Heart - Crazy On You

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm trying to confirm the length of the song "Crazy On You" by Heart from the original album Dreamboat Annie.
I don't have the LP (or the 45), but pictures of the LP on ebay show the length to be 3:54 on the LP label.  Discogs also says the time is 3:54.  The database indicates the length to be around 4:54.  Most CD versions of the song are around 4:54.  Maybe a misprint on the LP(?)

I have the song on two CDs: Heart's Greatest Hits (AFZ 119) where the song is 4:55, and on Dreamboat Annie (DCC 1058) where the song is 4:20. Someone on another forum claimed that 4:20 is the original length of the song from the album, but that doesn't match the time printed on the LP label.

The time entry on the database listed for the DCC version of Dreamboat Annie is 4:53, not 4:20. The 4:20 time also doesn't exactly match the 4:16 time shown on the 45 label, or Ron's Hot 100 time for the stock 45 (4:14).

Anyhoo, If anyone can confirm the actual length of the original album version of "Crazy On You" it would be greatly appreciated.  And I think the database entry for the DCC version of the song should be changed from 4:54 to 4:20.  At this point, I'm not sure the 4:20 version matches the 45 version, the original LP version or some unique version for the DCC.  

I would be happy to send anyone the DCC version of this song if needed.  Thanks in advance.

Brad

	Here's a video of the song playing from the vinyl LP. It runs 4:46. https://youtu.be/mW145Rqge5k?feature=shared

	Thanks John, greatly appreciated. That closely matches the version on the Greatest Hits CD that I have. The major difference between this version and the 4:20 version on the DCC CD is the intro. I'm guessing some people consider all or part of the intro to be part of the previous song, "Dreamboat Annie (Fantasy Child)", and others consider it part of "Crazy On You". The times on the LP Label (and Discogs) seem to indicate it's part of "Dreamboat Annie (Fantasy Child)" but the numbers still don't add up (at least in my simple mind). I'm wondering which way the artists wanted it. (I know, I should probably just let it go) I ran into this on other CDs/Albums. For example, I have two versions of Pink Floyd's The Wall on CD that have different index points for various songs. Thanks, Brad
