Vision Thing - US Version

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

OK... I know this has probably been put up before but I'm at work, can't listen to it and want answers! dammit! :lol:

I just got the US version of Vision Thing in the post and I notice that the US album version appears to have longer versions of the songs?!?!

What's going on?!!?!

I've only ever heard the German CD release, so what are the extended versions like then?

So does no-one know the difference?!?

I can't even play my old copy to compare the two... :(

Indeed they did... bastichs!

Suppose it's a good indication of just how much attention Elektra actually paid to the Sisters innit?

most tracks have a blank second or so at the start and finish, so i doubt there's any difference between the various issues!
Is this the place I used to know as Fatherland?
