Jim, do you know if the radio edit has ever been commercially released, or if it can be cut together from the various versions available?
I just loaded up the "Derrick Rap Edit" and had a hard time hearing where you could cut in the opening to drop the rap... I'm suspecting they just dropped his track or something similar... |

First off, Gene, sorry I apparently overlooked your 1/2012 question to me.
Personally, I stopped buying/collecting commercial copies at the end of 1989, coinciding with the end of reliably-released 45RPM singles. So I don't know the answer, as this song came out in 1990, and I had the version I wanted on the promo CD single. Ed may have its cassette single details.... Aaron briefly touched on parts of his 12" single earlier in the thread. I only own a stock 12" single (Virgin 0-96528), and here are the particulars: A Side: 1-(Street Mix) (listed 4:28) 2-(12" Mix) (listed 5:40) 3-(Dub Version) (listed 6:25) B Side: 1-Magnetic Mix (listed 4:53) 2-Club Mix (listed 6:01) 3-Party Dub (listed 3:09) Pat currently has 2 (6:47) "remixed" versions in his db. While both are likely the "Shut Up And Dance" Dance Remixes CD version, I thought it might still be useful to also list the 6 versions found on my 12". Edited by jimct |

I can now also officially confirm that commercial 45 copies of "Opposites Attract" by Paula Abdul (with The Wild Pair) states “7-Inch Version” on the record label, yet is the same as the "Derrick Rap Edit" and has an actual and printed run time of 3:45.
By the way, is anyone able to check and verify if the lone database CD running 3:36 that currently has a “neither the 45 nor LP version” comment is actually the 3:37 “radio edit” found on one of the promo CD single releases? |

I'll have a look to see if I have this CD at storage if nobody else provides the info first.
