ok I'm gonna do a breakdown post for those of us who are confused with the different versions of Nolita Fairytale.
. first, we have the "Pre-Release "demo" version" around 3:18 in length
this is the first full length version of Nolita Fairytale released on the internet. very similar to the actual album version we have now, except the extended drum intro is missing
. second, we have the "Alternate vocal version" around 3:27/3:28 in length
this was originally released on The Inc. Records official website as "Nolita Fairy Tale". This is the first time we heard the extended drum intro to Nolita Fairytale, also, a noticible difference in the vocals, especially around 1:25 into the song, when Vanessa says "take away my record deal" more people seem to like it over the first recording.
. third, we have the official album version, (or at least so far the official Single version) (3:28 in length) originally released on iTunes, (and promo single CDs across the united states) also on Vanessa's official myspace page. This version is used in the music video. basically it's the first version, but with the extended drum intro as in the 2nd version. The vocal track seems to be the same as the first recording (going by the difference in the line "take away my record deal")
I haven't gone too far into investigating this, because it seems hard and complicated, but...
yeah basically that's the breakdown
