[SoLVED]-Help identifying radio mix of Unfaithful by Rihanna

Hi everyone - hope you're well.

When Rihanna released Unfaithful in 2006, rather than play the album version many radio stations often played a different version that had a slightly higher BPM than the original - overall, it had a deeper R&B sound as a result... however, I haven't been able to find the name of this version anywhere. The Wikipedia page for the track ([External Link Removed for Guests]) provides track listings for each release - but none contain the edit that i'm referring to.

Has anybody by any chance heard this version - and if so, do you know its name?

Thank you as ever for your help.

Do you have a sample? That might help.

I don't unfortunately - which I appreciate isn't overly helpful!

Interesting you remember something specific back from 2006 but have no sample or record of it.

Could it be this?

This definitely isn't the one - thank you for the suggestion, though.

Unfaithful (Tony Moran Radio Mix) ----------
Unfaithful (Hamel Radio Edit) ----------
Unfaithful (Maurice's Radio Edit) ----------
Unfaithful (Nu Soul Radio Edit) ----------
Unfaithful (Reavers remix) ----------

If it wasn't any of the above, then there really isn't a way to ID the track since it wasn't anything officially recognised. Then again you said it was generally played on the radio, I'm sure more people would know of this if it was played on many radio stations.

For anyone curious - I managed to locate this. Looks like I was referring to the Stargate remix - doesn't seem to be very common at all... can't even find a sample!
