In May of 1990, Motley Crue released "Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)". It would become a Billboard top 20 hit for the band.

The database lists the LP version and commercial single version as being the same length, but there was also a promo edit that I remember running on the local Rock 40 I worked at, and that edit is the basis for the video mix (minus the video's traffic noise at the beginning).

The promo CD is https://www.discogs.com/release/2256800-M%C3%B6tley-Cr%C3%BCe-Dont-Go-Away-Mad-Just-Go-Away - https://www.discogs.com/release/2256800-M%C3%B6tley-Cr%C3%BC e-Dont-Go-Away-Mad-Just-Go-Away

The video (U-matic!) is https://www.discogs.com/release/32064513-Motley-Crue-Dont-Go-Away-Mad-Just-Go-Away - https://www.discogs.com/release/32064513-Motley-Crue-Dont-Go -Away-Mad-Just-Go-Away

If someone else has either of these, they should be able to verify length(s).

I remember that the edited version is included in the promo
cd Hitmakers vol 36.

Thanks to Aaron, I can confirm the promo length is exactly 4 minutes (actually 4 minutes, zero seconds, and 387 milliseconds... but who's counting?), starting note to final cymbal fade.
