Another 7" single (ZS808463) has "Crazy Train" as track # 2. A Japanese 7" single (07SP936) features only the title track.

Also released as 3-track 7" single (A 6859) with "Killer of Giants" and "Rock'n'Roll Rebel" as B-side. First 5000 came with numbered Ozzy autograph.
The 12" single (TA 6859) has the same three tracks.

"Shot in the Dark" was originally written and demoed by Phil Soussan and Steve Overland for the band Wildlife. Soussan brought the song with him and the lyrics were slightly re-written by Ozzy Osbourne. Overland later re-recorded the song in its original AOR style with FM in 2012.
