Anyone heard of this before? Fake or not?

Seems pretty legit. It's almost the same and has the longer and uncut outro - much better to end that way IMO.

Thanks for the find.

Doesn't sound like a demo to me, more like a different (fan?) mix, much like this Instrumental version of Estranged https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqKOOM2y1rk

It's the same takes used on Illusions, much like the Better and TWAT demos were the 90% the same used on the album version.

But no, not a fan mix. The original album edit used a fade at the ending. This one clearly has a longer ending. Seems like a rough version without some minor overdubs.

I'd like to know where it came from, would love to hear more

Sorry, you're right.
I haven't listened to the whole thing - and holy shit snacks - that ending is pretty awesome!

It is indeed.

Thanks for the info. I think I listened to some other stuff from those mixes like 14 years with extending outro, but had never heard Pretty Tied Up before. The q-sound mix ones were the same as the regular mixes, right?

not exactly, that's why those were called Q-Sound and not Regular mixes

So glad I was wrong

I meant the final arrangement. Is it the same?

BTW, the only thing I knew about these Q-sound technology were those arcade machines X-Men vs. Street Fighter, Marvel vs. Capcom..
