B-sides for the single include the album track "Harry, Don't Fetch the Water"; a cover of The Experimental Pop Band's song "Boutique in My Backyard"; a dance track called "The Last Seven Minutes With You"; a short atmospheric instrumental, "Manga Carta vs. Matthew Arnold"; and two remixes by PMFF.[1]

Critical reception

The song garnered a positive response from Select magazine, whose review of the single in August 1998 stated;[2]

'I Know Enough...' is clearly theaudience's best single to date – no mean achievement. It stretches understated, poetic lustings over The Smiths and The Pretenders at their most lithesomely jangling. Like Catatonia, this is dignified mainstream guitar pop at its finest. Double A-side 'Harry, Don't Fetch The Water' is as splendidly obtuse as its title.

gollark: The grid here noticeably breaks for a few hours every year or so, presumably because there's a lot of redundancy due to lots of components in it. If we had a smaller-scale one, it would either have to be really overbuilt or fail when it was cloudy for too many weeks or something like that, but it would be free of cascading-failure-y problems.
gollark: Less area/stuff to spread problems over.
gollark: Dunbar's number is an incredibly handwavey estimate, but I think the concept is sound.
gollark: Revolutions have always worked well, so this is a good idea.
gollark: Maybe I should have documented this.
