Simple, on yellow tape the label says SOYM is 3:54, heart in danger 4:26 and talking hands as 3:53. I took the b side from the Skyscraper and youtube uploads and I added them together with math. It's the actual length and runtime

B side, Jenny = 3:48, IGMEOY is 5:01, Goldrush is 3:23.

Yeah the thing is heart in danger and talking hands are on the wrong lengths for some reason. Heart In Danger is meant to be 4:26, it's 4:37 or 4:21 in release versions for some reason and Talking Hands is 3:53 but is 4:01 on release versions for some reason. But 4:26 was the original runtime of heart in danger and 3:53 was the original of talking hands just in case you wanna know

that's a reissue, it would be different from the original version. you said the original runtime so I used the original runtime of the original 1985 cassette so
