It was a new song recorded for the compilation and was released on 24 May 2004, reaching number 23 on the UK Singles Chart. B-side "We Dream of This" was built around "Kiss of Life" played backwards. CD2 was an Enhanced CD with the video for "Kiss of Life" and "Rob's Guide to Responsible Flying", a small section of footage from the Supergrass Is 10 documentary (released with the DVD version of the compilation), showing keyboard player Rob Coombes smoking illegally in an aeroplane toilet.
