The version of Fever (track 2) on this single is the version that was used for the video. Way better than the boring album version (on the Erotica album), this video version - also called Edit One - is very hard to find. It's not even on the Fever single!

About the other tracks on this single: Rain is ok, though I think the album version is better, and Up Down Suite is danceable but totally pointless if you ask me and way too long (12:14).

Grab it as fast as you can for the track 2, but for the track 1-3-4, well, there's no rush.

Rain...us fans all heared it. In my review, I am not focusing on the title track..instead I am focusing on FEVER. I am a Madonna fan and have been looking for an incredible rare video remix of FEVER, and if you are looking for that track on cd too, look no further because this is it!


I love this single   February 1, 2005

The tracks on this single are absolutely phonemonial and I love them so much! The tracks and my comments are below.

1. Rain (Remix Edit) 4.17. This one is so beautiful. It's much tamer than the Video edit or Album version and makes you more relaxed. I have the albums Erotica and Something To Remember which both include the original album version(s) of the song, Rain. However, when i'm feeling sad or in a bad mood, or just want to listen to this song, I turn to this CD because you feel much better and more relaxed.

2. Fever (Edit One) 4.03. Guess what??? This is the video version! The version of Madonna's cover version of Peggy Lee's classic Fever that you've all been waiting for is indeed on here. It's a bonus really because many people longed for it on the Fever CD and it didn't turn up there -- so look here. This version is much much better than the 5 minute album version and takes you to the dancefloor straight away! This version is just brilliant.

3. Rain (Radio Remix) 4.33. The same as track 1 really but it includes the fantastic spoken vocals, so obviously it will be a bit longer than that version, 16 seconds longer to be exact or precise. Again it is very tame and relaxing and I have no complaintments over it at all! The concept of both tracks (1 & 3) are both excellent because it's just nice. I'm glad I can share my next comment with another reviewer on here and say the spoken vocals are included here so I like this version better than track 1.

4. Up Suite Down (Dub / Previously Unreleased) (12.14). This has to be the longest dub i've ever heard of any song! - not just by Madonna but anyone! Most people don't really do dubs on singles so I was rather suprised but it's still good and flows nice just like dubs do! It's danceable and catchy when she repeats "Up, Down, Up, Down, Up Up"! It includes 1 verse from the song Good-bye to Innocence which is the first verse. The original version of Good-bye To Innocence maybe better but this is just a 12-minute good ride dance of a roller-coaster! Overall it's a very nice dub.

You can also get the US Version of the Rain single which includes the Rain Remix Edit and Up Suite Down Dub / Previously Unreleased. It also includes 2 other tracks not on this pressing! The Rain Album Version that we all know and love plus a kinky remix of album track from Erotica, Waiting. Also available: Rain Japan EP, 10 tracks & Rain UK Single featuring Tracks 1 & 4 found on this excellent CD plus US #1 Open Your Heart, from True Blue.

The German version of Rain is the best one that is out there. This is must have.
1. Rain (Radio Remix){Edit}:This is the radio remix without the spoken words in the middle. The spoken vocals are the best part of the song, so why take them out??

2. Fever (Edit One):The Main reason you will want this cd. This is the video version of Fever. The one everyone loves. The one that is 100 times better than the album version. This cd is worth the money just for this song!!

3. Rain (Radio Remix):This version is better than the edit, because it included the spoken vocals in the middle. This is a more simplistic version of "Rain". Though with it's simplicity, it takes so much power away from the song. The orginal is the best.

4. Goodbye To Innocence: This is one of the most atroucious dubs I have heard. It is a 12 minute dub of "Goodbye To Innocence". The only vocals here, are the ones included in the first verse of GTI and "Up, Down, Up Up..." The orginal version is the best go for it. (You can find it on "Just Say Roe")
