Background Information
“God Part II” was released as a promotional single to radio at about the same time “When Love Comes to Town” was released as a commercial single. The promotional single for “God Part II” was released in a regular jewel case, but without any inserts. On most copies there is a sticker affixed to the front of the jewel case announcing the title of the CD as well as the track listings.
This sticker said “U2 God Part II (Remix) plus Desire (Hollywood Remix) & the Rattle and Hum B-Sides. Now available on CD! For Radio Only” as well as the catalog number. On the CD itself the version of “Hallelujah Here She Comes” is labelled as the Hollywood remix. But it isn’t a remix. The song is the same as found on the B-side of the “Desire” single.
