Pat:
I just wanted to bring to your attention that my copy of the 2-CD various artist set Modern Rock: The Mid '90s on Time-Life R828-16 contains the Top 40 hit "Stay" by Shakespear's Sister with a run time of 3:47. Currently, the database doesn't list this song as appearing on this CD. |

Which version was the hit version in the U.S.? The
"Radio Mix" or the original "LP Version"? The U.K. CD single features an uncredited mix as track 1 (noted as "Radio Mix" on other releases). Track 2 is the "LP Version". This U.K. CD single notes "remixed by Chris Thomas" under the title, which I would assume is referring to track 1 only. But, who knows? Perhaps he remixed both tracks. According to Discogs, the U.S. CD album of "Hormonally Yours" lists "Stay" as being a remix by Chris Thomas. Do the U.S. CD single and U.S. cassette single (and the U.S. album, for that matter) feature this "Radio Mix" (remix by Chris Thomas) instead of the original U.K. LP Version (which may not be a Chris Thomas remix)? FYI. In case one is wondering about the difference between the two mixes, perhaps most noticeable is that the bass drum comes in at ~ 42 seconds on the "Radio Mix", whereas it does not come in until ~ 1:05 on the original LP version. The "Radio Mix" also has a rain/thunderstorm effect over the intro and a "ticking" noise starting at ~ 1:02. I am just curious which version was featured on the commercial single copies and album in the U.S. Thank you. Edited by Bellenger1981 |

I think the LP (non-mixed) version was the predominant
version played in the U.S. I don't recall ever hearing the "radio mix" on the airwaves back in'92-'93 |

I agree, I only heard the LP version on the radio in Texas.
