I thought I'd report that the actual commercial 45 run time of Elton John's "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" is 3:41. (I timed this using Jim's 45 dub. The printed record label time is 3:43.) The reason I post this info is because all CD appearances run slightly longer, so I'm wondering if perhaps the LP length runs at least :03 longer than the 45 which would warrant a database notation. That said, does anyone have John's Blue Moves 1976 vinyl LP on MCA who can report the run time of "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" on it? (On the original and remastered CD pressings of Blue Moves, the song runs 3:44 and 3:47, respectively.)

Todd, the track on my vinyl LP also has a listed time of 3:43, but it runs 3:45.

with the song actually coming to an end, and fading out on the last note, is it that the 45 fades that note earlier, or is it a different speed?

Thank you, Yah Shure! So we officially have the 45 length at 3:41 and the LP length at 3:45. This info should probably be added to the database.

David, the last note of the song is faded out several seconds earlier on the 45.
