Couldn't find a thread on this song even though it hit #16 in 1989.
Does anyone know the particulars? The song runs 3:56 on the parent album, Break of Hearts, but the only version available digitally is a 3:20 version that sounds like it's an original recording and probably an edit. Was there an LP/45 distinction for this song? Or maybe a UK single version? Video seems to use the LP version. Pretty cool forgotten song. |

As I remember it, the album runs the same as the 45.
Right now, I only have the album. |

Just logged into Napster. The 3:20 version from an album
called The Best Of Katrina And The Waves, I believe, is a newer recording. The version of Walking On Sunshine fades out at 3:40 which is 10 seconds than the 45 version. |

If they are the original recordings, they may just be
faded out really early. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance. |

Forgotten indeed. I gave it a listen and it didn't sound the least bit familiar to me. And I was working at a Top 40 station in 1989! |

Were you watching MTV? That's where it was on rotation at the time. |

Didn't have cable, and even if I did wouldn't have been able to...MTV wasn't offered our cable system. I don't know why. |

It's always interesting to me which hits gets forgotten. I loved this record! It was a bit more rock than "Walking on Sunshine" but just as catchy.
