Ocean - Get Outta My Dreams 45/LP

I was just listening to both the LP version and also the
45 version on Qobuz. Here's an interesting observation.

1) On the LP version, the car start SFX begins in the
RIGHT channel.

2) On the 45 version, the car start SFX begins in the
LEFT channel.

3) On the actual 45, being played here on YouTube, the
car start SFX begins in the LEFT channel.

I wonder why there's a difference...

And, I found the video on VEVO and the car starts in the
RIGHT channel.

I'm thoroughly confused.

Yeah, I'd say that Youtube would be unreliable to test any versions, as there are too many variables that can't be controlled.
At least when checking left and right channel orientations.

Since Google is phasing out the Google drive, and converting libraries over to Youtube in the coming months, I think there will be even
more content available to just listen to if subscribers decide to make their libraries public.

As to the Billy Ocean song, isn't there a version that doesn't have the "Car starting" at the intro? Or, am I confusing that with Pink Cadillac? (Not the Springsteen
version.)

You're right MM. It was Google Play, my mistake.

I mentioned that service b/c I did upload a number of tracks back when it was new. I have to admit, I never actually revisited those uploads, so the changes had little effect
on my account. Home based networks and storage have been getting better in price. That's mostly why I didn't need it.

I just checked the Single Version on the 2-Track Promo CD Single and it starts in the right channel.
