More (radio edit)

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.

I didn't know that there existed a radio edit of "More". How long is it? I guess it's shortened? I always thought the original version was a bit too long!

It's got a strange little 'wibble' noise that isn't on the 12"/LP mix. Much like the intro to (we are the same) Suzanne...

so is there a difference between the single version (4.37 on mr47 cdx) and the so called radio edit (4.44)?
(only really famous bands dare to offer 'radio' mixes longer than 3.30 .........)

the 3.03 mix was only released in 93 and i guess it never got any airplay -all these 93 mixes lack a lot of power although names indicate the opposite..... . i was quite happy with the idea of doing rockier versions of more and some ideas/addditional lines are fine, but the overall result is a little disappointing - non of the official versions ever reached the power more had in its live-incarnation - i still enjoy remembering the lorely 92 gig featuring more as opner - incredible
love is just a shot away
