I know the 45 version runs 5:10, but I've seen CD singles online either labeled as a 'radio edit' or the 'Bill & Humberto's Orchestra Mix' that have a listed time of anywhere from 3:40 - 3:45.

Anyone have any info? RPM Top Hits issued the Bill & Humberto's Orchestra Mix.

My promo CD single (Tommy Boy TBCD 7785) has as Track 1 "Coolio's
Album Version" (listed and actual time 5:07) and as Track 2 "Bill &
Humberto's Orchestra Mix" (listed and actual 5:25).

My version on RPM starts with the drumbeat, so they edited off the orchestral beginning.

Perhaps, the 3:40-3:45 listings are edited like I mentioned, then faded early.

Aaron or Todd, what's on your Promo Only CD for this song?

I don't actually have this song in my collection at all.

My Promo Only collection is spotty from the mid-90s, and I don't have that disc. However, their database shows a 4:25 cut.

My copy of the commercial CD single is buried in my parents' basement, but I believe the tracks were similar to the ones on Paul's promo.

Paul, I believe your promo CD single was a 2nd-issued, "remixes" CD. The one we got into the station had a different stock #, and was a more straightforward, 1-track promo:

Coolio-"C U When U Get There" (TBCD 406)
1-(Radio Edit) (listed 3:05, actual 2:56)
