OT: Bangles - Hero Takes A Fall

   There was some discussion about this non-charting, but 

classic track within the "Be With You" thread.  There 

was some confusion about which version was the single 

mix versus the album mix.  I can confirm that 

Greatest Hits has the single mix, while New 

Wave Hits of the '80s Volume 13 has the LP mix 

originally found on the All Over The Place 

album.  The original album version is much more raw 

sounding while the remix has much wetter drums, 

effected vocals and some additional keyboard or guitar 

to give it more of a Top 40 sheen.  One easy way to 

tell which version is which is by listening at the 

0:26 mark after the "judgement day" lyric.  The album 

mix has a very loud guitar chord in the left channel. 

The single mix has this chord turned way down and adds 

additional guitar or keyboard in the right channel.
