my commercial 45 of the mike + the mechanics song "taken in" issued as atlantic 89404 states a run time of 3:55 and does indeed run that length and is just an early fade of the 4:16 full length cd/lp version...this 45 run time s/b noted in the db....aaron, thanks for the fade you did for me years ago...THANKS...

Does anyone know when the fade begins on Taken In on the Album
version so I can simulate the 45?

After confirming with my old promo 45 and using the "Taken In" track off the Mike + The Mechanics album, the song begins to fade at 3:44.05 (at the beginning of the line "When you say you understand...") and is completely over by 3:55.25 (at the instrumentation after the end of the line "when you reach out for my hand...") If you do it correctly, the word "hand" should be the last word you hear before the song goes completely inaudible during the instrumentation at the end of the fade at 3:55.25 (if that makes any sense.) Hope this helps!

Edit: I found this YouTube video here you can use as a reference:
