djraggy 26th Apr 2023		12" Single ABBA - Dancing Queen (1992)	Not sure. All other releases I've seen featuring that track state running time as 4:33.
djraggy 22nd Nov 2017		12" Single Japan - All Tomorrows Parties (1983)	..and with the 7" version featuring "In Vogue" on the B-side, I bet most Japan fans may have opted to get both 7 and 12" issues to get all the live tracks.

The track is also found on the cassette and CD editions of the "Lament" album, sometimes listed as "Extended Mix".
djraggy 11th Aug 2015		12" Single Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - La Femme Accident (7") (1985)	The version of "Locomotion" on the free 12" single is a live recording, which incidentally, also appears on the 12" edition of "If You Leave" in the UK

djraggy 7th Dec 2014		12" Single The Beatles - Nowhere Man (2012)	There is a 12" picture disc doing the rounds with the same tracks and catalogue number but this one is called "Michelle". According to Discogs, that release is unofficial.
djraggy 12th Sep 2014		12" Single Blancmange - The Day Before You Came (1984)	Nice touch on the live version of "Feel Me" when Neil Arthur introduces the track as "the 12 inch version!"
djraggy 23rd Feb 2014		12" Single Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Talking Loud And Clear (1984)	This one always confused me - On first glance it does look as though the record has four tracks, yet only two are listed. Running times for each side are as follows:- Talking Loud And Clear (8 min 50 sec) Julia's Song (8 min 33 sec)

Completeists should also look out for a second 12" edition which replaces the LP version of "..(And That's No Lie)" with "The Heaven 17 Megamix". mixed by DJ Sanny X. (Virgin VS 740✵13)
djraggy 3rd May 2013		12" Single The Style Council - Come To Milton Keynes (1985)	Look out for a second 12" promo from around this time - with "Our Favourite Shop (Club Mix)" as the A-side, the B-side featuring "With Everything To Lose" and "The Lodgers (Club Mix)" (Polydor TSCCM 1)
