Actually, what happened with Watermark was that it was originally              
released without the "Storms In Africa II" track.  I think that when the       
"Orinoco Flow" track became successful, the record company decided to          
follow it with another single and figured it wouldn't be a success in          
the U.S. without English lyrics.                                               
                                                                               
I found out about the new version's inclusion on further pressings of          
the album when I replaced my original copy which found its way out of          
its jewelbox and was smashed in my car seat.  When it was first                
included, the sticker on the longbox stated the fact.  Now when you go         
to the store,  the sticker isn't there.  But the track still is.  I            
can't vouch for the Canadian version, but the U.S. one did originally          
appear sans extra track.
