That's quite an extensive list of differences, what did you use for comparison? Have you just seen the film enough times that you remembered hearing the original numbers, or did you do a direct comparison to a prior release? I'm quite surprised at the number of differences you've listed. I wasn't familiar enough with the film to pick things like that out, so it's interesting to hear about.

There used to be an old vhs rip of the film on youtube that had the different music portions. I'm a big Van Halen fan so I pretty much memorized all those cues. There may be even more differences, but I'm not 100% sure. Madonna's "Burnin' Up" plays during the strip club scene, and for all I know there may have been different music there to.

Funny thing is, after figuring that Eddie did the score to the movie first, and that these cues were replaced later (this blu-ray release was actually on cable a few times a few years ago. I caught it at like 2:30am and wrote some notes down regarding the music), someone later told me that the way the music is presented in this release IS how it was done originally, and that the music rights/issues came later for the vhs, and the other Van Halen cues were quickly added in for the vhs release.

Who knows? Either way, I still prefer hearing all the Van Halen stuff.
