What alternative mixes are there?
So, I just learned that there are three distinct mixes of Motorcycle Emptiness in the wild. Possibly four - we have:
A) The Generation Terrorists mix, its most obvious distinguishing feature being the tat-tat-tat on the high hat which runs throughout the entire track in its left channel
B) The 2003 Forever Delayed mix, its most obvious being that it opens with the riff against just strings
C) The Video mix, which drops the high-hat from the studio version and has far more prominent acoustic guitars
D) Possibly a unique US mix, on the US release of GT. The US version of the track does run 2 seconds shorter and appears to be mastered slightly differently, but I'm struggling to identify any clear distinguishing features

I'm now wondering, what other remixes have the Manics sneakily released without telling us? I'm aware the US release of The Holy Bible is very different to ours (and, imo, much better in places for it), but what else might there be?
