My promo CD of "Rich Girl" contains two mixes: Radio Edit #1 (4:06) and Radio Edit #2 (3:46). These are both different lengths than the album version and are not currently noted in the database.

aaron,

does the promo cd single actually run the stated times on
the insert? what makes the radio edit 0:10 LONGER than the
cd album version..

I'm trying to find out for sure, but it APPEARS that the stand-alone digital single for "Rich Girl" may indeed have been Radio Edit #1 that runs longer than the album version.

Because I see one review of the import CD single on Amazon from 2005 that says, "The radio mix is available on a separate version of the single and also on iTunes -- it's longer than the album version and is just plain better."

If that's so, then the "45 version" of the song is longer than the album version.

My copy, from TM Studios, is Radio Edit #1 and runs
4:06.

john was kind enough to send me the version from his TM
studios promo cd and it is clearly a different mix.....the
lp/cd version doesn't have eve doing the rap...in addition
there is heavy piano or organ beats all through the intro
of the 'radio edit' NOT found on the lp/cd version......pat
this info need to be added to the db...

I own the Australian CD single for this song. Track 1 is the album version of "Rich Girl", clocking in at 3:58 (including silence). The other two tracks are live songs. The music video, which uses a slight edit of the U.S. Radio Edit #1 (also known as the Get Rich Mix) is also included as a low-res QuickTime video.

Nothing of real interest, but it proves that the "hit version" varied from country-to-country, as the U.S. promo edits weren't released commercially here in Oz.
