I just asked if they made different studio versions of it, because I think there is another one that sounds a little bit different.

P.S.: Sorry, I asked in German because my English is a little bit poor, so ... just ignore my mistakes xD

No. This is the one and only studio version of this song. :)

[BorisMaric]

Two versions were recorded.

One around 88/89 as a b-side for Bring It Back Again.

The other one in 1992 for the Original Cool album.

@BorisMaric Actually you can easily find the other one on youtube. I think that is the more well-known. Youtube won't let me paste the link here, but you'll find it.

I myself would be interested to know why there are two. I mean, when each was recorded and for what album.
