Yes, in fact.  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%.
