Release

In addition to the regular 7" single, two 12" singles were released with different track listings. A limited edition 7" single pack was also released, including four photo postcards (of the band members) taken from the video location shoot, and four Level 42 logo stickers. A CD Video single (CD-V) was also released in 1988.

The album version of the song was remixed for the single release and while both sound similar, the album version fades out at the end, while the single version does not.

Music video

The music video for "It's Over" was shot in the Mammoth Lakes area of north-eastern California near the state border with Nevada.
