Trivia "Kill Me (Ce Soir)" was covered by Iron Maiden as a B-side of their 1990 single "Holy Smoke".
On the Dutch pressing (MCA-2139) that was marketed in Europe, the Side 2 label has the song lists double printed. A slight offset is very noticeable. It is unknown how many of these 'double prints' were sold before the manufacturer caught the error.
