Prince is definitely not the one off of vinyl today.

Nope. But is this a somewhat longer than usual version? Second day in a row we've led off with an extended version of an otherwise oft-heard tune.
Let's get right to it.

This song was pretty much everywhere for a few months in 84. AKA Der Kommisar lite.

sounded like the LP version to me; the 45 was shorter, iirc.  But if it's a remix, maybe it IS vinyl.

hey, that was my 4,999th post, so this one should be #5,000!  Woo Hoo for me! ( :wink: )  I wonder how many hours of typing that equates to.

No way, Wire Train was the Vinyl.  I'd bet my pants.

just for the record (pun intended) Wire & Wire Train are two different bands.  Kind of like Steely Dan & Steeleye Span.
