Notes
David Bowie's final single released on RCA Records before leaving the label in 1982 due to both creative differences and contractual disputes. As a send-off to the musician, RCA issued some copies of "Up the Hill Backwards" in the United Kingdom with their previous orange disc label, which had been standard for releases in the 1970's (during which almost the entirety of Bowie's stint on RCA Records was spent).
