The song would later find its way onto West 's fifth studio album , My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy along with two other GOOD Friday songs . The version on the album was altered production @-@ wise and was longer , and featured a sample of Manfred Mann Earth Band 's song " You Are – I Am " . The song was released with two covers , one with a famous photo of a model vomiting red nail polish , taken by Guy Bourdin ; and the other containing the same image , with dimmed lighting and obscured by thick red letters .
