  • This is the first single from Alphaville (barring re-releases) that did not include an original B-side track
  • The "7 Inch" mix is the same as the album version
  • The CD Single Promo has a black colour cover with red fangs, and not a red colour cover with white fangs as the official CD Maxi Single and the CD Single Promo Digipack has.

Other releases

The "Faithful & True" and "12 Inch Berlin" remixes appeared again later on the Dreamscapes release, where the Berlin remix was re-labeled as the "Speed" remix.

Charts

Fools hit #10 in Finland and #70 in their native Germany.

gollark: How much of it, anyway?
gollark: Not sure that needs a ping...
gollark: I mean, they are newish features, but I'm not sure they're interesting enough to be worth an entirely new purchase vs KSP 1, with its mods.
gollark: This KSP 2 looks quite like existing KSP with better graphics (well, that's the trailer, not necessarily ingame footage) and more parts for colonies and stuff.
gollark: You know, if I remember correctly, one of the RGB SSDs around was mis-powering its LEDs and making the actual SSD overheat.
