Jake Smarm 18th Aug 2024		CD Single Simon Climie - Soul Inspiration (1992)	Track 2, Life Goes On is a different version to the one on the Shine A Light CD single, even though no mention is made of this fact. Despite the fact the cover say it runs for 4.26 here, this one is 4.35, the other version runs for 4.26.

Jake Smarm 3rd Apr 2024		CD Single PJ And Duncan - Stuck On U (100% Radio Mix) (1995)	Although both sleeve and disc say that track 2 is By Your Side the disc actually plays Stuck On U (Extended Radio Mix).

Jake Smarm 21st Mar 2024		CD Single Ace Of Base - Everytime It Rains (1999)	Even though the sleeve and disc say track 3 is Living In Danger (Single Edit), it actually plays Living In Danger (Old Skool Mix)
Jake Smarm 28th Aug 2023		CD Single Loose Ends - Hangin' On A String (Comtemplating) (12" Extended Dance Mix) (1985)	Track 3 wrongly named on cover but correct on CD label.
Jake Smarm 20th Jul 2023		CD Single Cecil - Red Wine At Dead Time (1997)	This clocks in at approx 4.12, the 7'' single is approx 4.26.
Jake Smarm 25th Apr 2023		CD Single Love And Money - Halleluiah Man (1988)	Unusual spelling of Hallelujah!
Jake Smarm 4th Nov 2021		CD Single The Candyskins - Circles (1996)	I have a promo version of this (same catalogue number) which looks the same except for the CD - scan added
Jake Smarm 19th Apr 2021		CD Single Alice Cooper - Lost In America (1994)	I have added a photo of my insert which incorrectly calls track 4 'More Mr Nice Guy (Live)'. My copy is the picture disc version.
Jake Smarm 21st Apr 2020		CD Single Londonbeat - You Bring On The Sun (7") (1992)	The sleeve for this shows Track 3 as being Dreaming Of You (Sunshine Samba Mix) but the CD has the correct listing as above.
Jake Smarm 30th Oct 2019		CD Single Five - Got The Feelin' (Radio Edit) (1998)	Mine is 03739
Jake Smarm 11th Jul 2019		CD Single Gary Numan - Selection (1989)	Although It is all really Gary Numan, tracks 2 and 3 were first released as Tubeway Army.
Jake Smarm 5th Nov 2018		CD Single Soft Cell - Tainted Love (Original 7") (1991)	This release was available in several different leather pouches - apart from this brown one there was a black one and a cream one, possibly more.
Jake Smarm 14th Jun 2018		CD Single Roachford - Only To Be With You (1994)	on other Roachford releases Cathleen is spelt Kathleen. Not sure why the different spelling on this one.
Jake Smarm 24th Feb 2018		CD Single Various Artists - Novelty Hits (1989)	Apart from that, of course Lonnie Donegan was Scottish so the real title is Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavour.
Jake Smarm 22nd Jul 2017		CD Single East 17 - Stay Another Day (S.A.D. Mix) (1994)	Although stated on the cover and the disc, Track 2 is not Stay Another Day (Quietly Sad Mix). It is in fact a track called You Call It Christmas. This is a proper Christmas song, unlike the title track, which is nothing to do with Christmas at all, despite being on several Christmas compilations.
Jake Smarm 4th Sep 2016		CD Single B*Witched - Rollercoaster (1998)	My CDS of this is bright red not orange - scan added
Jake Smarm 25th Aug 2016		CD Single The Beatles - Real Love (1996)	It does not matter whether the cover was printed in Italy or on Mars. What matters is Was it released as a single in this format in Italy.
Jake Smarm 22nd Aug 2016		CD Single Brandy - Almost Doesn't Count (Pull Club Radio Edit) (1999)	Your wish is my command, oh fruity one. It IS a UK release.

Jake Smarm 4th Aug 2016		CD Single Avalanche!! - Walking In The Air (Arctic Mix) (1992)	The CD and the cover swap the order of tracks 1 and 2. I have listed the tracks from the cover.
Jake Smarm 4th Aug 2016		CD Single Adam Austin - Centrefold (AA Radio Mix) (1999)	The release of this single was obviously delayed as the inner flap has the closing date for the competition blacked out but you can see it was originally December 31st 1998. The single was not released until Feb 1999.
Jake Smarm 4th Aug 2016		CD Single Atlantic Starr - Everybody's Got Summer (Radio Edit) (1994)	Note that the track listing above is from the cover. The actual CD lists track 3 as Everybody's Got Summer (Mo'Bay Groove).
Jake Smarm 19th Jul 2016		CD Single Pet Shop Boys - Discoteca (PSB Extended Mix) (1996)	The sleeve is transparent - SINGLE is printed on the inside flap and shows through the cover.

Jake Smarm 14th Jul 2016		CD Single Aqua - Barbie Girl (Radio Edit) (1997)	My copy of this is different - The CD has BARBIE GIRL printed in white with CD1 printed on it, The cover has CD1 printed on it and the inside flap has different spacing, particularly between the track name and the timings. Scans added.
Jake Smarm 14th Jul 2016		CD Single Aqua - Barbie Girl (Radio Edit) (1997)	Yes, this is not one of the two UK editions of this single - should be moved to Europe.
