As U2's popularity began to grow, promotional singles began
appearing in other countries with the release of each commercial single.
New Year's Day saw a variety of promotional singles, in the UK, France,
Canada, the US, and in Mexico.
Note: The "Long Version" of New Year's Day is the same as the version
found on the album, War.
