Commentary:

Remix of Bremen Nacht, presumably overseen by Simon Rogers as he shares writing credits on the song (the original is credited to MES only). Features MES’s megaphoned vocals plus wonky keyboard. Not really played live on stage as the versions which exist stick more closely to the Bremen Nacht original.
The vinyl version features a short an excerpt of the track as found on the cassette and CD versions.
