Default 3 versions of Unplayed Piano?

I have the original cut of Unplayed Piano, but found out there are two other versions of the song.

A remix version which was used for the official "band" music video (not the video which mostly focuses on A.S.S.N, which then a couple minutes in shows what's was going on in Burma, the song then kicks in....that song is the original cut that I have....that video with the original song is on the action burma website still, I believe)

...and an instrumental version

Why was there a remix version?.....I mean I could understand why there would be one, cuz frankily these days, there's always a remix of almost every song, but was Damien a bit unsatisfied with the original cut and wanted it remixed, or did someone else out of house do the mix for whatever reason?

Primarily, does someone have either the remix version and/or the instrumental version to compare the various versions?

I have a great version of Damien doing a solo version of the song and it's fantastic...though I wish Lisa would've been there to sing her parts.

The original version is preserved as the instrumental on the single, it has the vocals taken out. The remix is the main track on the single and an unedited mix with vocals of the original recording has never been released.

Well, that's why I wanted to hear the difference, because I believe I have the original unedited mix.

The version I have doesn't even sound like the remix clip (the one that's used for the music video) that I've heard. What I like to call "the original" has.....I guess you could say more instruments laid over the track, or/primarily has more emphasis on the guitar and piano, seems more raw, where the remix is more blended and is heavier on the beats of each instrument.

Are you thinking of Lonely Soldier, Miss Pink? Christy Moore was on the single version of that, but I'm pretty sure it was only Damien, Lisa and the band on Unplayed Piano...

I'm not sure that's correct.

Right now I'm reading..

-Original cut

-Remix

-Instrumental

I've got the original.

If no one can post the instrumental or remix, at least tell me what they sound like, especially the instrumental, (I've heard a small bit of the remix). Is there any difference in sound, from the original or remix.
