Comments:

As usual with the US singles, the purchase of this one makes the other one obsolete. So, what's new about this single then? Well, track 4 is a disco-ish remix with some added samples and such; I'm not too fond of it. As you might suspect, the bassline is re-made and rather focused on.

'Memphisto' is another piano ballad, not unlike 'Sibeling' or Stjärna. It also reminds me a little of Agent Orange, but it's more orchestral towards the end, and the melody is more melancholic. A good instrumental track.

Track 7 is yet again a disco-ish remix, but a bit more focused on the soft lead guitar, which has been cut-and-pasted around a bit. The vocals seem completely removed, apart from the occasional snippet, making it near-instrumental.

Perhaps the most interesting version is still the last, though. It sounds like a demo version, but this is just an unconfirmed guess. It's got Martin on vocals instead of Dave, and the only music is the actual chords played on something which sounds a bit like a synthetic church-like organ. There are no drums whatsoever on this track. It's a nice contrast to all the disco-ish beats.
