Contours - Do You Love Me (1988 Remix)

Couldn't find a thread for the song, so I'll start one here. I was listening to an American Top 40 countdown from 1988 yesterday on iHeartRadio and the version of
"Do You Love Me" that they played was obviously a remix and had different vocals than the original 1962 version. I've looked on Discogs, and I didn't see any
listings for a US 45 from 1988, so I'm wondering if there was indeed one released and maybe it just hasn't been listed there yet (or maybe I missed it)? All I've
been able to find is a 12" Vinyl Single, apparently no Cassette or Promo CD Singles were issued for it, either. The 12" Single's A-Side has a Remix running 6:26 and
an Edited Version of the Remix running 2:37. The B-Side has the original version and another song, "Shake Sherrie". (I assume what I heard on AT40 was the Edited
Version of the Remix). I liked what I heard on AT40 and was just wondering if anyone knew of the remix existing anywhere on CD. I don't know if it was on the "More
Dirty Dancing" soundtrack, as I never got around to buying it, even though I had the first volume.

Also, did the remix get any airplay at Top 40 radio at the time? I don't remember it having any airplay at all, at least not here in the Philadelphia area. And if
there was no US 45 in 1988 for the song, what would be considered the 1988 Single Version, the longer remix that appears as Track 1 on the A-Side, or the original
version if it had the most airplay? I guess that last question is open for debate, since the version that appears on a single isn't necessarily always the version
that becomes a hit, but then others might say that whatever the first track is would be the "official" single version. Would like to hear any thoughts on this.

Thanks for the link Santi, but nothing comes up when I
click it on. I had a feeling there was a thread about
this song somewhere and it just didn't come up for some
reason.

Thanks for the bump, Paul! So I guess the Motown
Yesteryear 45 was the commercial single in 1988, even
though it had been released years before. Still wondering
if the edited remix was what I heard on AT40 yesterday.

I always thought the 1988 release was just a re-release of the 1962 version. Man this board really educates me sometimes and takes me to school....

I used to pay detailed attention to Billboard's Power Pick Airplays and would
always be interested when chart columnist Michael Ellis would cite statistics on
how good a hit indicator they were. At one point an Airplay Power Pick in the
20s, 30s or 40s would GUARANTEE 100% a future top 5 placement, and
probably a #1. The first 2-1/2 years was fool-proof until "Do You Love Me"
broke the streak (for obvious reasons - no cassette single). From that point I
noticed the Power Pick was less reliable (Glenn Frey, Lisa Stansfield, etc)
