Version is the second album by British producer Mark Ronson, first released on 16 April 2007 through Allido and Columbia Records. It is an album of cover versions with a retro-inspired sound that Ronson considers to be reminiscent of Motown and Stax releases.[1] The album cost more than 870,000 to launch.[2] Version reached number 2 on the UK Albums Chart and has sold 105,584 copies as of January 2015.[3]
In February 2008, Ronson received a BRIT Award for Best British Male Solo Artist over favourite Mika. He also performed a medley of 3 songs from the album, the most acclaimed being "Valerie" in which Amy Winehouse appeared. After the ceremony, Version soared from 22 to 4 in the UK Albums chart.
Version debuted at number 2 in the UK. Overall, the album has spent 45 weeks in the UK Top 75, with 10 weeks in the top 10. In December 2007, the album was certified triple platinum in the UK for sales of over 900,000 copies.[16] BBC Radio 1 listed the album as the 12th most successful of 2007 in the UK, outperforming the likes of Justin Timberlake, Foo Fighters, Nelly Furtado and Lily Allen.[citation needed] Version peaked at No. 129 on the Billboard 200. As of 2010, the album has sold 65,000 copies in United States.[17]
The album was supported by the success of single "Stop Me", which charted at number 2 in the UK, top 5 of the US Dance charts, and in the top 40 of Italy and Australia. Upon its release, the album managed to crack into the World Top 40, charting at 29. Ronson's next single, "Oh My God" with Lily Allen, became his second top 10 single, peaking at 8 in the UK. "Valerie", Ronson's third single, also peaked at number 2 in the British charts, kept out of the top spot by the Sugababes. It has spent a dozen weeks in the top 10 and has sold well over 300,000 copies. The song ended the year as the ninth biggest seller, behind number 1's "Bleeding Love", "Umbrella", "Grace Kelly" among others. "Valerie" also charted in the Switzerland and New Zealand charts and even managed to top the Dutch Top 40 for four consecutive weeks, keeping Leona Lewis from the top spot. Ronson released "Just", featuring Alex Greenwald of Phantom Planet, as the fourth single in the United Kingdom. The song was quickly added to BBC Radio 1's "A-List".

This is bugging me for some time now. The album "Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavoured Water" features the Dirt Road Remix of the song "Getcha Groove on". The original album though features the original song and not the Dirt Road Remix. The Dirt Road Remix was only released later on the remix album. I can't find the original song in the album nor anywhere else on Spotify.
I went to AllMusic, as they list on artist discography pages how many releases there have been with a given release of a band / artist. You can find all the releases of this titled release here from this link: -starfish-and-the-hot-dog-flavored-water-mw0000544330/release...
Seems from a wiki page search for the album title, that wiki only shows a remix version of the album available, and is not listing any content with an original track listing pre-remix version available of this release. Could possible be that the original tracks the band did originally is now out of print, and either the band or the label opted to go with remixed versions of this particular track and/or all tracks have been remixed for a later re-release remix version of this release you are looking for. _Starfish_and_the_Hot_Dog_Flavored_Water
I was able to find two releases available to me from that Limp Bizkit titled released from their artist page, I have provided both of them below. You can check the songs out from each release, each release has that song and seems to have different time stamps, might see if there is a difference between the two tracks?
Now what you said about Wikipedia confused me. I'm not sure if i understood you correctly but wikipedia DOES list the album tracks with the original song and NOT the remix. In fact that's all. I don't see any release on wiki with the DirtRoad mix
As to the spotify links you posted: (now it gets complicated^^) when i scroll through the tracklist here (i mean on this spotify community page on the embedded spotify player) i see both links exactly the same
Ah OK I see what you mean now. Not exactly sure why that release available to you with that release year, ended up with a track that was remixed many years later. Seems to be a meta data labelling mistake perhaps with the release you are seeing. Spotify users can report these errors by the information below. I ended up getting some information confused and crossed up when I made my post, my bad.
If you've seen either
- a track, album, or artist in our catalogue with incorrect information (i.e. wrong release year, misspelling, etc.)
- different artists in the same Artist Page
- incorrect cover arts
- incorrect artists biography
or
- a track or album that isn't playing correctly (i.e. a song only playing one second of music)
Then you can report the error using the Contact Form. Once there, perform the following steps:
Step 1: Click on "I want to report a broken song or wrong song information".
Step 2: Click on the Green Button that reads "I STILL NEED HELP".
Step 3: Copy and Paste the track URI links to the songs into the field that reads "Song URI".
Step 4: Type up a description of the track issues in the "Tell us more" field.
Step 5: Click on the green button "SEND QUESTION".
Be sure to include all Spotify URI's in the body of the message!
After contacting Customer Support, you should receive an automated response from Spotify. The tracks will then be aggregated and reported to the content provider. Customer Support will update their database with the correct information as soon as the label or aggregator has sent them an update with the correct data.
I think this song is becoming hard to find because the beat is entirely sampled from an obscure 70's instrumental I heard once on an indie French radio. Never found the track again, probably came out of some very deep crate digging from Lethal (who's getting all the credits for the beat)
I once read a short Wes Borland interview on Kerrang around 2008, when he still had beef with Limp Bizkit and hadn't come back yet. Back then he was still bitter about having been in the most hated band in America, and when asked by a British journalist about his least favourite LB songs, he stated one of them was "Getcha Groove On"
It's been mostly erased from the internet except for one seven string guitar forum but went like this : "We actually got sued over this piece of s***. There was some sort of sample used in it that someone didnt get full clearance for, so we ended up getting into some serious trouble for a little while."
And my personal thanks to @adrien_dsl for sharing with us all these details. My generation was mostly raised with artists like Limp Bizkit, Eminem and Dr. Dre and we all remember the thrill these guys used to spread from the MTV screen.
However, contents on Spotify really depend on agreements between the platform and rights holders, such as artists or record labels. And things are probably even more specific twenty years after the album release.
Our standard handling time for shipping albums is typically between 1 to 3 business days. Pre-orders may require additional time to prepare and ship, depending on order volume. Orders that contain pre-ordered items will be shipped as a whole once the latest released items become available.
Please note that all purchases may be subject to taxes, such as sales tax, value-added tax (VAT), and customs duties. South Korea has Free Trade Agreements with many countries and music CDs may be exempt from customs duties in certain countries. Nonetheless, we cannot guarantee any exemptions from these taxes that may occur during the shipment process, and customers are responsible for paying the applicable taxes unless we withhold the tax. If you have any questions or concerns regarding tax and customs fees, please do not hesitate to contact our customer support team for assistance.
Providing a complete shipping address, including the house number or apartment room number, is crucial as packages may get lost in transit without this information. Please note that if the package is lost due to an incomplete or incorrect shipping address provided by you, the responsibility lies with you.
While I love getting more and more music from my favorite artists, having multiple versions of what is essentially the same album is frustrating and cluttered. Deluxe albums appear separately from original albums on streaming platforms, meaning the same songs exist in multiple places.
This is the 10th time Taylor Swift topped the chart, being only the second woman to conquer this number, following Barbra Streisand. Also, this was the 4th album of hers to top the chart within the period of 68 weeks, making Taylor the solo artist to fastest accumulate that. This record was previously held by Elton John.
Since 2021, Taylor Swift has been taking fans on a stroll down memory lane by re-releasing a so-called "Taylor's Version" of all of her past albums. The reason involves a contentious feud with a music manager, but it's more broadly about the singer's desire to have control over her catalog of songs.
