This single is in audio format only. Because it took two decades for this to be given an official release, the audio is also commonly found in good quality on various manufactured bootlegs as well as in digital format on the internet. The 2-song appearance (also including "Suedehead") is circulated on bootleg video compilations of Morrissey television appearances.

 

The song has been performed live 55 times by Morrissey, which means every night on the 1992 Your Arsenal tour except for one early festival appearance ahead of the release of "Your Arsenal". It has not been done since, not even in 2011 following its re-release as a single.
