UB40 - The Way You Do The Things You Do

I noticed that one of the CDs in the database runs (3:15) for UB40's "The Way You Do The Things You Do." The other CDs are (3:01). I have two promo CD singles for this song:

PRCD 3262
1. non-described version (3:02)

PRCD 3613
1. With Instrumental Introduction (3:15)
2. LP Version (3:02)

Could the (3:15) version in the database be the "With Instrumental Introduction" version from my promo CD?

The version that appears in the database that appears on the soundtrack to "Black Rain" that runs (3:15) does not have the instrumental introduction you mention Aaron. This (3:15) version is identical to all other database versions up to the (2:25) point where background vocals start appearing on the (3:15) version. Could this (3:15) version on "Black Rain" be a 45 version (I doubt it since Whitburn lists the running time as (2:54))?

Did the Black Rain soundtrack get released at approximately the same time UB40's "The Way You Do the Things You Do" came out as a single? If so, then perhaps it would be more accurate to show the 3:15 version on the Black Rain disc with a "soundtrack version" comment instead of "neither the 45 nor LP version"? Whichever comment Pat prefers, I might also suggest that the database should in addition state that the 3:15 version on the Black Rain CD is not the same as the "With Instrumental Introduction" 3:15 DJ version. This would help subscribers avoid confusion.

This is a different mix from the version we're used to hearing. It's not just the vocals near the end. There are different effects on the vocals and instrumentation at different levels from the very beginning.

That sounds about right. Seems like a non-hit soundtrack version.
