On non-US versions, there is an exclusive (Opal) mix.

The UK 12" release is also not marked with a Halo number.

Remixes of "[[Terrible Lie]]" are the B-Sides for this single, as well as the two remixes and a demo of "[[Down In It (song)|Down In It]]" that appeared on the ''[[Down In It (halo)|Down In It]]'' single and a demo that only appears on the ''Head Like A Hole'' single itself. The US Maxi version is actually longer in duration than ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]]'' while the UK Single is standard size. On the UK version, there is an (Opal) mix which doesn't appear on the US version. Also the first track, the (Clay) mix which was used for the "[[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]]" video is mislabeled as the (Slate) mix which is the first track on the US maxi-single but doesn't appear on the UK single version.
