The single was supposed to be the first of four singles from the Sing to God album with each cover dedicated to a band member, but only two were produced, the second being "Odd Even". The other two on the single are exclusive to this release and have not been reproduced on any other release.

A photo of drummer Bob Leith appears on the single’s artwork, which is also a portion of the artwork for the album Sing to God.
