    2:15 • Studio version • C • Stereo • 2015 mix - The drums and lead guitar are at center instead of at one side; the vocals are at left and right, instead of mainly centered. There is less of the deliberate echo, and it’s all in the center. The fade is more rapid, so that the song is a bit shorter in the new mix.
