On the 2004 2CD Deluxe Edition, there was no Tears Are Not Enough (Steve Brown 12”) (LP 2 Side B) neither The Look Of Love (Special Remix) (LP 3 Side A). However, there were some exclusives that are not included here:
Into The Valley Of The Heathen Go (Lexicon Of Love Out-Take, 5/82) and Alphabet Soup (Swapshop Version, 29/11/81).

The Steve Brown 12" mix of Tears is the standard 12" mix i think. And The Look Of Love (Special Mix) is the US Dub Mix?
