My promo 45 on this has ONLY an edited mono version on both sides. It is listed as (3:19), but is actually (3:25). If a song went past 4:00 while listening to Top 40, my internal "warning-too long for AM" buzzer went off; it never did on this one, concluding I must've heard only this short version on '71 radio. Got played everywhere; J5 still ridin' that "4 #1 hits in '70" momentum.

Interesting comment Jim. My dj copy runs (4:31) even though the label states (4:29) and is mono on one side, stereo on the other but both run (4:31). I have already added your (3:25) edit information to the database.

I have the dj copy that runs 4:31 (label states 4:29) as well. Thinking I could recreate this fade from the LP version, discovered at about 4:29 on the LP version, there is some instrumentation that overpowers the vocal, whereas on the promo 45, the same instrumentation is buried behind the vocal.

The database note next to the song title lists times for the DJ and stock 45s. It doesn't mention anything about the LP run time, nor does it have comments next to the CD listings. Stereo versions on CD run between (4:38) and (4:44). Pat, do you know the actual LP run time on this?

There is at least one difference between the 45 version and every stereo version I've heard. On the stereo version at (2:04), after Michael has sung the chorus for the first time, his brothers sing "Maybe she won't." This line was mixed out of the 45 version.

I don't think it got played in Boston. I don't remember the song, and a check of summer '71 surveys from both WMEX and WRKO shows that it didn't chart on either station. Gave a listen to it on the Anthology album, and it didn't sound familiar.
Both stations were being affected by FM competition (mostly album-rock WBCN), and were steering clear of some of the more blatant teenybopper songs that summer/fall (though I did see songs by the Partridge Family & various Osmonds charted).

That one got a decent amount of play at WCRO in Johnstown, PA.
Paul C is correct about the vocal at 2:04 in the stereo mix.
I always thought the song was a bit tedious and didn't have a great hook like their other hits.
It peaked #20 on the Billboard pop chart, I wonder if it did better on the R&B side?
the way it was heard on the radio

Much better on the R&B chart (peaked at #3 for 2 weeks).

I created my own short version after listening to a dub of the short promo 45.

My own promo of this song runs 4:29.
