Additional Remarks

  • Under The Gun is a remake of a song originally titled Two Worlds Apart.

That song was written by Billie Hughes and Roxanne Seeman.
For more details on this, please see the lyrics page for Under The Gun ...

  • The 12" single includes a poster with the cover artwork.
  • The limited edition CD singles come in a black jewel case with paper stickers.
    The standard release CD singles come in a slim-line jewel case.
  • There is a little but clear difference between the Jutland Mix
    and the Metropolis Mix of Under The Gun, which is not so distinct
    between the Metropolis Mix and the version of the 2LP compilation
    A Slight Case Of Overbombing.
    The 7" track and the video track are savagely edited....
  • The lyrics remain the same for all versions and mixes.
  • Highest entry on German charts: no. 40
  • Number of weeks on German charts: 7 weeks
