'Thieves' Question...

Is the version of 'Thieves in the Temple' played in the Graffiti Bridge movie a different version than that on the album?

I just really like the different percussion in that one part and the "ki-ki-ki-kickin' me in my heart" thing...

Yes it is different. . .

Actually, the extended version has the same portion you are mentioning [extra percussion & ki-ki-kickin' me. . .]

...and the version that was released as a single also has that added ki-ki-kickin' me part.

Seriously? They should have included that version on The Hits/The B-Sides.

So I can probably get it on a maxi-single ?

Thank you all for your replies, by the way...

Yep. . .I've still seen it around. . .It shouldn't take too long to find.

The US version has 3 versions:

1. Remix
2. Thieves In the House Mix
3. Temple House Dub

There's a Japanese version that includes tracks from the New Power Generation single. . .

The remix/extended version is great. It also has some poetic extra lyrics which are some of my favourite. The part that starts with "I'm holding on, holding on, the best that I can..."
Life it ain't real funky unless you got that orgPop.

whenever I just read "graffiti bridge", my hands start to itch
for another cdr.

this is the one album that I've done my own version of the most
times. and I just can't get it to come out right.

but it does need "God Is Alive", the "Thieves" extended version
and "Get Off '90".

and a whole lot of other songs taken OFF.

including the gddamn title track mad
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps
