Cutting Crew - (I Just) Died In Your Arms

Hi All,

I am struggling to recall on this one. I noticed the database lists a 45 length & LP length, but no other difference.
I once had the 45 and the CD "Broadcast" but long ago got rid of both. I now only have the UK "Best Of The Cutting Crew". It contains 2 versions of the track. The first version runs 4:38 and fades with the end guitar break. This version seems the same as the version on "Broadcast" LP.
The other, I recall being annoyed when i got it home because it's listed as "Extended Remix" - I had hoped it was the elusive promo 12" single version, but in fact it runs 4:45 and is a remix with added/different reverb and runs a few secs more, to the end of the guitar break, and fades on those synth notes that open the song.

My question is, didn't the 45 have this remix? I'd swear when I heard it on this CD, the mix was nothing new to me.
Perhaps the 45 had the LP mix faded earlier on one side, and this remix on the other?

Anyway, thanks in advance to anyone who has these sources and can refresh my memory on this track.

My dj 45 is just an early fade of the LP and runs (4:26) not (4:23) as stated on the record label. Matrix number is STVR-51287-2 QR-17289-2

Hi again,
well glad to see I'm not crazy (at least about this one thing...)
What started this was I was about to choose which version I was going to rip and for my 80's folder. I chose the "remix" with the synth ending because it was most familiar to me. That led me to check the database to see if I was labeling it "45 version"...
I recalled that was the reason i was annoyed that the UK cd called it "extended remix" and I had said what they called "extended" was merely the U.S. 45 version.
Oh, and besides the different ending, the other most noticable element (under phones) is the lead vocal has stereo reverb echo-ing in the left-right. The LP mix does not.
My thanks to those who are all digging out and checking their singles - and my apologies to Pat if I've now added yet another 45 that had 2 different issues.
But I was really sure about this one....

Did either the dj or stock 45s with the 4:23 fade contain the remix version, i.e. the remix with the stereo reverb on the lead vocal, but faded to 4:23?

Aaron: Both sides of my DJ 45 are (4:23). In the next day or two I was shoot a dub out to you, so you can further investigate with your own ears, and then hopefully get to the bottom of this "mixes" controversy.
