Scandal’s "The Warrior" question

   Whitburn lists this as 3:35, but on CD it seems to run anywhere from 3:51 to 3:59.  Can anyone verify the true running time of the vinyl 45?

	My white label dj 45 states a running time of 3:35 and actually runs 3:36. It is an edit of the LP version.

	Good catch, Brian. My book doesn't have any indication of "LP Version" next to the song. I have the 45 at my parents' place, and it seems to me that commercial copies also used the edit.

	Thanks, guys. Grr, another single edit to try to track down.

	There's only two edits---both during the guitar solo. It's easy to make with some editing software.

	I have this track on two CDs, one of which is Here Come The Hits on Polytel CBS Direct from 1985. "The Warrier" runs about 3:36 on this CD, so I would assume it's the single edit. The CD also features a couple of other single edits. On Time-Life's Sounds Of The Eighties 1984 it runs about 3:56.

	David, ma man! Thanks, buddy! [Now it's just a matter of finding it... that's a Canadian-only comp!] Edited by Brian W.

	Aww, I got excited for a second, 'cause I thought, "Wait, I have that CD." But mine is "BRING ON the Hits," a 1987 Canadian CD from CBS. I have a couple late '80s Candadian comps... I really must go through them and see if there's anything unique there.

	Okay, I finally got a copy of the Canadian "Bring on the Hits" from Ebay, and it does indeed have what appears to be the 45 version of "The Warrior," running 3:33. It also appears it may have some unique 45 versions, which I'll detail in the "45 versions in import CDs" thread, so go there. Edited by Brian W.
