GOLDEN EARRING - Twilight Zone

Sounds like the promo edit is also faster than the stock
edit (if the YouTube link is any indication).

When comparing the promo edit to the stock 45 version, the section from 2:40 to 3:13 is removed, and the promo fades sooner. As Doug indicates, the promo runs a little faster, too.

According to the Feb 18, 1983 edition of R&R mag, 86 stations were playing it.
It just never made it past "New And Active". Possibly if it was a 40 position
chart-as it later became-itwould have charted.

It doesn't get as many spins as Radar Love, but I do
hear the song on Classic Rock stations locally these
days.

Most likely it would've cracked the R&R Top 40, had the chart gone that far down, likely stalling somewhere around #35 or so.

I remember lots of airplay on the local rock stations and just heard it a handful of times on the Top 40 stations. The fact that it hit #1 on Billboard's Rock Tracks chart confirms that it was a big rock hit, not so much Top 40.
