The first version I heard on the radio and the version I fell in love with. Lucky enough to have this on a CD single - remember those??? Great song from a great musician.
Freaking FINALLY!!!! I thought I was losing my mind thinking I remembered a different version of this song than what is available today!!! I KNEW I remembered a version with a much better sound to it and a great guitar riff that isn’t on the version these days. I knew I wasn’t crazy!!!! Hot damn! Thank you so much for posting this!!
Me too, Karina! You weren't crazy. This is what they now refer to as the Radio Edit....the one we all remember and loved, without all the added background voices and all the other additions to the arrangement.
Same here. I've looked forever and gave up deciding to look again and found it. YAY!!! I had the old cassette single in high school when it came out. I'm ecstatic.
How do you cool your lips after a summer's kiss? How do you rid the sweat after the body bliss? How do you turn your eyes from the romantic glare? How do you block the sound Of a voice you'd know anywhere? Oh, I really should have known By the time you drove me home By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes By the chill in your embrace The expression on your face, told me Maybe, you might have some advice to give On how to be insensitive, insensitive, ooh, insensitive How do you numb your skin after the warmest touch? How do you slow your blood after the body rush? How do you free your soul after you've found a friend? How do you teach your heart It's a crime to fall in love again? Oh, you probably won't remember me It's probably ancient history I'm one of the chosen few Who went ahead and fell for you I'm out of vogue, I'm out of touch I fell too fast I feel too much I thought that you might have some advice to give On how to be insensitive Oh, I really should have known By the time you drove me home By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes By the chill in your embrace The expression on your face that told me Maybe, you might have some advice to give On how to be insensitive (how to be) Insensitive (how to be) Insensitive (how to be)
I was 9 when this came out singing it like I knew something about love 🤣🤣...I played the hell outta this song on my tape player, 😭😭 man the memories lol if only we could go back
1995 was the year I first started really getting into music as a kid, and I always loved hearing this song on the radio. I've been looking for this version for years! My 25 year old memories are of course fuzzy, but I knew the album version sounded off to me and that there must be a radio version out there somewhere. So stoked to find it, thanks for the upload!
Omg this is the version I had on my cassette single and it took me forever to find it finally. Thank you for uploading this one. For a while I thought I was trippin thinking it may have never existed lol.
No US stations ever played this version. I remember when this song came out very well. This version sucks and I don't like it. I liked the other version which is the only one I have ever heard before.
@@ericdraven7185 I live in a Canadian border city between the US and Canada, however all of our main radio stations come from the US (Detroit). This is the version they played on the radio there (which I don't like either). I just assumed the rest of the US played that version. However, Much Music used to play the video all the time and it was the regular album version they played which is miles ahead better. Far more emotional. According to Discogs, the US promo CD single was the "remix" (this version in the video) as track 1. Track 2 was the LP version. They run the same time. This version was also on the commercial US cassette single. Oddly enough, the US commercial CD single had the LP version, lol. Go figure.
This is a live cut in a radio station that was released on vinyl single thats why it’s so good and rare to find. I have honestly been combing through everything for years for this cut and still haven’t found it as an MP3. Only on UA-cam
I was just listening to the other version after not hearing it for yrs...and thought it did sound right . THIS is the one I remember!!!! I wasn't remembering it wrong!!
THANK YOU!!!! I’ve been searching for YEARS on UA-cam, iTunes, and numerous streaming services for THIS version of Jan Arden’s Insensitive! I’m so happy you uploaded it! This is the best version of this song! Which album is this off of?
maridean56 The original song was on “Living Under June” but I think I found this version on a “Hitdisc” CD at a used CD store. I had it on my computer and when I went to look for the CD I couldn’t find it, but if I remember correctly, that’s where I got it. I think it was only released to radio stations.
This is the "Remix". It was only released commercially on the U.S. cassette single of "Insensitive" and later as the 7" vinyl B-side of "Good Mother". The U.S. promo CD (issued only to radio stations) and a couple radio promotional CDs are the only places where this "Remix" has ever appeared on CD. A&M (now owned by Universal Music) has really dropped the ball in making the hit radio versions of huge songs like this one available in today's digital and streaming industry. They have been completely lost to history! What a shame! By the way, I think that the "Remix" is brilliant and gives the song that extra something that was missing in the original "LP Version".
@@quinnthereaux7719 You're welcome. So many hit versions of songs have been long forgotten. This is just one of many. The album versions have replaced most hit versions, unfortunately.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VERSION!!!! You have ended my ~20-year quest. I heard it on the Satellite Radio service (ykwim), but, you know, you get to hear it once every.... week? The Album version is not bad, but compared to this one... Never going back to the album version.
Thanks so much for uploading this, Ryan's Tube. I had the cassette and have been looking for this version online for years. One UA-camr had it up a long time ago (strangely enough, from a 45, I believe), but he took his video down, and I've looked for this version ever since. I'm bookmarking you and subscribing so that I'll never lose it. And BTW, the interlude on this version with the "cowbell" just can't be beat! I don't understand why A&M doesn't re-release it rather than the rather uninspiring album version. Thanks again. Much appreciated.
I don't consider this the "rare, alternate" version. To me, this is the original version that I heard back in '96 on the radio. This is the version I loved and couldn't get enough of, before it was redone with all those background vocals and other "enhancements".
That's what brought me here. Reminds me of the last time I saw a guy I was madly in love with. By the time he closed the car door and drove off I knew I would never see him again. This was many years ago and I moved on but this song describes exactly how I felt and my observations.
I'm confused. Are there 2 versions of her Living Under June album? This is the version I remember and prefer it MUCH more than the other version I found on Spotify.
Yeah, but over time some songs haven’t really spread throughout the internet like others. Like how you can’t find almost any Aaliyah songs that came out after her first album on any streaming platforms (other than youtube) or to download. Or how that Dionne Farris song “I Know” was irritatingly hard to find until about a year ago (nostalgic+ 90s radio song).
😂😂😂 You literally could NOT find this version when it was all over the radio. There was no way to search for it online to know that the cassette single had this version on it, so if you just bought the album or even the CD single or maxi single, you'd be stuck with the album version. And try finding it in any official form now, on any streamer or greatest hits package. "iTs nOt rArE," he writes, under basically the only place you can find this version on the internet. 😂

I thought it was a Mandela Effect for awhile 🤣
Same here. I've looked forever and gave up deciding to look again and found it. YAY!!! I had the old cassette single in high school when it came out. I'm ecstatic.
Yes me too😂
It doesn't matter how many versions there are.... This song simply rules.Goosebumps whenever l listen to it. She sings so gracefully.
YES! Been looking for this version for awhile!!
I don’t even know how I got it haha
Finally the great version of this song I remember. Thanks!!!
You're welcome!
The solo (and the electric guitar work in general) in the middle of this version kicks butt!
I have been looking for this version forever. Thank you so much!!!
You’re welcome! I didn’t see it anywhere on UA-cam so I thought some people might enjoy me putting it up!
How do you cool your lips after a summer's kiss?
How do you rid the sweat after the body bliss?
How do you turn your eyes from the romantic glare?
How do you block the sound
Of a voice you'd know anywhere?
Oh, I really should have known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face, told me
Maybe, you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitive, insensitive, ooh, insensitive
How do you numb your skin after the warmest touch?
How do you slow your blood after the body rush?
How do you free your soul after you've found a friend?
How do you teach your heart
It's a crime to fall in love again?
Oh, you probably won't remember me
It's probably ancient history
I'm one of the chosen few
Who went ahead and fell for you
I'm out of vogue, I'm out of touch
I fell too fast I feel too much
I thought that you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitive
Oh, I really should have known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face that told me
Maybe, you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitive (how to be)
Insensitive (how to be)
Insensitive (how to be)

Love it. By far the better version.
Yes I do too.
I like this version. I love how it has more of a Rock sound to it.
Omg this is the version I had on my cassette single and it took me forever to find it finally. Thank you for uploading this one. For a while I thought I was trippin thinking it may have never existed lol.
The BEST version. Should've just used this one for release.
This is the version the US stations played I think.
I believe you're right. But I prefer the original. It hits the feels deeper.
No US stations ever played this version. I remember when this song came out very well. This version sucks and I don't like it. I liked the other version which is the only one I have ever heard before.

Always loved this version. Sounds more like raw emotion. Not reflective, like the other version.
This is the only version I ever heard on the radio and I much prefer it.
Wonderful in so many ways. Jann Arden is a very emotive singer
This is a live cut in a radio station that was released on vinyl single thats why it’s so good and rare to find. I have honestly been combing through everything for years for this cut and still haven’t found it as an MP3. Only on UA-cam
Actually, this is not a live cut from a radio station. It is the "Remix" version released on the U.S. radio promo CD and U.S. cassette single.
I was just listening to the other version after not hearing it for yrs...and thought it did sound right . THIS is the one I remember!!!! I wasn't remembering it wrong!!
This so much better than the version we had here in Canada. Much more feeling and soul into it. Thankx for finally uploading it.
You’re welcome!
I prefer the other version
Jann Arden is exquisite in all her incarnations.
@@howardblasingame7961 Yes she is. With age she's come into her own sound.

Bellenger1981 Thank you for the great info on the remix of this song! 👍
Thank You, I've been searching forever for this version. Thank You, so so much! 🙏
You’re welcome! Glad I had it!
@@RyansTube2 I'm glad you had it, too! I had looked ALL over UA-cam for this! ...and the cassette single of mine was worn out lol. Thank You! 😊
How is this song not used in a Try Not to Cry challenge?
I absolutely ADORE her and this song says it all.. every emotion… ❤️
Super song
THANK YOU FOR THIS VERSION!!!!
You have ended my ~20-year quest.

You are welcome! I don’t understand why they don’t release it either.
Why is this version so hard to find??? THANK YOU!!
I bought the 45 and it was this version. I like it better. The rock beat pounds on insensitive to the singer's broken heart. That is life.
por fin, esta si es la buena y no la otra version que suena como una tonta cancion de los 80s
Very Cool 😎
It Was On the Denver Radio In 1996.
I don't consider this the "rare, alternate" version. To me, this is the original version that I heard back in '96 on the radio. This is the version I loved and couldn't get enough of, before it was redone with all those background vocals and other "enhancements".
It’s rare because you can’t find it on any music services except this video on UA-cam. I titled it that way so people would find it.
@@RyansTube2 I get it. Thank you so much for uploading it!
I had this version on 7 " vinyl.
brilliant song...
Best version, thank you so much!!!
I like this version too but I love the original version of this song.
This was my ex 's ringtone for years. He never knew it
Like both versions, but this is the one I heard on the radio as a teenager, so I have to go with this version.
This is the version I prefer -- the guitar playing is better
I love you!!
Haha, glad I could provide this for you!
11/20/2023😊
Brings it back up
i was surprise ♥️♥️♥️
This version is way better ❤❤
That one last time together when you realize it's over.
That's what brought me here. Reminds me of the last time I saw a guy I was madly in love with. By the time he closed the car door and drove off I knew I would never see him again. This was many years ago and I moved on but this song describes exactly how I felt and my observations.
@@Glasgow-cs2pm May you be well always. It's his loss.
Better than the original
I remember the first time I heard this song on the radio and I thought the song was just called “How?” like the John Lennon song
For the longest time I thought it was the girl from No Doubt who sang this lol😂
I'm confused. Are there 2 versions of her Living Under June album? This is the version I remember and prefer it MUCH more than the other version I found on Spotify.
This was the version only radio stations got. You can't find it anywhere online or on any of her CDs which is why I chose to upload it.
Well, I believe that a tenor saxophone instrumental version of this tune would be more skateable than this version.
Which version is this?
Not sure. It was labeled as a “radio version” in my library.
"Remix" on the U.S. promo CD and commercial cassette single.
Rare Alternate Version
🎉😊
I prefer the original recording, this one is riff heavy
I wouldn't exactly call this "rare." It is the only version I've ever heard on the radio
Yeah, but over time some songs haven’t really spread throughout the internet like others. Like how you can’t find almost any Aaliyah songs that came out after her first album on any streaming platforms (other than youtube) or to download. Or how that Dionne Farris song “I Know” was irritatingly hard to find until about a year ago (nostalgic+ 90s radio song).
It’s rare because you can’t download it.
