I only remember hearing the "Remix" on my local radio
stations. I much prefer the "Remix" and cannot find it
on CD anywhere, including the U.S. promo CD (which,
again, I cannot find anywhere for sale). Does anyone
know where I might be able to purchase it? I've been
looking to have the "Remix" in lossless quality for
years now. It amazes me that the U.S. hit radio version
of this song is not even available to download today.
Then, again, I suppose that this holds true for a lot of
songs. A&M was really guilty of doing this.

Welcome to the board! I'll have a look to see if I can find an extra copy of the promo CD single in my collection.

The 90s were a tough time for collectors if you didn't
work in radio or at least have access to promo issues.
Lots of hit songs that were never commercially released,
and differed from the album version.

In your search don't overlook subscription promo CDs like
TM Hit/Gold Discs, or similar ones from Jones/BPI or Top
Hits USA (I think they were still around when this song
was out). Lots of label sampler promo CDs back then too.
Any/all of these turn up occasionally at record shows or
the usual on-line outlets.

For what it's worth, I only heard the remix as well. You will find Bellenger1981 that some of the best songs are simply not on CD or have never come out in their single/radio or 45 versions. Even some radio edits have never made it to CD. Welcome to the board, check your PM and find a welcome message from me.

Such kind, helpful folks here! I appreciate the
welcome and the information!

I've been browsing this board for at least a couple of
years now. In the process, I've re-created dozens of
radio edits and single versions thanks to the editing
instructions provided by many of you here. I was
excited to finally become a member of this board.

I am a huge fan of collecting single versions, radio
versions, remixes, and edits. After all, these are the
versions that I grew up hearing on the radio. This
forum has been a massive help! I'm currently adding
songs to my USB flash drive for my car (and for my
family members as well). I love being able to include
the hit versions of these songs over the album
versions (in most cases, that is).

Thank you, again!
