Once again, two different promo 45s: The "main" promo 45 mimics the stock 45, is listed as (3:27) and is close enough at (3:29). Both sides are stereo, deadwax 2-51832CT1 & CT2 (although the mixes are identical) with both stating "edited version." But this time, Album radio was the culprit. There was a buzz on this group and song at the time, but with the LP version taking up an entire album side at 22:39, it made AOR airplay tough, and they wanted to, spawning this 2nd promo 45. It has the stock 45 v on one side, shown as "edited short version." The other side, shown as "edited long version" has (5:46) as both its listed and actual run time. The differences are all at the end; the last 2:18-ish; the first 3:29 of it is the same as the stock 45, deadwax here is 2-51861CT1. This now provided AOR a "middle version" for airplay.
