| I've noticed something in the 10th Edition regarding a few of the Shania Twain entries. The hits "You're Still the One", "From This Moment On", and "That Don't Impress Me Much" are all currently listed as (remixed) on the Come On Over International Version CD (Mercury 088170123). While they are indeed remixed, these versions were all released as commercial singles and played on Top 40 radio here in the U.S. Therefore, it would probably be more accurate to list the comment (45 version) next to "You're Still the One", "From This Moment On", and "That Don't Impress Me Much" on the Mercury 088170123 disc. |

I have both the vinyl 45 and the cd single of "From This Moment On" and I can assure you they are not the version that appears on Come On Over - The International Version cd.
I'm still looking for the vinyl 45's of "You're Still The One" and "That Don't Impress Me Much". ------------- Top 40 Music On Compact Disc Moderator |

I have the commercial cassette single for both "You're Still the One" and "That Don't Impress Me Much".
The "You're Still the One" single has the "Radio Edit w/ Intro" and runs 3:32. This is a different mix than the LP version mainly because there are no steel guitars. The "That Don't Impress Me Much" single contains "Remix #1" (a.k.a. - the "dance mix edit") on the A-Side, which runs 3:58 and is a radically different mix than the LP version. This remix was the version played on Top 40 radio, while the LP version (which appears to be the cassette single's B-side, though it's listed as "Remix #2") was played often on Country and Adult Contemporary stations. A commercial vinyl 45 does exist for "You're Still the One" and it has the same track listing and printed run times as the cassette single. I've seen a vinyl 45 for "That Don't Impress Me Much" available as a reissue, but I don't know if a commercial copy was ever released during the song's chart run. |

My commercial CD single contains the same tracks - Remix #1, a "disco" remix running 3:59, and a 3:38 version called Remix #2 as the second track.
SOMEWHERE I have the commercial CD single for "You're Still the One," but I'm not seeing it at the moment. (I have GOT to get my CDs alphabetized again... but they never stay that way very long!) |

| I have the commerical CD single release of "You're Still The One" (Remixes). It contains the "Radio Edit W/Intro" and it's the same mix that Todd posted above (without the twangy guitars). The promo single also contained the "Radio Edit W/O Intro" which didn't have the talking at the beginning. That's the version I used to play on top 40 radio. |

Aaron, regarding "You're Still The One" what is the running time of your promo cd single without the introduction as I suspect that is the version that is on the new "Greatest Hits" cd which runs 3:14 but has the steel guitars. Actually why don't you give me the complete timing information on the promo single so I can enter it in the book. Are the steel guitars on the "no intro" version on your promo single? ------------- Top 40 Music On Compact Disc Moderator |

Pat, unfortunately I don't own the promo single; I just played it a ton when it was popular. I can confirm, with 100% certainty (thanks to CD-R technology), that this version is called the "Radio Edit w/o Talk" and the exact run time is 3:16. I listened to it, and it's much less twangy than the LP version. The steel guitars are definitely missing from the version on the promo single...the short guitar solo is completely different, and there's no "twangy" guitars in the background during the second chorus.
The other version on the single ran 3:32 (but I can't confirm the time for certain) and was the same as the LP version, but without the steel guitars. |

I've come across a website that posts the following track listing and run times for the "You're Still the One" promo CD single:
(Mercury MNCD 196) 1) You're Still The One (Radio Edit) - 3:18 2) You're Still The One (Radio Edit w/ Intro) - 3:34 3) You're Still The One (LP Version) - 3:34 I don't have a copy of this promo CD yet, so I cannot guarantee the accuracy of the above info. source: http://users.ameritech.net/shaniafan/Singles.html |

It appears that the database is missing some info on Shania's hits.
"Whose Bed Have You Boots Been Under" I have a radio compilation disc that labels the song "Edit" and runs 3:59. This is most likely the version on "Greatest Hits." "You're Still The One" I have a radio compilation disc that labels the song "Radio Edit w/o Talk" and runs 3:16. This is most likely the version on "Greatest Hits." Does anyone have the actual promo to verify the proper name of this version? Todd lists it simply as "Radio Edit" in the above post. "From This Moment On" This one is confusing, since there are many, many versions. My station (and most top 40 stations) played the 3:42 version that does not have any trace of Bryan White singing any vocals. My notes say that this is called the "Solo Vocal/Remix," but perhaps some can verify that because... There was another 3:42 version released on promo CD that DOES have Bryan White as a guest vocalist. Does anyone know what this edit is called? (When comparing notes between TM's database, wikipedia, and discogs, none of the information seems to match up in terms of what each version is labeled.) Finally, the US CD single contains the "Pop Radio Mix" that is the same as the "Greatest Hits" CD. It looks like this version runs about 3:55, but I don't have the single to check. "That Don't Impress Me Much" The "Greatest Hits" version is currently labeled as "neither." Is this perhaps the extended version that appears on the US promo CD? I don't have either disc to provide details; I'm only going by track lists I found online. "Man I Feel Like A Woman" The US promo CD lists a version called "Alternate Mix." Could this be the same as the "International Version" CD? I wish I could provide details of the actual discs, but hopefully someone can help us out with that info. |

Sorry to hijack this thread, but is anyone out there erudite enough in the English language to tell me if the song title "Whose Bed Has Your Boots Been Under" is functionally correct?
When the song was a hit I always thought "Who's Bed Has Your Boots Been Under" would have made more sense to me. Feel free to PM me if you can enlighten me! Andy |

"Whose" is correct for the possessive ("who's" is a contraction for "who is" or "who has").
My commercial CD single for "Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under"/"Any Man Of Mine" features the 3:59 version of "Whose Bed" (labeled "Radio Version"), so that may be the same as what's on "Greatest Hits" and Aaron's disc (and would make it the 45 version?). My promo CD for "From This Moment On" (MNCD 213 RE1) is labeled "Solo Vocal/Remix", has a listed time of 3:42 and runs 3:55. It has an add date sticker of 8/24. It does feature some backing vocals by Bryan White. |

A note! Most likely the commercial 45 singles bear the country mix due to many 45 jukeboxes still in use in country music heavy location use. If anyone can contradict this, please give examples of pop mixes being released on 45 singles. ------------- I turn up the good and turn down the bad! |

Thanks for that info! So, here's what I have been able to gather so far: "Solo Vocal/Remix" (listed 3:42; actual 3:55) that has only background vocals by Bryan White. Is this the single version also found on Greatest Hits? 3:42 (actual) version that has shared lead vocals with Bryan White. TM labels this "Single Mix." 3:42 (actual) version that has no vocals by Bryan White. Wikipedia article claims this to be called "The Single Mix," so one of the above two must be incorrect. This is the only version I remember hearing on the radio, but in light of the info by mstgator, I would imagine the 3:55 version also received significant airplay. |

My copy of "From This Moment On" labeled "Solo Vocal/Remix" from Top Hits USA runs 3:42.
I found this on Wikipedia: The original album version of "From This Moment On" included Bryan White as a guest singer. However, for release in Europe and to pop and AC stations in North America the song was rerecorded to have Twain singing all the vocals, and White singing only the backing vocals. This version is called 'The Right Mix', it is included on the International Version of Come on Over released in North America. 'The Single Mix' is a one-take recording of Shania singing "From This Moment On" with no backing vocals. * Original Album Version* (4:43) * Original Album Version Radio Edit* (3:42) * International Version (4:39) * The Right Mix / North American International Version (4:51) * The Right Mix Radio Edit / Greatest Hits Version (3:55) * Dance Mix (6:22) * Tempo Mix (4:03) * The Single Mix (3:42) * Live from Dallas (4:15) * Live from Up! Close and Personal (4:07) *With Bryan White. [edit] Track listings |

John, I'm wondering if there might have been two promo CDs, both labeled "Solo Vocal/Remix." Mstgator's promo has an RE1 in the catalog number, so it's possible.
I just did a YouTube search and saw the music video for the first time. It's also the first time I've ever heard that 3:55 remix, which has added instrumentation when compared to the album mix. The 3:42 "solo vocal" version I have uses the same background track as the LP mix. I certainly don't ever recall hearing this "45 version" on the air in my area. |
Posted By: mstgator
Date Posted: 07 July 2010 at 5:21pm
| Well... I should note that iTunes (or wherever it pulls track info from, Gracenotes?) tags the song on my promo as "The Right Mix", which would match the 3:55 version John listed. So it appears Mercury neglected to change the version name and listed time when they issued the RE1 promo. |

| Oops! Aaron, when I was re-filing my other promo, I'd previously overlooked that just below it WAS another promo after all. I'd stored it in an un-labelled jewel case (always a bad idea!) It contains one track, is an officially-issued-by-Mercury, non-numbered CD-R, and has a paper Mercury label affixed to it. This version is titled the "Up-Tempo Mutt Lange Remix", has a listed time of (4:03), an actual time of (4:00), and stops/truncates the ending a bit before the audio had fully faded. Aaron, I will forward you a dub of this version ASAP, for your further analysis. |

| Great info, Jim! Thanks for checking. There must still be a promo source for the 3:42 solo vocal without Bryan White and the added instrumentation. Perhaps it was included on the promo sent to country radio. |
Posted By: aaronk
Date Posted: 09 July 2010 at 12:25pm
| I heard Jim's copy of the uptempo remix, and I was also serviced this mix on a different Promo Only Mainstream Radio issue. Although I don't recall hearing this on CHR, I'm sure it got played in clubs or during mix shows. |

I just obtained what appears to be the elusive promo CD for "From This Moment On." It has catalog number MNCD 213, but it does not have the "RE1" on the end. It has the same track repeating three times and is labeled "Solo Vocal/Remix." Printed run time is 3:42; actual time is 3:43. This version has no trace of Bryan White anywhere in the song, and it matches the version issued by Promo Only. ------------- Aaron Kannowski http://www.uptownsound.com" rel="nofollow - Uptown Sound http://www.919thepeak.com" rel="nofollow - 91.9 The Peak - Classic Hip Hop |

Talk about confusing, just spent the last 45 minutes sorting through each version. Wouldn't it simplify the matter if their was an 'international standard' for naming the version of each cut?
From This Moment On, 3:42: actual, this is the version with Shania's vocal ONLY. This cut has been referred to on label as: Solo Vocal/Remix, The Single Mix This is the version I call the 45, and was added to WWLI. I own the Australian Import Single because I couldn't find it on a commerical US copy. Actual; 3:42, with :03 intro & Shania's vocal only. Labeled 'The Single Mix' on my import. The 3:55; actual, with Bryan White on backup has been referred to on label as: Solo Vocal/Remix, Pop Radio Mix, The Right Mix Radio Edit The version listed on both US Promo CD's is 'Solo Vocal/Remix', but one uses the 3:42 version and the other uses the 3:55. Someone at Mercury wasn't on the ball! Thanks for restoring my sanity. ------------- DJ L. |

Thanks for summing that up, David. I have also seen a US promo CD with the "RE1" where the disc itself is labeled as "The Right Version." Mstgator, does your copy happen to have "Solo Vocal/Remix" printed on the disc, too, or is it only on the cardboard case that way? ------------- Aaron Kannowski http://www.uptownsound.com" rel="nofollow - Uptown Sound http://www.919thepeak.com" rel="nofollow - 91.9 The Peak - Classic Hip Hop |

Aaron, I guess I should've looked at the actual disc when I posted my
findings last year (you can see why I usually just lurk and leave the posting to the experts, lol). My copy matches the promo CD that you just mentioned. The cardboard case shows "Solo Vocal/Remix" (and has no "RE1"), but the disc itself has the "RE1" following the catalog number, is labeled "The Right Version", and has a listed time of 4:01. |

I finally picked up the promo for MNCD 207.
MNCD 207 [Guest Vocal: Bryan White] 1. Single Mix (listed 3:45; actual 3:42) 2. LP Version (listed & actual 4:42) My assumption is that this promo CD was intended for country radio. I do not recall hearing any pop stations playing the "duet" mix with Bryan White in my area, but I'm sure country stations did. Mentioned earlier in the thread are also MNCD 213 and MNCD 213 RE1, which have the "Solo/Vocal Remix" (no Bryan White at all) and "The Right Version" (Bryan on background vocals), respectively. There are two other dance mix promo CDs that I do not have. ------------- Aaron Kannowski http://www.uptownsound.com" rel="nofollow - Uptown Sound http://www.919thepeak.com" rel="nofollow - 91.9 The Peak - Classic Hip Hop |

The 25th anniversary deluxe Diamond Edition of Shania
Twain's "The Woman in Me" album features an "Alternate Mix - Without Steel Guitar" version of "Any Man of Mine". This version has been on YouTube for a number of years, and I read that this alternate mix was also used in place of the album version on some versions of the promo video. Does anyone know if a promo CD for this alternate mix was issued at the time of its release (1995)? Perhaps to pop radio? ------------- Jason Bellenger Byron Center, Michigan, USA |

Really? Never heard that mix. As far as I can hear, this "Alternate Mix" is the same version as the album version, except that it is missing the steel guitar and runs about 7 seconds longer (the album version blends in to the next track). And, Aaron, thanks for the info. When browsing discogs, I did not come across any foreign CD singles that specified it being the version without the steel guitar, so perhaps it is not credited as such. ------------- Jason Bellenger Byron Center, Michigan, USA |

There's a lot of good info. in this thread, but I have found myself going down a rabbit hole today with "You're Still the One". I have come across the following well-intentioned but possibly inaccurate blanket statement
in a user comment on Discogs: "there is a radio edit of the 1997 country version and a radio edit of the 1998 pop version. The edited parts are exactly the same on both radio edits." I was paying a lot of attention to this album and its singles when they were current, and I do not recall there being a "radio edit" or single edit of the original country album mix (the version that contains audible steel guitar). I was interning at a country radio station when this single dropped, and my memory is that we were serviced the common 3-track promo that has been noted in this thread, which featured the "Radio Edit" (=edit of pop mix), Radio Edit w/Intro (=full pop mix, later known as the International album version), and the original 1997 LP Version (=country mix). My assumption has always been that if a country station wanted the steel guitar mix programmed, their only option would be the full-length country mix (unless, of course, they wanted to snip it themselves, which I'm sure many did). So, based on my own prejudice, I suppose, I find myself doubting the existence of an official edit of the original country mix. Has anyone here ever confirmed the existence of such a version? (I used to have several singles from this album and am looking to re-collect a few, as they were part of a good box of CD's that got lost (stolen?) during a move several years ago! So just trying to limit my search to things that actually, likely exist.) |

Regarding "You're Still The One," I've had MNCD 198 on my want list for a quite awhile, but I haven't been able to find a copy yet. I do, however, have MNCD 196:
1. Radio Edit (listed 3:18; actual 3:16) 2. Radio Edit w/Intro (listed 3:34; actual 3:33) 3. LP Version (listed 3:34; actual 3:36) Eric, I think it's likely you're correct that there is not a "country" radio edit, as I've never heard one either, but if it does exist, it must be on MNCD 198. The first two tracks on MNCD 196 are the mix without the steel guitar. Track 3 (LP Version) does have the steel guitar and has a total different (steel guitar) solo starting at 2:36. ------------- Aaron Kannowski http://www.uptownsound.com" rel="nofollow - Uptown Sound http://www.919thepeak.com" rel="nofollow - 91.9 The Peak - Classic Hip Hop |

So, the plot thickens... I just checked the streaming version of Greatest Hits on Apple Music, and it too plays an edit of the original "country" version. (I used to have a download of the GH album, but I think it must
have been the import version, because it definitely contained the "pop" mix.) If I think about this long enough, it could change my mind about whether an edit of the LP version existed in 1997. One circumstantial reason being that, in context, it doesn't seem that any of the other previously released songs on the GH album are newly created edits. I agree with you that if there is an official "country" radio edit, it is likely on the HTF MNCD 198. Its relative scarcity compared to MNCD 196 would make sense if it it was only sent to country stations. I would like to believe that the fact that there are only two cuts on the disc would indicate that the Track 1 "Radio Edit" is an edit of Track 2 ("LP Version"). But in the maddening tradition of the '90s, the record label apparently referred to the pop remix as the "Radio Edit" on singles all over the world, and that has me in doubt about it. We can say for sure that there has been a "country" edit in existence since the 2004 GH album, which is almost 20 years now (!), so you'd think that would be enough for me, LOL! |

Yeah, it would be nice to find an actual copy of MNCD 198 to know for sure. If both country and top 40 stations received copies of MNCD 196, it makes me wonder why they would bother putting out MNCD 198, only to delete one track. ------------- Aaron Kannowski http://www.uptownsound.com" rel="nofollow - Uptown Sound http://www.919thepeak.com" rel="nofollow - 91.9 The Peak - Classic Hip Hop |

A Discogs user was kind enough to send me a rip of MNCD 198, and it does indeed include the "country" radio edit that is also found on Shania's Greatest Hits CD. That means Pat will need to remove the "neither" comment and replace it with "dj edit" (or something similar).
MNCD 198 1. Radio Edit (listed 3:18; actual 3:17) 2. LP Version (listed 3:34; actual 3:35) Again, this Radio Edit is a different mix from the one found on MNCD 196. ------------- Aaron Kannowski http://www.uptownsound.com" rel="nofollow - Uptown Sound http://www.919thepeak.com" rel="nofollow - 91.9 The Peak - Classic Hip Hop |

The "neither LP nor 45" Greatest Hits version of "That Don't Impress Me Much" is a longer version of "International Remix #1". Both fade at the end, but the Greatest Hits version plays longer before fading out.
The Promo Only Mainstream Radio series of discs released the Greatest Hits version on their February 1999 disc. Top Hits U.S.A. released International Remix #1 on T473 (February 26th, 1999), and previously the original Country version (which starts with a cowbell and steel guitar, and ends cold) on T461 (December 4th, 1998). |

The version on Greatest Hits is technically an early fade of the Extended International Remix #3 on the promo CD single. The full length of this version is 4:39, and it has a very long, drawn out fade starting around 4:06. It's the same mix as International Remix #1 but with a longer ending/fade. ------------- Aaron Kannowski http://www.uptownsound.com" rel="nofollow - Uptown Sound http://www.919thepeak.com" rel="nofollow - 91.9 The Peak - Classic Hip Hop |

Returning to "That Don't Impress Me Much": it is noted way upthread that the "International Remix #2" from the U.S. pop promo single (and commercial U.S. CD and cassette singles) is the same as the country album version.
To clarify, "Remix #2" is actually an alternate remix first used on early international pressings of the Come on Over album. It is very similar to the country album/country hit version, but there are mix differences, such as the addition of a synth(?) saxophone on top of the steel guitar in the intro. In my understanding, the version history for this one goes something like this: • Country album version, also country radio hit version (available on all pressings of the original "country" version of the album) • "International Remix #2", aka first pop remix, aka first international album version, also serviced to pop & AC radio (on early international pressings of the album) • "International Remix #1" aka second pop remix, aka pop album version, hit version (on later international pressings and U.S. "International Version" of the album from 1999) (*and "International Remix #3", which is correctly noted above as being a longer fade of the hit "Remix #1", does appear on some interim international pressings of the CD from 1998, probably dating from a timeframe between when the dance mix was created and when it was released as a single.) |
