Belouis Some – Some People (The Population Boom Boom Mix) (UK 12″ Promo)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1985

“Some People” is a 1985 single by British artist Belouis Some, from his 1985 debut album Some People. The song reached the Top 40 in the UK, peaking at #33 on the UK Singles Chart in April 1986. In the U.S., the song reached #67 on the Billboard Hot 100.

This extremely rare UK 12″ promo contains the commercially unreleased “Population Boom Boom Mix” which I suspect is an unused Steve Thompson & Michael Barbiero remix with edits by Bruce Forest although they are not credited on the labels. The b-side “Dub Version” is the same mix that is found on the Uk and US releases of the standard 12″ with edits by Bruce Forest.

No producer or remix credits are listed on this release. The b-side is a plain white label.
