According to Ed, his cassette single copy of Jimmy Cliff's "I Can See Clearly Now" has an actual run time of 3:14. I only bring this up because database CD entries containing the hit recording of this song run from 3:08-3:14.

This song was not issued on a 7-inch single while it was a hit, but a 7-inch single was issued a few years later on the Collectables label.
