Durations printed on the labels verified as correct by playing & timing the record. As compared to the LP versions:
"Billie Jean" repeats the section from approx. 1:11 to 2:33 (starting with "Be careful what you do") one extra time.
"Beat It" repeats the section from approx. 2:07 to 3:30 (the guitar solo plus a little before & after) one extra time.

Both tracks are unique to this release (and the translucent green edition).

Video

Shakagul

Billie Jean is the album mix (4:54 minutes instead of the 6:23 minutes mix). Label says "Billy Jean 6:19" tho. Is this a missprint or did some come with the extended mix?

Kirinaya

It is indeed an extended mix. It's just an entire different one. The regular "Original Mix" got the guitar-solo extended and also has a longer intro with ad-lips at the outro. This record here simply repeated one chours.

Zeueli

Mine plays the 6:19 extended edit as printed. I updated the release notes to clarify. If you have the extended version, it is very obvious where the edit is: the strings which start coming in at 2:33 get cut off right before the lyric "Be careful what you do". If there is a release mispressed with the LP version, you should submit it separately.
