This single was listed in the 1982 Soft Cell 6x12" box "The Twelve Inch Singles". Also mentioned in "Record Collector" March 1988. Emily Broude-Villier commented 13 Sep 2023 at https://www.facebook.com/groups/31897852604/posts/10160245915962605/ "I recall a response from Marc's former manager a few years ago on his website saying that only the sleeve existed and Mercury didn't hold a master for the single at all. It would've been great for the Some Bizzare re-release a few years ago, but the official line was it didn't exist."
