Both sides of my promo 45 have a listed time of (3:24), but both have an actual time of (2:38). And although both sides of my promo 45 specifies "stereo", both sides are actually mono, as are all of the 45/LP CD versions for this song in the database.

Jim:

That's a drastic time difference. Did you mean 3:28?

No, Jim is correct--the 45 version of the song runs 2:38 as noted in its databse appearances.

DOH! I should've checked the database first!

My apologies, Jim. I really appreciate the timing info you provide and how to recreate the 45 versions from Aaron, Ron and everyone!

Ditto on that, Jim... all your hard work and generosity is extremely appreciated.

My commercial copy also states a time of (3:24) but runs (2:38) and also states stereo, but is really mono.
