   Does anyone know the best sounding dj 45 version of this song? I have it on 
 the Madacy's Rock On 1984 CD and the sound quality is pretty bad. | |

   You're right about the Rock On copy sounding bad.  The high frequencies are rolled off on "Hold Me Now."
 I have the promo 45 length on Silver Eagle's After Hours where it sounds fine, although the volume is a little lower than other discs. It runs 4:14 on this disc. I also have it on Razor & Tie's Back To The '80s, where it runs 4:15. The volume levels are more normal on this CD, but it's likely very hard to find. The other discs I have it on run a few seconds shorter, between 4:10 and 4:12. In my digital library, I used Rhino's Billboard Top Hits 1984 and made the early fade myself. | |

   Listening to it right now in one of our local stations and the song doesn't 
 sound that good either. | |

   bumping this one back up.  Can someone provide the exact 
 fade point from start to finish to recreate the promo 7" Edit? From what I understand it times out to about 4:15 and not 3:58 per the label. | |
