you are....
First of.... the other versions that are charting are (the same song but FROM THE ALBUM, instead of the single.) and an extended remix of the song....
DJs and a lot of house music fans prefer extended remixes and EP remixes to original songs... PLUS a lot of clubs use the remixes instead of the original songs.
By releasing those remixes only fulfill that market.
Rock artists, indie artists, alternative artist... EVERYONE has dance remixes of their songs.
Another thing is re-editing the single by adding a featured artist. That can be a bit 'shady' and 'all for the sales'.... but WFL is selling on its own.
ACTUALLY it hasnt even been discounted yet...
