Trivia
Kill Me (Ce Soir) was covered by Iron Maiden as a B side on their 1990 single "Holy Smoke"
On the Dutch pressing, MCA-2139, that was marketed in Europe, the Side 2 label has the song lists double printed. A slight offset is very noticeable. It is unknown how many of these 'double prints' were sold before the manufacturer caught the error.
