For what it's worth, the "Club Edit" from track 2 of the US promo CD single EMI USA DPRO 4445 is a differently EQ'd digital clone of the "7 Inch Version" from track 1 of the Swedish CD single EMI 1363412. The tail of the fade is about 2 beats shorter on the USA disc, but the odds are pretty minimal that you'll find the Swedish CD single in circulation.

(I have owned exactly one Swedish single over the years, and am glad that I finally got to use it for this post!)

I have the promo disc with the "club" mixes and can confirm it features the same version found on track 4 of the UK CD single. And just like you, I found it misleading that they labeled them like that. It would have made much more sense to name the Daniel Abraham "power mixes" that way, those were the ones that got played in the clubs. Labelling is often times best ignored, this is one of those cases where the same version is named differently depending on the country. On the German "Dangerous" CD single, this very same version we are discussing is simply the "7" Version".]]> Mon, 06 Apr 2026 15:57:24 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2683&PID=68021&title=roxette-dangerous#68021 <![CDATA[Roxette - "Dangerous" : I don&#039;t have the US Promo...]]> https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2683&PID=68020&title=roxette-dangerous#68020 Author: MangoMusic

I don't have the US Promo so I can't advise.  The mix featured on the UK CD Single (double a side with the re-released Listen To Your Heart) is the version I would hear Benny Brown playing on the American Countdown here in the UK,  I always found it odd that it was labelled as "US Club Edit" as it doesn't sound like a club mix at all. 

On further investigation it appears the UK CD Single is in fact mislabelled. According to the discography page on The Daily Roxette "The US Club edit is really the Swedish 7″ version".

EsternalStatic, I second your opinion. MangoMusic, how is that "US Club Edit" in the UK CD single different from the one in the US promo? I hear the same version.]]> Mon, 06 Apr 2026 10:38:10 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2683&PID=68019&title=roxette-dangerous#68019 <![CDATA[Roxette - "Dangerous" : I won&#039;t pretend to know all...]]> https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2683&PID=68017&title=roxette-dangerous#68017 Author: EternalStatic

I won't pretend to know all the ins and out of Roxette's worldwide discography -- but the version in the Youtube video is likely to be someone's homemade edit in my opinion. The cold ending and the parts with extra echo, etc., after the first verse seem to come from the 'Extended Club Mix' (aka 'Waste of Vinyl 12" Mix'). Roxette fans are pretty observant (collecting all those random mixes and releases takes attention to detail for sure), and the fact that this alternate version doesn't appear to have been mentioned on Discogs, etc., throughout the years is suspicious to me. Again, just my opinion though!

That's a competely different mix from the "US Club Edit" found on the UK CD Single -

I just found this "US Club Edit" version on YouTube. It appears to be the same as the European 7" version but it has some differences, such as extra backing vocals and a cold ending. Does anyone know where it came from?

Seemed about 50/50 where I was at the time (southern
N.H./Boston market). We played the album version at
first, switched to the club edit later.

Consider that I always heard the acapella version (the 7 inch club edit) here in New York back in 1990 on the stations, so I can confirm. So I concur with Aaron that both probably got airplay. In a year where almost everything is a cd single, I would go with the 7 inch club edit.

I have obtained the cassette single of "Dangerous" and the lead track states "album version" and is indeed the album version as found on the "Look Sharp" album.]]> Thu, 14 Oct 2010 20:12:08 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2683&PID=28094&title=roxette-dangerous#28094
