The album version of Backstreet Boys' "Drowning" has a run time of 4:26, which reflects what's been on all database CDs to date. However, on my Promo Only Mainstream Radio DJ CD subscription series, there is an edit of the song which runs 4:12. According to the Discogs.com website, there was a promo CD single release for "Drowning" on Jive JDJ-42973-2 with the following tracks and listed run times:

1) Album Version - 4:29
2) Short Edit - 4:16

The disc also has a "Call Out Research Hook" on Tracks 3 and 4. If anyone who has a copy of the promo CD single could please pass along the actual run times, it would be much appreciated!

single are 4:27 and 4:13, respectively.

Does anyone know how to create the 'short edit' of

To answer my own question, I found a copy online to
listen to so I could determine that there is one edit.

Keep 0:00.000 to 3:38,872
Remove 3:38.872 to 3:52.406
Keep 3:52.406 to the end.

Resulting edit runs 4:12.

A second promo CD single was issued with 4 Dann Huff
country remixes. From Jive promo CD single JDJ-42996-2:

1 Drowning [Dann Huff's Remix 1] 4:33
2 Drowning [Dann Huff's Remix 1 Radio Edit] 4:20
3 Drowning [Dann Huff's Remix 2] 4:34
4 Drowning [Dann Huff's Remix 2 Radio Edit] 4:20

After removing silence, the actual times are within 1
second of each listed time.
