paul young "what become of brokenhearted"

need a little help here on this one......does anyone have a promo cd single for the song "what becomes of the brokenhearted" by paul young..........my promo cd single is issued as mca cd45-2106.....if so....what is the actual running time of the song on your disc......the cassingle and 45 both run 4:05 and is a slight remix of the full 4:35 cd/lp version.....my promo copy issued as cd45-2106 runs 3:50......the reason i'm asking this question is that i have another mca issued song from a band called indecent obsession titled "tell me something" and this song has TWO promo cd singles issued with the outside inserts stating the same catalog number but the disc itself stating a different catalog number........the versions on these 2 disc are different as well........i'm just taking a stab at trying to find a promo cd single issued somewhere with the correct 45/cassingle version of the song "what becomes of a brokenhearted".........anyone??

Ed:

I have a sneaking suspicion that the 45 is some sort of remix...

What Becomes Of The Brokenhearted

The label says - Original version appears on the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack FRIED GREEN TOMATOES album.

Since I hadn't gotten to this song yet, ordered the 45 today. Will be anxious to hear the remix.

I was just comparing the LP and single versions and although the remix differences are somewhat subtle, the big difference is that the two versions have a completely different sax solo! The single version solo mirrors the chorus melody in its opening phrases while the album version is much more free form. The length difference is due to an early fade.

Ed, I'm a little confused as to why you would ask others for the "actual
running time" of a CD45-2106 promo CD single that you already own, but
no matter. Although my 1-track promo has a listed time of (3:50), it's
actual time is (3:48). But it exactly mimics the TM version info mentioned
later in this thread, with the song's audio level during the last 5 seconds
or so being so low as to be basically inaudible. Radio would've dumped
out of it at 3:42-ish. FYI. this was the only promo CD single for the song
that we got into our station back in 1992.
