Album notes

Discogs page for these notes (opens in a new tab)

The album was released in the US and Canada 3 months after the UK/Europe 'original' version, with many tracks in 'refined' versions (some released on singles in Europe) and track order changed. Main differences:
– You Can’t Deny It: Faster, slightly remixed. The US single version contains even more additional production.
– What Did I Do To You: Unedited 'Saunders Mix', released on 10" in Europe (CD single has an edit).
– Affection: Fades out 7 seconds later.
– Live Together: The 'New Version' released on single in Europe (actually a re-edit with additional strings, not a different recording).
– The Love In Me: With fuller, somewhat 'latin' sound. A shorter version of the 'Extended Version', unreleased until 2014.
