Amy Grant - "Baby Baby"

Was this another Amy Grant hit where airplay was somewhat split between the 7" Heart In Motion Mix and the LP Version? I watched a fair amount of MTV during this time, and I don't ever recall seeing anything but the regular LP version video. There are people on YouTube who claim that a video for the remix was also aired.

I have a note that jimct's station KC101 aired "Cut 1" of the promo CD, which is the LP version. Also, as I mentioned earlier, I only heard the LP version on my local top 40 station.

Here are the promo CD contents:

75021 7512 2
1. LP Version (listed & actual 3:56)
2. 7" No Getting Over You Mix (listed & actual 4:01)
3. 7" Heart In Motion Mix (listed & actual 3:50)
4. 12" No Getting Over You Mix (listed & actual 5:57)
5. 12" Heart In Motion Mix (listed & actual 6:02)

Have a folder with 11 different listings of Baby, Baby.
But think 4 are the same version just added to folder I
received to cover every version released!
A mike Cruz mix, an original extended mix, the heart in
motion mixes no getting over you club mix, and a few
others. The Cruz and No getting mixes am unfamiliar
with. But will let all know what they are like.
Did not realize late in Amy's Top 40 phase so many
versions of her songs existed!

Only the LP version received, and still receives, airplay
in my area.

All I hear the top 40 in Tulsa play was the Heat In Motion 7" mix, and like I said 6 years ago, Rick Dees played the remix on his national countdown.

The local Christian AC played the LP version of course.

I can't speak for other markers.

I remember reading an article in Billboard at the time that stores were furious with A&M because all of the returns they got on Amy Grant's "Heart in Motion" CD because the version that was on the album was nothing like what consumers had heard on the radio. (I also recall reading an interview with Amy Grant where she said she laughed the first time she heard the remix.)

Amy Grant laughed because that remix is beyond bad, it is awful. It basically kills the nice vibe of the LP version. Long live the LP version! I go on record saying all I ever heard was the LP version. Talk about hearing this great song (the LP version)* and listening to this weird version that sounds like a bad techno trip!

*If you didn't figure out I like the LP version, you might have missed something :)
