About the song
Although it's named "remix" this song is actually a re-recording of the 1978 original. The Police toyed with this song a lot. They played the normal fast version for a few years before experimenting with a much slower tempo. In May 1981 they jammed at Surrey Sound Studios with the plan to record a b-side for an upcoming single. Again they played a slower version, not unlike this version which appeared as a b-side in 1983.
Personnel
- Sting – bass guitar, vocals

Lyrics
Sleep lay behind me like a broken ocean Strange waking dreams before my eyes unfold You lay there sleeping like an open doorway I stepped outside myself and felt so cold Take a look at my new toy It'll blow your head in two, oh boy Truth hits everybody Truth hits everyone Oh, oh, oh Truth hits everybody Truth hits everyone Truth hits everybody Truth hits everyone I thought about it and my dream was broken I clutch at images like dying breath And I don't want to make a fuss about it The only certain thing in life is death
