The Australia cardboard picture sleeve and the New Zealand picture sleeve for this single, though they both feature exactly the same artwork (with "Made in Australia" on the rear), they have some differences in the size, texture, and die-cutting. The most obvious differences are:
- The Australia sleeve measures about 18.0 mm x 17.7 mm.
- The New Zealand sleeve measures about 18.4 mm x 18.1 mm.
- The glue flaps on the Australia sleeve are part of the front sleeve (glued to the rear sleeve).
- The glue flaps on the New Zealand sleeve are part of the rear sleeve (glued to the front sleeve).
