The database should note that the version of "People Everyday" by Arrested Development on the Sounds Of The '90s - 1992 is not the "hit single" version. If I remember correctly, there were 2 versions of "People Everyday" on the album "3 Years, 5 Months & 2 Days In The Life Of." The "hit version" was a "hidden track" at the end of the album, while the album version (a completely different version and the one featured on Sounds of the 90s) was listed.

There are also multiple versions of the hit remix. My promo CD single has the "Metamorphosis Radio Edit," "Metamorphosis Radio Version," and "Metamorphosis Mix." The "Mix" is unedited and is probably what was included as the "hidden track." The "Radio Edit" and "Radio Version" are different edits and are clean.
The one that received most airplay was the "Radio Version," which ironically is track 2 on the promo CD. This version contains the African singing (I think that's what it is) toward the end, whereas the "Radio Edit" does not. I believe the video also uses the "Radio Version."
As a side note, my cassette copy of 3 Years... does not contain the hidden track, so I was disappointed to learn that I didn't have the hit mix when I first bought the album. I cannot say for sure if all cassettes were without the bonus remix or if it's just all early pressings of the album that didn't have the hit version.

stranger still, is that the video version is the "Metamorphosis Radio Edit".....which, in my opinion, was a much better track than the version from the full length cd.....i never, ever heard the lp version on the radio back in the day......does anyone remember which version got most airplay??

My cd of "3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of" contains 15 tracks (none hidden) Chrysalis 21929 matrix number 1-1-2 CAPITOL JAX 2 C and only 1 version of People Everyday. How does one distinguish between this version and the hidden track version of this cd?

Pat,
I can pull my CD and give you a better description of the number of tracks on my copy (to see if it matches your 15 tracks)?
However, the album version (which is the one on the "Sounds of the 90s" CD) is a completely different version and doesn't even resmble that of the one that was played on the radio.

I have now obtained the cassette single of "People Everyday" and I find that cassette single version is the version found on my copy of "3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days" (track 3) and on Sounds Of The '90s. The cassette single has this version as the lead track and the "metamorphosis mix" is the 2nd track of the cassette single. So I am puzzled by some posts claiming that these versions I mentioned above are not the hit version. This "metamorphosis mix" is not the lead track on the cassette single.

Pat:
Like many other posters in this thread, I too only heard the "Metamorphosis Mix" on the radio back when the song was a hit. (I was living in the Seattle/Tacoma area at the time.) I've never heard the version appearing on track 3 of the 3 Years, 5 Months and 2 Days version get any radio airplay.

Probably a good reason that you never heard the LP version on the air (aside from being an inferior version) is that there is no clean version of it. The LP version contains the "n" word throughout.

That's right, Brian! I attended and graduated from Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, WA from '92-'95.

Aaron (or to anyone else whom this might apply):
Whenever you have an opportunity, could you please post the complete track listing content and run time info for any Arrested Development "People Everyday" promo CD singles you may have?
Thanks!

My promo CD is DPRO-05466 with the following tracks and times:
1. Metamorphosis Radio Edit (printed 3:58; actual 4:05)
2. Metamorphosis Radio Version (printed 3:52; actual 4:02)
3. Metamorphosis Mix (printed 4:52; actual 4:55)
4. Album Version (printed 3:26; actual 3:28)
5. Metamorphosis Instrumental (printed 3:58; actual 4:55)
As you can see, the printed times are way off!

Can anyone who has a copy of the full-length CD with the "Metamorphosis Mix" as a bonus track supply the info? We never really got to the bottom of that one, but I know for certain that some pressings have the non-listed track.

I finally came up with a copy of 3 Years, 5 months and 2 Days that has the bonus track as track 16 which runs (4:55) and is the "metamorphosis mix".

Revisiting this topic, the DB indicates (DJ copies) run 4:55 with a printed time of 4:52, (Cassette single copies) run 4:52. But the 2 cds that contain that version both run 4:55 so I ask what 3 seconds need excised from those versions to created the cassette single (a quick fadeout perhaps?).
