Fwiw it was part of the Japanese 3” single box set. It was chronologically under the STR reissue but used the 1985 cover. I can’t recall which version is on it and sadly it’s in a box in storage rn, plus I don’t think I even have a player for discs that small anymore.

The version that comes in the Japanese box is the original from 1985. The same available on "La Isla Bonita Super Mix" released in 1987.

Still keeping my fingers crossed for a release Sunday (?) or Monday but wouldn't it be typical for Rhino to put out an article celebrating Who's that girl's anniversary but not give us the digital single ... Anyway, never a dull moment and something to look forward to, I guess.

Would Rhino do that? Absolutely they would, like “yes, we are aware that fans are hoping for this digital single right now, and no, you’re not getting it. Take another spin on the speculation merry-go-round in a year’s time, suckers!” 
 

I think because I really wanted to be able to listen to Causing a Commotion mixes on my iPhone again for so long, Sod’s Law says it won’t happen.

I'm confused? What's stopping you from doing that now?  Maybe you are referring to being able to simply "stream" those mixes, but no "law" is keeping those mixes from being on your phone.  I have nearly most of her catalog on my Iphone, including these mixes.  Those mixes are so easily obtained off the internet, and in fact, I'm sure there are links to them at this very forum, which allow you to download.

Since an iOS update ages ago I can’t copy/transfer mp3 files on to my iPhone anymore to play through the Apple Music app. It still syncs libraries with iTunes, but matches my mp3s against what tracks that it has in its library. So any demos, live versions or remixes in my library of mp3s that aren’t on Apple Music get matched with the standard versions of the tracks instead.  
 

If anyone can recommend on app on Apple Store that will let me copy my mp3s on to an iPhone though, I’d be very interested.

I see!  I do agree though Apple Music is a pain in the ass.  This is why I am happy her catalog is being constantly updated on streaming. It's so convenient.  Thanks for explaining!

If you have a YouTube account (which is free to setup), you can use YouTube Music and upload up to 100,000 songs for free to listen to on the app.

I use an app called Doppler that allows you to upload your own files (mp3, flac etc). You can also change the metadata or covers of the file.

I don’t see this coming later today. We usually have word by now. Like to be proven wrong but I’m getting the wrong tingles girls

Nothing on NZ for Who's that Girl today. :(

As expected but yeah, midnight already in NZ and no "WTG" single there on Apple Music.

A Sunday release seemed weird anyway.

Yeah definitely more likely to be Monday if anything.

But who knows.

Nah it ain’t coming I can’t see what day they think it would drop. They’ve all been dropping in the release dates for a good while now. This has been skipped for some reason. Probably to do with the exclusive 12” a few years back. Oh well. I can live without the 12” mix for now but it just seems likely that if they skipped this they’re gonna skip Causing A Commotion too which I’m desperate to get the Silver screen Single Mix on Streaming. 
What’s really odd is that most other standalone singles and soundtrack songs have all been almost prioritised. Almost like they won’t affect any album special editions so there’s no conflict of interest. 
WTG remaining her most neglected era of all time. She really hates it huh. 
I suppose our last imminent hope is that the Super Club Mix EP gets added on CAC date but that would just be another example of not reading the room properly where her fans are concerned.

FEL erasure and now this. Poor Nikki Finn

Not that you guys care about physical media but at least we get wtg on blu ray next week - there are other ways to consume her art other than just in your phone bitches 😂 what a sad world we live in now where that’s the only way some fans want their music 🥹

[planetbenjamin 258]

"Who's That Girl" was released as single in the UK on July 6, 1987. I always thought the US got it on July 7. Wikipedia might have the wrong date (or I might have the wrong date).

That’s cool about WTG. I stand with the CAC contingent though. Would kill to get the movie house mix on streaming. Recently played it again on youtube and reminded how much I loved it. That mid 80s early house sound is 🔥
