 The Carpenters remixed the song with additional orchestration for the B-side of the 1977 "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" single, revising the lyrics to read "I can't laugh and I can't sleep/I don't even talk to people I meet".A version on Manilow's greatest hits box set, "The Complete Collection and Then Some...", contains a slightly different version to the previously released version.The song was recorded in 1976 by the Carpenters and released on their May 1976 album, "A Kind of Hush".
