Any chance anyone knows what CD or digital avenue to look for the 45 version of this song?
The video runs about 2:45, but some versions run 3 minutes and the LP runs 3:11. Huge airplay hit in 1982. |

There's no US or Canadian 45. I'd assume US radio played the Upstairs at Eric's LP.
After trimming leading silence: • The official 4K video on YouTube fades out at 2:50.0. The older official video on YouTube fades out at 2:45.4. Keep in mind that the audio on these has probably been replaced; the original soundtrack was probably not stereo. • The Upstairs at Eric's 1986 UK CD (CD STUMM 7) fades out at 3:04.2 and plays 0.4% faster than all the others I checked. • The 1982 German 45 (INT 811.805) fades out at 2:53.1. • The 1996 UK CD single (CDYAZ001) fades out at 2:52.3. It has weak/noise-reduced reverb; avoid. Same bad mastering was used on the Mute Audio Documents 2000 UK CD box set. The song is on numerous compilation CDs. However, I searched my favorite file-sharing network and was unable to locate any CDs which fade out exactly like the (German) 45. If I were trying to match it, I'd just do a smooth (S-curve) fade out of the Upstairs at Eric's CD from 2:36 to 2:53 and would not worry about the very slight speed difference. Edited by mjb50 |

Thanks. I am aware there is no 45 in the US. I am assembling a non-Hot 100 1980's assembly and the one that sounds the best to me ends at 2:45. I guess I will go with that one.
