I cant belive it i have just got rave to the joy cd through the post this morn, my mum has got this album which made me buy it, only thing is the one ive got is a different version to hers!! it hasnt got winding road on it which i love and, hot wit you is mixed with a crap nasty girl remix!! and it only has 14 songs on it and my mums album has 18 whats going on!!

I never knew there was another version...What are the other two songs that are missing?

There are 2 versions, one is Rave 'into' the joy and the other is Rave 'Unto'.

There's:

Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic (1999) 18 tracks
http://en.wikipedia.org/w..._Fantastic

And then there's:

Rave In2 the Joy Fantastic (2000) 14 tracks
http://en.wikipedia.org/w..._Fantastic

In my opinion, the release you have is the best (because of Beautiful Strange).

I think people are confusing the words "track" and "song".

"Rave Un2" has 15 songs (but 18 tracks due to 3 segues)
"Rave In2" has 14 songs (and no segues)

Personally I prefer "Rave In2".
Worth it for "Beautiful Strange" alone.

I prefer Rave In2,but it's cool 2 have both! That Hot Wit U remix

i want to change it but models keep popping up on that show.

its a mixed bag of and

i have just been looking on amazon and e bay for this album and none of them have it, i found out this info about it:

Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic is a special edition of 1999’s Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic released only to members of Prince’s NPG Music Club. The release date refers to when shipping of the album began (the first reports from fans having received the album occurred on April 30th). Two tracks from the original 15-track release were left off the new 14-track configuration of the album, “Strange But True” and “Everyday Is A Winding Road,” while one track, “Beautiful Strange,” was added.

looks like i might of purchased a rare-ish album here!!

how many of u have this version? would be interesting to know
