OTHER NOTES |
Beautiful Day was released to radio on August 31, 2000 as
the lead off single from All That You Can't Leave Behind.
The commercial single was released on October 9, 2000 in Europe and Australia,
and October 10, 2000 in Canada. There was a 12" single released a couple
of weeks later in the USA, but no domestic CD singles for the US. There
would be no commercial releases for this album in the US after this single
until the 7 (Target EP) was released in early 2002.
The single contained several live tracks from the 1997 Mexican concert.
Tracks from this show were also released on Hasta La Vista
Baby, a fanclub only release. Discotheque also appeared on that release.
Last Night on Earth and Velvet Dress did not appear on that compilation.
The video portion of these CDs requires Quicktime, which is not included
on the CD, so if you plan to get the Australian release which contains
this video, you will need to download this software.
Beautiful Day appeared on several other releases. Various remixes appeared
on the Stuck in a Moment (Europe / Australia) singles
and on the Canadian Walk On singles. One of these,
as well as Always and Summer Rain, would later appear on the 7
(Target EP). A live version of Beautiful Day from Boston was released
on a promo CD from Best Buy. |
