Which Heartland 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.

Heartland came up on random play on me mp3 the other night, not heard it for years and realised again that I love that song. Question is years ago I had a version on tape that I preferred to the Temple version, all I can say is that it had a few 'beeps' or something before it started I guess it was a demo or session track but what from? Any ideas?

Maybe the audio from the promo video, the beeps being during the countdown clock that precedes it?
(It was common in the 80's & 90's for many music videos to feature a different mix to the single they were promoting, the vocals often mixed louder for example).

Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

well yes, but the video was shelved, seeing as it was quite quite boring. there is a limit to what you can do on a rainy day in Leeds with £250, some speed and a couple of ladies of ill repute

kid jenson - digital version is best; though i do have an original unedited version of the session, which runs at the correct speed
Goths have feelings too

A limit, yes. But I would think that something of use could be created out of those elements and budget?

Yes I am pretty sure it is the Kid Jenson session version I am thinking of thanks for the help. I never think of using Youtube to search for audio only tunes, must get into the habit of doing so.

Ah, that'd be a drawback, yes. Sorry. The mention of beeps made my brain go off at a tangent. :lol:

Kid Jensen version is very trashy and very awesome. I wish they had recorded that version. I do like the one that's got a release, though.
Only the Americans could have built a place like this in the middle of a jungle.
