Basically redundant to anyone but someone who likes the song but wants to hear less of it, for whatever reason, or the completist (i.e. Radio mix: The same mix as the 2nd version with altered melody and extra backup vocals, but cuts part of the beginning guitar solo out and possibly more.

The radio edit of this song features a shortened intro, a synth track on the first and second chorus (the album version only has it on the second chorus), a reworked "oh oh" chorus and the added backup vocals of "perfect situation" over the outro. I did some brief research online and couldn't find much.Įdit: Created this thread way too soon. What's the story behind this? I'm sure to a lot of you there is a well known story about the two versions. I definitely prefer the version in the first link. This is the version I've always remembered:įor those that aren't already aware of it (I assume most of your are though), the "Oh's" in the chorus are delivered differently.
