I don't have the single but for anyone who does have it, why not pop it on and time it? You never know, it might be something we didn't know of.

It's fan made. It's nicely done, but a simple cut'n'paste job done with some music editing software.

An official extended version of that length would have featured elements not in the version we know. This doesn't.

Unless I read the posts incorrectly(most likely), the 7" was fanmade?

1- The person who put up the digital file is not the same one who started the thread and asked the question. You can't link that mp3 to the 7" single.

2- If you own a copy of the "Bigmouth Strikes Again" single, flip it over and look at the timing of the b-side. It's... 4:40. This is where the confusion comes.
