Promotion:
UK: This single was mainly promoted via a specially designed promo 7" (POPDJ1631) mocking the sleeve and labels of T-Rex releases of EMI (view in left bar). Stock compact discs have been seen on the collectors market with a promo sticker on the plastic case. It is not known whether or not these are officially sanctioned by the record label. The single was also promoted with the help of a one-track In-Phase promotional video.

Germany: The UK cd-single was sent to German media with a 'Compact Info' press release in German.
