Tubthumper

~ Release by Chumbawamba (see all versions of this release, 16 available)

Annotation

Notice European lengths of tracks 6 and 7

Something has changed in the digital stores. Can't tell when this happened. Sometime after 2021 when the previous version of this release was added to MB.

Originally digital shop version did not include "Top of the World". And the CAN/MX/USA stores used different track edits taken from the USA CD. (track 6 & 7)

I check today (Feb 2025) and now the three stores have aligned worldwide and all add "Top of the World".

To confuse things, Spotify has made a new page (the old 12 track page still exists), Apple have deleted their old pages and replaced them with this updated page. Deezer has updated its old page with such a mess of other tracks that it is now a separate release.
