All Important Single Edits On CD

I've been going through my music library and oddly found two songs that I had in iTunes Match format that were actually a little sped up: Flashdance (What A Feeling) and Lesley Gore's It's My Party. Is that something anyone has come across before? It seems limited to the iTunes version considering I wasn't able to track down a CD with the same track lengths.
 
Hello again! I was wondering if anyone is aware of a version of Zhané's Vibe that doesn't sound like garbage. The album/single versions all have pretty prominent mastering issues.
 
That video caused some debate among the people I consult with some time ago.
The conclusion was, with its edited intro, it's most likely a promo radio edit.
No-one has ever found a commercial pressing which wasn't the standard version.
The actual time of the commercial UK 45 is 3.39.

Disregarding the long version, all CD copies are the 45 version, it's just a question of exactly where they fade. The US 45 was a few seconds longer than ours.

Thanks for the information.So this is possibly a promo version. Usually that YouTube source is good for finding the correct single version
 
Another question regarding Shakatak's Easier Said Than Done.Does the single version appear on cd as one user on Discogs times it at 4:07 and I could not find a version at that time.

Version of Chi Mai on Private Stock records from 1978 is now available digitally running 3 29 which is the same as it's 1978 7" single whereas the BBC version runs a couple of seconds shorter so I think 3 29 is the proper single edit for the track.

I have a timing of 4.10 for Easier Said Than Done.

This is the CD I found for it
Shakatak - Easier Said Than Done (Music 4 You Hit Collection Volume 3)
