I'm NOT asking for bootlegs...

I have most of that shit.

What I'm interested in is all the alternative and extended versions of a lot of officially released songs which I hear so many fans talk about.

I do own a few... I love the alternative dance version of Come for example - probably more than the album version.

I'm wondering if someone can post a list of ALL the alternative, extended or remixed versions of his 80s and 90s work which exist?

And if someone wants to PM me then that's up to them, I spose.

Hate to burst your bubble, but nearly 100% of the "alternative" versions of songs (like the version of Come you mentioned) are in fact bootlegs, never officially released.

There's an awesome list on HQ that BorisFishPaw put together that puts every officially released song in alphabetical order. Check it out:

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

I think there may be a bit of confusion over the definition of 'bootleg' here.

There are indeed a lot of official remixes and alternate versions that have been released as b sides or otherwise over the years, and there are also the dj made 'remixes' that are known as bootlegs.

Not to be confused with bootlegs of unreleased Prince material!
