So it is real.

I'm surprised in this day and age that the record labels don't just provide a download link for stations to grab the latest tracks released...

The stations who receive these cds probably just rip them anyway and program them into their automated rotation schedule and do away with the hard copy.

Did anyone else notice that the single promo cd features the "album version" with a running time of 3:15, which does not support another poster's assertion that the album version would be approximately a minute longer. I was really hoping for a dynamic ending with a stronger, more forceful vocal to ramp things up a little. Oh well...

They must have edited it down after FM77 heard it.

Who knows it could be a misprint too, I have many promo CD Singles that have the running time that is different then what is printed. I don't have this single so I don't know but just saying that it's a possibility.

This would be cool to have.

I'm in agreement. I buy a lot of stuff off of iTunes, but certain artists I buy only on CD. The convenience of iTunes is hard to resist.

I'll get a copy of the Secret Love CD in a couple months when the price has come down.

WOW! The auction ended a few hours ago and it sold for $49.88!!! That is nuts! I guess some people just have the money to blow.

I myself will wait for when a bunch of them show up on Gemm.com in a few months for $5.99

If it had a couple of new bonus songs on it I could see paying that much.

The CD single was also sent out to select media.

eBay auctions for promotional CDs go for big money, particularly discs intended for club DJs. Search under "promo CD remix" and sort by highest price first and you will be stunned.

I just grabbed a copy of the "Secret Love" promo CD on Gemm.com for $8.00!!! Score! There are 2 more copies listed. Hurry!

I must have missed this coming out. Used to get the promo cds, but yes, unless there's other tracks on it I don't have an interest anymore. I think a lot of collecting in general has gone by the wayside in the past 10 years or so (says the comic book fan).

On another note...holy crap this is a gorgeous song.

I just got my copy in the mail today. My question is this - who was it who told us that "Secret Love" was a minute longer on the album? Was it FM77 or was it another person (can't remember their name but someone said they heard the song on their friend's laptop)? I also can't remember which thread it was in either, but I specifically remember someone saying it was a minute longer on the album.

I ask because on the promo CD I got, it says "Secret Love" ALBUM VERSION (3:15)

I call bulls**t on whoever said it was longer on the album.

BombaySapphire3 was commenting on what they said they heard in a streaming version of the song RockALittle250 had posted a link to. The link was taken down shortly after, and I don't believe anyone else claimed to have heard the longer version. Even if there isn't a longer version on the album, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist or was fabricated. Remember sometimes we come across alternate versions of songs years after the originals were released.

Does anyone know if Secret Love as been released to UK radio stations? Haven't heard it!!

Based on how the songs starts and ends I have a feeling that each song on the album just blends into the next one. The result is almost one long song. Sort of like the second side of "Abbey Road".
