My "Somebody's Watching You" commercial 45, which is mono, has a listed
time of (2:46), but an actual time of (2:55).

The other Little Sister song in the database, "You're the One" shows (part 2) as being the hit. According to Top Pop Singles the charting version in 1970 was (part 1).

Can someone verify which side was the hit.

Billboard Magazine didn't specify which side was the charter, in what I've been able to find in searching their back issues online....

I always wondered why Eric Records released both Part 1 & Part 2 combined of "You're The One" instead of just one side or the other.

You must have an older version of Top Pop Singles. The last couple of editions have shown Part II as the "hit" side.

with regards to the little sister song "somebody's watching
you"...if you slow the cd version from below down to 73.50
bpm's, you'll effectively match the vinyl 45 speed and
length of 2:54....

Ed, you must have an older edition of that book. We've since changed it to Part II as the "hit" side.

I can help with that:
Bill Buster researched a thread about it, i thought it
was on this board, but i can't find it - so it may have
been at the BSN site, or Hoffman, not sure it's been so
long.
Bottom line was, it seemed split down the middle as some
folks heard Part 1 in their market, while others heard
Part 2. It varied wildly throughout the country.
Well, the obvious solution was to release the entire
unedited version, since either part can be extracted from
it.   Yes, it's really long, but that way was no one was
left out.
