The Jokers' Edition

In 2002, another version of the album was released as Wild Card - The Jokers' Edition. While the 2001 version had included both Terence Trent D'Arby (his old name) and Sananda Maitreya (the name he had legally adapted in 2001) on the cover, the Jokers' Edition marked the first time the artist solely used the latter. This version of the album became the universally recognised version and provided two singles - "O Divina" and "What Shall I Do?".
