Three versions of the song have been released. The original album version contains a longer middle eight than the single version, which was broadcast on radio. The version that appears on End of Part One: Their Greatest Hits is edited to replace the line "don't waste my fucking spirit" with "don't waste my angry spirit".

Marti Pellow recorded his own version of the song for inclusion on his 2002 album Marti Pellow Sings the Hits of Wet Wet Wet & Smile.
