Seduction - Two to Make It Right ==> Single version - 4:16. Album version - 4:41. (available on vinyl 45)
The single version is the '7" Remix'. This information comes to you once again courtesy of Edtop40.

Seduction - Heartbeat ==> Album - 7:02. (Whitburn - 4:54) (available on vinyl 45)

Seduction - Could This Be Love ==> Single version - 4:36. Album version - 6:19.
Commercial cassette single copies feature "Radio Edit 1" as the A-side/leadoff track. This is the version I always heard played on radio. The commercial single's B-side "Radio Edit 2" is an edit of the "Quiet Storm Mix" found on Seduction's CD Nothing Matters Without Love (Vendetta/A&M 5280) and has approximately the same run time as Radio Edit 1.

Interesting, I didn't know there was a 4:54 edit of "Heartbeat".

The edit I have on a German "Heartbeat" 7" single runs for 3:28.

Well, the 3:28 version would in truth be a remix, too since it cannot be recreated by editing the 7:03 version on the album.

By the way, the 7:03 "Heartbeat" version on my "Nothing Matters Without Love" CD album is labeled "extended mix", and at that running time it must be.

I also know this version was included on the maxi singles.

Which is then the album version? Was there one at all?

Wow, I never realized a different version of "You're My One and Only (True Love)" was released on commercial single. This means then that the lone CD appearance of this song should contain the comment: (LP version) in the database.

As for which version of "Heartbeat" is considered the album version, I'd go with the one on the Nothing Matters Without Love CD.

I have the vinyl 45 of "Heartbeat" and the "A" side is listed as the "Clivilles/Cole Pop Edit" running (3:29)while the "B" side is listed as the "Clivilles/Cole Radio Mix" running (4:55). Does the cassette single reverse the "A" and "B" sides?

Do you know if any of the above radio edit/mixes is available on CD?

I remember seeing a "Heartbeat" Japanese 3 track 5" CD single with the extended, dub, and a short version which I assume is one of the two Pat mentions.

the "heartbeat" cassingle has as program one "the clivilles/cole radio mix" (4:54) and as program two "the cole/clivilles lp version" (7:01).....no 3:29 version on the cassingle.......all of these notes SHOULD BE listed in the database..........as far as if these official singles versions where ever issued on cd.........yes........i have all 4 official singles versions on cdr..........so yes, these single versions are available on cd somewhere.........either promo cd single or imports.......

I believe all four Seduction songs were issued on promo CD singles. (At least, I know for sure "Two to Make It Right", "Heartbeat", and "Could This Be Love" were. I have a copy of the latter.) These promo singles are fairly hard to find, so you're probably looking at spending at least $20 each when you do find them.

pat, or anybody for that matter, can you confirm that the 45 for "Heartbeat" issued as Vendetta 1473 actually contains a 3:29 version.....i have a commercial 45 issued as vendetta VV-1473 (vv-01473-a). Run-out groove(a&m vv 01473-a-c5-g1) for "the clivilles/cole pop edit".....on the label it states 3:29 but after listening to it, it actually is the "clivilles & cole radio mix" running 4:54....the b side of my 45 states as the version "the clivilles/cole radio mix" vv-1473 (vv-01473-b). Run-out grooves says (a&m vv-01473-b (re1)-c7).....this version sounds like an instrumental with very few vocal and it runs 4:50.....my commercial 45 has NO 3:29 version at all even though it states so on the label.......can anyone confirm my findings......edtop40

My commercial 45 also states a run time of (3:29) but runs (4:54) and has the same matrix number as yours Ed.

I believe I recreated the (3:29) 7" mix from the (7:03) CD mix. The edit is somewhat complex, with a repeated chorus and an inconsistent pitch change, but it appears to match my vinyl mix.

Here how I recreated the edit from the CD:

Pitch the track up 2.58%; from the resulting file, cut as follows:
o Keep from (0:09.4) to (0:18.9)
o Keep from (0:47.3) to (0:56.7)
o Keep from (1:15.7) to (2:45.4)
o Repeat from (1:43.9) to (2:17.2)
o Keep from (3:47.1) to (4:15.4)
o Then, from (4:15.4) to the end, return to the original pitch (i.e. down 2.52%) - probably an editing mistake, as this audibly drops the key.

In the resulting edit, you should have edits at (0:00), (0:09), (0:19), (1:49), (2:22), and (2:50), and you should fade from (3:16) to (3:29).

Since I happen to have my promo CD single for "Two To Make It Right" handy, here are the details:

Seduction-"Two To Make It Right" (CD 17914)
1-7" Remix (listed 4:13; actual 4:12)
2-Original 7" (listed 4:13; actual 4:12)
3-The Cole/Clivilles Club Mix (listed 6:22; actual 6:21)
4-The Hip House Vocal Mix (Lead Vocal: Michelle Visage) (listed 6:19; actual 6:18)

The reason "You're My One and Only" had different releases was because, surprise surprise, Martha Wash originally did the uncredited lead vocals for the original mixes. The song was basically rerecorded by the finalized lineup of Seduction later on.

Really? See I thought that the "Heartbeat" radio version was just the first refrain and chorus repeated a second time. OK I'll send an MP3 to Aaron to comment on. OK, again Aaron, this is what I recreated off my LP, but I REALLY thought that this was how the radio single went.

I agree with you, Jody. The 3:29 version I referenced in an above post (on one version of the commercial US vinyl single) seems to be cut from the album version, with the strange pitch effects I mentioned. Aligning the tracks in a multitrack editor, I could hear the phasing effects suggesting they're the same source. Granted, it's hard to be 100% sure when comparing an old vinyl source to CD but I'm fairly sure it's not a remix.

Jody, sorry I can't be of much help on this one. I'm not familiar with this song, and I don't have any versions of it in my collection. Thanks for jumping in with the additional info, Eric!

Can anyone confirm if the 3:30 version does exist since the vinyl 45 is mislabeled? If it does exist on CD can anyone describe it/send it?

Thanks Aaron! Any chance you can describe the difference between the Pop Edit and the Radio Mix? I have the vinyl 45 which I picked up at a flea market last week. The radio mix is not the radio mix on the CD17937 promo cd. The pop edit is the radio mix on the cd (mislabeled).

I have all the Seduction promos, if anyone wants the full details, including their final single, "Breakdown".

Also, and this has bugged me for years, which version of "(You're My One And Only) True Love" was the hit single version, the one that peaked at No. 23 on the Hot 100?
Was it the original house version which features Martha Wash and Freedom Williams (huge hit on the Club Play chart), or the Summer Of '89 Radio Mix, which is a
completely different song and features Michelle Visage?

Here in Tampa, FL, the hit version was the "Soft
Sell Radio Mix" [A&M Records ‎– CD 17833] (the version
without the "woah-oh" & Michelle Visage on vocals). I
believe the Orlando, FL CHRs preferred that mix as well.
I can't speak for the other areas of the U.S.

I just listened to the club version and I've never heard it before. Because of the Joel Whitburn books, I always assumed that Martha Wash sang on the Summer of '89 Radio Mix! Wow. I'm glad I got that cleared up. :)

They're essentially the same, but the Pop Edit was chopped quite a bit more for Airplay. PM me if you need a copy for preview.

Aaron, I can help you with that. The proper name of the 3:46 is the "The Hot 7" Mix". The only place to get it on CD format is on the German CD Maxi. Track 1 features Michelle
Visage and Freedom Williams. Track 2 features Martha Wash (this was the hit version played on the clubs, at this point Seduction was a just a Clivillés + Cole studio project).
Track 3 features Michelle Visage and Freedom Williams.

Seduction ‎"(You're My One And Only) True Love" Vendetta Records / A&M Records ‎– 390 458-2 / 0 82839 0458-2 7 - Germany CD Maxi Single
1.         (You're My One And Only) True Love [Club Mix]      7:47
2.         (You're My One And Only) True Love [New York House Mix 2]      6:40
3.         (You're My One And Only) True Love [The Hot 7" Mix]      3:47

I purchased a second copy of the "Heartbeat" vinyl 45 by mistake last
week. Turns out this copy does indeed have the 3:29 version on it! So
this means there were two commercial 45's issued on this release.

This thread reminded me how the 3:29 edit has a dramatic
pitch increase -- but only for most of the track, before
the instrumental ending abruptly drops back to the
original pitch. Do we know whether the 4:56 version
runs at the faster pitch or the original album speed? I
seem to recall the 4:56 version being on the cassingle
but haven't heard that since it was new.

I had never noticed the speed difference on the 3:29 edit, great
catch! Just checked the 4:56 version and it definitely runs at the
slower album version speed throughout.

By the way, compared to its album version, the "Two To Make It
Right" 45 version (7" remix) is also sped up noticeably, this one
throughout its entire duration.

As far as "Could This Be Love," is the Radio Edit 1 version the same as the
Radio Mix 1 version?

"Two to make it right" single remix was not included on
this disc: Tune up-Rock 40 #19.

https://www.discogs.com/release/17713930-Various-Tune-Up-
Rock-40-19

And to top it off that disc is a laser rot disc made by
Discovery Systems! One to avoid! Happy diggin!
