The database currently shows the following general comment for Filter's "Take a Picture":
(dj copies of this 45 ran (4:14), (4:22) and (6:01); commercial copies were all (4:22)) I thought it might be useful to include promo CD single track description info for database subscribers: (Reprise PRO-CD-4214) 1) H&H Mix - 4:14 2) Album Edit - 4:22 (Reprise PRO-CD-9980-R) 1) Edit - 4:22 2) Album Version - 6:01 If my research is accurate, commercial CD single copies state "Album Edit". |

During its chart run, I heard my local top 40 stations playing the "H&H Mix," while alternative/rock stations played the "Edit." ------------- Aaron Kannowski http://www.uptownsound.com" rel="nofollow - Uptown Sound http://www.919thepeak.com" rel="nofollow - 91.9 The Peak - Classic Hip Hop |

I had to refresh my memory and listen to the 2 mixes...
it is definitely the "album edit" i recall hearing most in NY at the time. I did hear the H&H mix on a few stations. And for unsolicited triva :-) ... I was amused to hear an interview with the band back then. If you'd like to understand the lyrics better, he wrote it about a flight between gigs in which he popped an Ecstasy and danced around the plane in the nude. Now the lyrics make sense. MM |
