The [[Franklin Mint]] version of the song is an all-keyboards instrumental take created by [[Pat Wilson]]. A clip of this version was released by Karl at the official site, but the US CD single remains the only place to (legally) acquire the full recording. | The [[Franklin Mint]] version of the song is an all-keyboards instrumental take created by [[Pat Wilson]].
