		Thanks easyme, are you stalking me,,,joking. My copy has no sticker (I have two copies, neither with stickers) re:cds I have a few but to list but still prefer the other formats, though I quite like my Galore metal box, an odd item I think

		i had a look at your collection and now have the answer... congrats for your collection !! awesome.. maybe a lack of cds but may not yet listed...? regards

		Hi ebiasi does your copy comes with the stickers ? mine not but it is maybe an wrong mix.. i do not know.. regards.

		Thanks easyme. Interesting, I can only assume my insert is a 1 sided fax copy with a stamped date. If it did not have that date, I would just think It perhaps a photocopy but seems odd to have a copy of the record with a copy of the original insert, who knows...the truth stranger than fiction

		Also jap.whispers after and the top

		Hi on the other side of my insert there is the discography. 5 pics of the album and beside titles of songs. Porno cimes first. Next faith and tib and 17 seconds and bdc. Regards

		Just having a good look at my insert and notice a couple of things. It is one sided only no lyrics or discography on the other side. It is quite faded in places and looks like the effect of a facsimile and there is a small stamp top right that says AUG 1984 which I donâ??t see on this copy. A later promo issue? thoughts?

		Bonjour ... For me here is my (last) version ... This single is released on promotion in France with the illustrated sleeve written on front 'ECHANTILLON GRATUIT, NE PEUT ETRE VENDU' ... And in the upper right-hand corner the reference Polydor '881 058-7' followed by 'POL 001' ... The labels bear the acronym 'SACEM' and the Polydor number identical to the sleeve ... Why put a sticker on these SACEM / Polydor indications that everyone understands in France ??? It would be abnormal to hide them ??? This single with this beautiful sleeve promo was surely accompanied by Press kit(s) ... This French promotion is used in UK with two stickers with English language 'Promotion-Single' 'LC6444' (which means Fiction) pasted on the reference numbers Polydor and SACEM ... This same UK promo was used in Germany by Metronome with a sheet A4 text in German ... The single with the sleeve promo 'Avant PremiÃ?Å¡re' is Polydor (no mention Fiction) has no stickers !!! Sent probably to the radios without file ??? (I bought one like that) ... I think that without this understanding there was confusion, invention and mixing settled ... In summary it should exist ... 2-promo French without stickers with/without files or sheets ... 1-promo UK with 2-stickers with/without files or sheet ... 1-promo Germany with 2-stickers and 1-sheet ... Regards.

		ok thanks sukiak merci.. the one i'm on the way to buy have a sticker on the sleeve i do not if there is one on the record but it comes only with the metronome insert but there is not the lyrics sheet as mentionned on this site... regards

		TO CUREMEMBER & EASYME ... Bonjour ... In France in Records Fairs ? I have seen many times this 7" without the white sticker ... never with the sticker ? In my collection I have both without sticker Under picture sleeve and 'Avant Premiere' sleeve ... purchased directly at french radio stations (without promotional mailings) ? On 'The Cure On Record' is the sticker ? On Internet I have seen many sales with or without sticker ? Here is my point of view on this single ... In UK , Fiction did nothing to promote the album, except the 12" three titles released in a very limited number ? For foreign 'Nothing' (No confidence in the album he seems) ? In France, Polydor made a great promo for radio stations and Records Stores ? I think it was released WITHOUT the sticker and with or without the press-kit under two promotional sleeves ? In Germany, 'Nothing' ? so Metronome uses the french 7" promotion and for to create a difference it adds to the label the sticker on back of the sleeve ? Of course this is my point of view ? only ! ? I 'm curious to see one day the gold label ? with or without the sticker ? ???
