I’ve always been curious why Holiday didn’t get a ‘U.S. Mix’ / ‘New Mix’ like both Borderline and Lucky Star did for their 12” singles. 

The Madonna album was already available, so wouldn’t a new mix have encouraged 12” sales more than just giving the full length album version?

ok, looking at Wikipedia am I correct that Holiday was only released on a 12” in the US backed with Lucky Star? It seems they intended a double A side, but then decided to go with Holiday and not treat it as a double A side after all? 
 

I’m so used to thinking of Holiday as a thrice released single in the UK, that it’s strange to see Warner in the US not squeezing more format variants out at all of her early signature song
