OTHER NOTES
Electrical Storm is to be the first release from the Best of 1990 - 2000 release. The single was commercially released October 21 in most of the world and October 22 in North America. The single features multiple versions, and was for the first time, released as a DVD single outside of the UK.  A scan of some of the early single artwork placed the track "Kite (Live from Boston)" on the second CD format, but currently none of those released have carried that track. Until confirmed as , we have removed this track from our listings.

The "Band Version" of Electrical Storm is the version remixed by Carl Glanville. There has been some confusion as to what this version of the song was called, but a recent promo finally puts a name on this version of the song "The Band Version".

In the UK, fans had an opportunity to send information on a postcard into Island to be placed on a mailing list. These postcards were found in various singles from the All That You Can't Leave Behind album. Those who filled out these cards got a special "Collectors Wallet" mailed to them at the time of the Electrical Storm singles release. The wallet had space to hold the double case single and the DVD.
