Doug,
In another thread you mentioned you have information on the promo cd single for this song which there is currently no mention of in the database so could you pass along all the specifics such as various versions and lengths that appear on the promo cd single?

The only promo I'm aware of is a version that runs roughly (4:10), and is commercially available on Top Sail 71904 (Casey Kasem Presents: America's Top Ten - The 90's Rock's Greatest Hits). It came up when we were discussing the edit of Natalie Merchant's "Carnival," which is also available on that CD (as is the (4:12) radio version of Shawn Mullins' "Lullaby"). I don't actually have the promo or commercial CD single of "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover," but if anyone who does wants to chime in with specifics, by all means please do.
That CD may have some other radio versions on it as well (I'm not totally sure--my 90s music knowledge is not as strong as my knowledge of earlier decades), so it might be worth picking up to include it in the database.

I have the actual promo CD single and it contains:
1. Edited Version (4:13) (Time listed as 4:08)
2. Album Version (5:21) (Time listed is correct)
Does anyone have the cassette single -- to determine whether this edit is a "dj only edit" or the 45 edit?
The edited version is truly and edit and not an early fade.

I have the cd mentioned above, that is the Casey Kasem cd and have already updated the database with the contents. To see all the songs on this cd and my comments, just click on "latest entries", then scroll down to any song that I have entered on that cd and click on the cd title "Casey Kasem....". I will also be adding this and 2 other cd's from the same company on the review board shortly. They are top quality cd's with some new 45 versions that have never appeared on cd to date.

A while back when I started the "DJ edits still at large" thread elsewhere on this message board, I had wondered if a shortened edit of "Damn! I Wish I Was Your Lover" existed because I couldn't remember whether or not Top 40 radio played the full 5:21 version. Thanks to EdisonLite, we now know DJ CD single copies contained a short edit and I'm glad to hear it's recently been made available on a domestic CD.

I have the Edited Version on:- Top Hits USA RH13 (denoted as "edit"; sound is not the greatest)
- Hot Hits - Pop - Vol. 13 (runs 4:14, sound quite good)
- Now That's What I Call Music 23 (UK, runs 4:13; slightly different EQ than Hot Hits; sound also quite good)
I have the album version on:- Cosmopolitan Vol. 7 (runs 5:22; mastered by Steve Hoffman and sounds excellent)
- 2 Awesome (PolyTel Canada, 1993)
I don't have the full Sophie B. Hawkins CD, but I can give you instructions to create the edit, using the timings from Cosmopolitan Vol. 7:
Remove the faint intro from 0:00.0-0:09.8.
Keep the 16 beats from 0:09.8-0:19.9.
Edit on true downbeat.
Remove the 16 beats 0:19.9-0:30.0.
Keep 0:30.0-3:52.7.
Edit on snare following the word "warm" after the soft passage.
Remove the 32 beats from 3:52.7-4:12.9.
Keep the 63 beats from 4:12.9-4:52.7; passage should start with snare on the word "damn" and should end with a true downbeat.
Put a 32-beat fade from 4:32.5-4:52.7.
Your mixdown should run 4:12, with edits at 0:10 and 3:33, and a 32-beat fade from 3:52 to 4:12.
From what I remember, I only heard the edit on the radio, probably because the low-level 10-second intro wouldn't sound right on the air.

For what it's worth, I remember hearing both versions (edit and album) on the radio back then.
