although not in the db because of it's low peak chart position (#36 in billboard spring of 1999) but the fatboy slim song "praise you" was a hit non-the-less.....i have both the commercial cd single as well as the promo cd single as listed below

commercial cd single (astralwerks 66254)
1-praise you (no listed time; actual 5:21)
2-sho nuf (no listed time; actual 5:06)
3-the rockafeller skank (mulder's urban takeover remix) (no listed time; actual 5:54)

When I picked up the promo single, I was surprised to hear that the radio edit is pitched up considerably from the LP version.

The "Radio Edit" is actually a unique mix. Other than the speed differences noted by Eric, there are a few other major differences in the mix:

- It's in mono.
- There is a ton of compression (not limiting) that has been applied, at least to the intro.
- The intro has a lot of the bass filtered out, and the mid range has been boosted.
- The intro has a crackly record sound effect added.

There may be other differences, too, but those are the most obvious.
