Yep, my CD-single has a burst of static on the left channel round about
0:56 - 1:00.

Maybe this lends weight to my theory that CitW was knocked together in
a day or so, after they decided to release RM as a single? Not that it
sounds like a rushed job musically (although maybe it could have been a
little bit more innovative in that department)...
