I've never heard the New Mix with the long reverb on the radio. Every station I've heard it on plays the LP version with the tight echo.

The New Mix almost sounds like a different take, because the vocals are brought way forward in the mix.

I think the LP version actually sounds "more '80s" because the drums are similar to the gated snare effect that Phil Collins popularized.

I went down a rabbit hole this week thanks to an official YouTube upload. (See the “Sledgehammer” thread.) I suppose it happens more often than we realize that the original audio track gets swapped with something that sounds better, even if the mix doesn’t match the original music video.
