INTRO:
This difference was always the most readily apparent to me. The main "plucking" synth instrument in the intro kinda fades out one pluck at a time in the album version, while in the single version, it's more steady when it repeats.

DRUMS:
The drum loop is COMPLETELY different in the album mix. The original version is a bit more conventional & unassuming, while the Album's drums sound a bit more raw, almost tribal, & they're mixed louder. The drum fills (the "emphasis" drums, the ones that deviate from the usual beat of the song) are also very obviously different.

BACKGROUND STRINGS:
The synth strings in the background are mixed louder in the original mix vs. the album mix.

BRIDGE:
The lead-in for the bridge has that "magical" sounding instrument... It's toned down a bit and doesn't sound quite as "sparkly" in the Album version.

CHORUS LEAD-IN:
The drums here are different again, and the guitar is mixed a bit louder in the Album version.

SPEED:
And the Album Version is slowed down EVER so slightly (playing both songs at the same time, they do start to lose sync).
