  • "The Metro" was originally released in 1981 but didn't chart until it was released following "Sex (I'm a...)" in 1982.
  • "No More Words" was also included as the B-side of Madonna's No. 1 hit of 1985, "Crazy for You". Both songs were part of the soundtrack for the film Vision Quest. Nonetheless, "No More Words" is not included in the soundtrack album.
