Notes
The "-213" in the cat# appears on the sleeve only.
The A-side label and sleeve say Sex Mix (8:20) but the A-side actually plays the New York Mix (7:25).

There are at least five editions of this German 12" single, all with the same sleeve, cat#, and list of tracks printed on them. Most are mislabeled. They can be distinguished by what track their A-side actually plays and what matrix codes are etched in the run-out area near the labels:
1. An original 1983 edition, correctly labeled; its A-side actually plays the 8:20 Sex Mix, which is an echo-ey "dub" version bearing almost no resemblance to the hit single/LP version. "83" appears in the A-side etchings.
2. A 1984 reissue, incorrectly labeled; its A-side actually plays the 7:25 New York Mix, which is an extended version that sounds like the hit single with a long instrumental intro. "84" appears in the A-side etchings.
3. This 1985 repress of the 1984 reissue, incorrectly labeled; its A-side actually plays the 7:25 New York Mix. "85" appears in the A-side etchings.
4. A 1989 repress of the 1984 reissue, incorrectly labeled; its A-side actually plays the 7:25 New York Mix. "89" appears in the A-side etchings, but without "II" at the end.
5. A 1990s repress of the 1984 reissue, incorrectly labeled; its A-side actually plays the 7:25 New York Mix. Unlike previous editions, it has dark blue labels containing light blue text and the PolyGram-era Island logo. "89" appears in the A-side etchings, with "II" appended.
