International /Here to Stay Best of confusion

does anybody know what countries versions will have the 6 full original 12" (for sure) on the International/ Here to Stay Best of greatest whatever they decide to call it. searching the CD websites presents total confusion in the listing of tracks and the name of the CD.

i probably want the one with these twelve tracks below ... if it ends up actually existing... apparently the Austrailian vesion has 14 tracks with shorter versions, and . what about the Canadian and UK version? the Madagascar version?

"Ceremony"

"Blue Monday" (original 12-inch mix)

"Confusion" (Arthur Baker 12-inch mix)

"Thieves Like Us"

"Perfect Kiss" (original 12-inch mix)

"Shellshock"

"Bizarre Love Triangle" (Shep Pettibone 12-inch mix)

"True Faith" (original 12-inch mix)

"Touched by the Hand of God" (original 12-inch mix)

"Crystal"

"60MPH"

"Here to Stay"

"Confusion" isn't the Arthur Baker-Version. It's the same shitty version as on "Substance"!

well, im trying to find out if any of the versions have this promised tracklisting with the Arthur baker 12". I've seen 4 versions of the tracklistings, it is seems to depend on the country.

Alright! For the german "International" i can tell you:

• Ceremony -> Substance-version
• Blue Monday -> Substance-version
• Confusion -> Substance-version
• Thieves Like Us -> Substance-version
• Perfect Kiss -> Low-Life album-edit
• Shellshock -> Substance-version
• Bizarre Love Triangle -> Substance-version
• True Faith -> Substance-version
• Touched BTHOG -> 12" version from the CD-Single
• Crystal -> Get Ready album-version
• 60 MPH -> Get Ready album-version
• Here To Stay -> Radio-Edit

Cheers.

I voted for the Finsbury DVD. What I would have prefered for International is a CD containing the original uncut versions of Ceremony (before Gillian), Temptation 7" (as I already have got the 12"), Confusion 12", Perfect Kiss 12"; I don't mind about the rest, they could put any hit songs to fill the CD.

I notice the Japanese version of International has the original 12" version of Perfect Kiss. Does anyone know whether this is the full 8:46 12" version or the edited Substance version? Thanks.

Me thinks that the UK version is actually the same CD & box as the German version...

I say this, because all of the reissued London CD's have 'Manufactured in Germany' on the back, which is what all the copies of 'International' that I've seen in UK shops have as well.

So, the 14-track version - nowt to write home about, and no hard-to-find mixes - buy Retro instead.

From memory (i.e. I have the Japanese version of International, but can't find it right at this moment!), the tracklisting is exactly the same as all the other versions out there - i.e. Perfect Kiss is edited!
