Notes

The Special Edition Enhanced CD includes 4 tracks (Video 1 to Video 4) recorded live at MTV Studios, London; where the packaging comes in a red fabric hardback book cover. The 24-page booklet includes the printed lyrics, and also hand-written lyrics, scribbles and notes from the band. The video content is in Quicktime format. Good Song's video is mislabeled as a video of Caravan.

Track 0 is a hidden track which can be played by rewinding from track 1 to position -6:40. (The song is mentioned in the credits section.)
There is a version of this release that does not contain the pregap track. (Think Tank)

Reviews

    LordRockingham
    Rather bass heavy and compressed sounding. Unusually poor for Blur who's releases on both vinyl and cd are normally top notch.
