The actual commercial 45 run time of Kenny Loggins' "Danger Zone" is 3:33. (Timing info courtesy of abagon. The printed record label time is 3:35.) The only reason I post this is because database CD appearances of this song run 3:30-3:35.

Friends, I want to ask if you could realize that the
version that was edited for the film has other
arrangements, in addition to the editions, does anyone know
if this film version was edited in 45, cd or some
compilation?

Other than the song being edited for the film's pacing and the overall mix being a weird downmix of a modern surround remix
(assumingly made for a recent bluray or dvd issue), what are the differences that are sticking out to you?

Thanks for responding Jared.
Regarding your question, the version that appears in the
opening of the film is edited, but I mean that I hear the
synths louder (2:54 of the video) and in some parts Kenny
Loggins's voice is heard differently, like if it were
another mix.

I want to make it clear that I am referring to the
version that was released in the 1986 movie, not the
"maverick" movie.

Well the mix specifically done for the movie would be
different, for sure (for both the original Top Gun or
Maverick). Generally, when a song is made specifically for
a "blockbuster" film, the mix will tend to be different in
said movie vs. the album/single release.
