U2 - "Where The Streets Have No Name"

The database lists the version of "Where The Streets Have No Name" appearing on Island 314524612 and 314524613 Best Of 1980-1990 as "45 version faded :09 early." However, according to the discography below, the 1980-1990 version is simply an edit of the LP version while the single is a different mix.

I compared the Austrian CD single (Island Records 664 988) and confirmed the vocals on the single include some reverb, and possibly some extra vocals, compared to the 1980-1990 version. An easy place to spot the difference is around the 4:16 with the line "I go there with you."

The discography notes that the "single mix" appears on all formats, including the US 7" vinyl. Can anyone with the US 7" confirm this mix difference? If so, the database should be updated to show this as a "neither" version on 1980-1990. I would guess a few of the other 45 version appearances may also actually be the LP edit.

I have a CD single of this, although the only clue as to which country it's from is that they spell it as "unauthorised". It's Island CID 340, with a copyright date of 1987, and a cardboard gatefold sleeve.

It's got: Where The Streets Have No Name / Race Against Time / Silver And Gold / Sweetest Thing.

"Where The Streets Have No Name" does run 4:46, and does have the extra background vocals at 4:16.

I confirmed that the version on The Best Of 1980-1990 is the same mix as on The Joshua Tree, and lacks the extra background vocals at 4:16.

My college station at the time got promos of "With Or Without You", "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", and "In God's Country", but not this track. Don't really know what's on that promo 45...

Or, taking it one step further, an "edit of the LP version in an unsuccessful attempt at recreating the 45 version" comment would work here too. So does anyone know if the 45 version of U2's "Where the Streets Have No Name" exists on a full-length CD release, or has it only appeared on CD single?
