"Unchain My Heart" - Joe Cocker

Doug, when it comes to what I call my "total stiffs section" (non-
chart/non-bubblers), luck was not on your side with "Unchain My Heart". I
did find two other 1987 Capitol NC 45s by Cocker (including 4 promo
copies of one of them; since re-filed), but that's no help to you. My British
chart book does show "Unchain..." as his first solo charter (#46, 4 wks on)
in his homeland since "The Letter" in 1970 - maybe they should've issued
the shorter UK 45 edit here?   :)

Hopefully someone else here can bail you out, but if not, like you've noted
in your post, all U.S. 45s and the promo 12" state a runtime of (4:11), and
are luckily available on Discogs for just a buck or two + S&H. This might
just be one of those times when you'll have to go that route, assuming
you have a working TT. I'm afraid it might be your only option here. Good
luck, my friend!

I assume we're talking about the version that peaked at UK#17 in July 1992?

I have this song on 3 compilation CDs. EMI UK's 2-CD Now 22 (1992), Disky's European 8-CD Greatest Hits Of The '90s (2004), and the US jukebox-only promo collection Spotlight On Hits Pop Vol. 23 (1994) all include the same 5:02 version.

I'll check the hard drive tonight to see if I have a 4:11 version from someone else's collection.

Chuck is correct. I was discussing the 1987 45.

Doug, you're in luck! Even though I don't have the song
in my active music library, I DO have a 1987 U.S.
Capitol Promo 45 (44072).

Listed time is 4:11, actual is 5:02.

That would be my guess.
