The UK release features the band's cover of The Geto Boys' "Mind of a Lunatic." British band Goldfrapp created a remix of the song in 2003 called Marilyn Manson vs Goldfrapp. This featured as the second track on the UK release of "This Is the New Shit", the CD also contained the video for the single.
