"My Love of This Land" was first released as a 7" single, backed by B-side "Darkness Before Dawn" (previously from the album Night Time). "My Love of This Land" was then released as a 10" single in the UK, featuring a remix of the song by Glenn Skinner on the A-side, along with "Darkness Before Dawn", and "Follow the Leaders-Dub" and "Sun Goes Down" on the B-side. A third release of the single as a 12" featured the same A-side as the 10" release, while the B-side included a live version of "Pssyche" with "Follow the Leaders-Dub".[1]
