Song #2 discrepancy
[edit]I was looking for the opening words to "Stop That Train", by the Spanishtonians, which I know to be on this album, because I own the album. However, if you mouse over song #2, which is listed as "Draw Your Brakes", by Scotty, you will see the mouse over alt text gives the correct song name. What's going on here?giggle (talk) 16:47, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
- Track 2 is "Draw Your Brakes" by Scotty, which is a deejay version of "Stop That Train" by Keith & Tex, the song originally a hit for the Spanishtonians. As with a lot of deejay tracks from the era, the original song is there with the deejay toasting over it, so in that sense "Stop That Train" is on the album, but not the Spanishtonians' version. The link goes to the "Stop That Train" article as it covers all versions. --Michig (talk) 17:16, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
Two versions of the title song on the LP?
[edit]I have the vinyl LP issued in the U.S. and it has the title track on the record twice, as mentioned on the track listing here. However, it is there twice because there are 2 versions. The A side version is a basic recording as done in the studio in the movie. The B side version is more lavishly produced, with female backing vocals on the chorus, and more instruments. My impression was the second version was to show how the record got the better production after Ivan became famous, or perhaps when it gets airplay later in the movie.
