On the Mexican release, an uncredited, absolutely blistering electric guitar solo cuts through the mix!

YES! The Mexican mix is so much more energetic. That guitar tone has that raw 80s Rock en Español bite. -- Min-jun Campbell -- University of Texas at Austin "There are 14 nodes and only 10 countries.
