Does anyone have a copy of the Jennifer Rush import CD The Power of Jennifer Rush released in 1991 on Sony 69163? According to allmusic.com, the run time of "Flames of Paradise", Rush's Top 40 duet with Elton John, runs 4:02 on this disc. Since the 45 and LP version run 4:36, I'm wondering if this 4:02 version is the DJ edit? Can anyone confirm if it is? I'd greatly appreciate it!

Todd, 4:03 is the running time that iTunes marks, so it must be the single version.

What happened to Ed's old posts about this song? A search isn't finding them.

Thanks for the info, Johann! Now, the database indicates that commercial copies of "Flames of Paradise" run 4:36. So I'm wondering if this 4:02 version is a different 45 version, a DJ edit, or neither?

Yes, Brian, I too could've sworn Ed posted some information about this song but I couldn't find it anything through the website search engine either.

Guys, just to confirm, the "short version" side of my DJ 45 does have a listed time of (3:58), but an actual time of (4:03); Pat already has the longer stock/DJ 45 version time info notated for this one.
