The database states that dj copies of Cradle Of Love run 4:05.
Can this be edited down from the LP and commercial 45 version? |

Yes, and I'll try to post details ASAP. From memory, it's just an early
fade. |

Thanks Aaron. An early fade would make things nice and easy! I will await further information from you.

I managed to solve this one myself. Aaron is correct. It is just an early fade, with the fade starting at approximately 3:53 (just as Billy lets out an "oowwwwwwww").
Nice and easy. |

See the US commercial copies were (4:31), that is some short of the CD's (in range from about 4:36 to 4:40 (except one)). It this an early fade issue also? I have the UK CDsingle (Chrysalis IDOLCD 14) which runs 4:06 (+/-). It is a Edit (+ Extended mix (6.27)), and is probably the same as the US 45 DJ copy.

Anyone know the origin of this extended intro version of
Cradle of Love? I can't find anything on Discogs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYidM0Pd1b0 Per the YouTube poster's comments, they had to re-edit the middle of the song due to missing audio, but this intro was definitely played on WLOL-FM, Minneapolis in 1990 (I've heard it on multiple airchecks).

Weird! I've never heard that version before. The edits on the intro are a little rough if you listen carefully. It also sounds like some sort of crossfade where the drum track fades in.

Listening more closely, I think this shows the signs of an in-house creation. Someone did a nice job recording the synthesizer and base and then crossfading them into the repeating guitar lick that's taken from the end of the song. I couldn't find these elements in either the extended or dub versions of the song, and as far as I know, there aren't any other mixes. Guessing this must have been passed along from station to station. Keeping my fingers crossed that someone on this board may have worked at a station that played it, or at least knows its origins. If you want to hear it in an actual aircheck, listen here at the 1:04 mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_oZIpmELW8&t=44s |
