Clay Aiken-This Is The Night

   Pat I just noticed that on the "Measure Of A Man" CD (RCA #54638) this song is not the 4:00 LP version that is listed in the DB, but rather the 3:30 version that I presume is the 45 version. Further, it's listed as a "bonus cut." Can you or anyone shed light on this? Could they have changed this on subsequent pressings?

	The song was listed as a bonus cut on the original pressing of the Measure Of A Man album as a bonus to fans since it was to be his winners song if he had won American Idol season two. Once it came out and ended up topping the chart instead of Ruben Studdards actual winners song, Flying Without Wings, im sure the label felt it would stimulate sales of the album. RCA/19 also treated A Moment Like This as a bonus cut on Kelly Clarksons first studio album, Thankful, as well. They also never stripped Solitaire onto Measure Of A Man as I recall after that turned out to be the suprise hit of hit of his two sided single The Way/Solitaire.
