Some radio stations speed things up by about 2%, just to keep things booking along. It's also rather strange because some singles when they are created, are just the album version with a few cuts and 2% faster. Which means if a station speeds it up again, isn't that 4% faster? Sometimes it's not that obvious that it's speeded up. The best way to tell is to listen to both versions back-to-back. I noticed a few days ago that as well as the garbage that they threw into Duran Duran's latest single "The Reflex", they also speeded up the vocals about 2%. -- Peter Merchant
