It was released as both a 7″ and a 12″ single. The 7″ had a remix of the album version on side A, and a track was written by Wilde herself on side B entitled “Shangri-La”, also from the Teases and Dares album. Both tracks were extended for the 12″ release. It also featured in the soundtrack of the American movie Secret Admirer.
