Industry promotional releases

US radio singles

3 singles were produced for the United States radio scene. One containing the [Band Version (No Strings)] mix with a distinctively different cover, and the other containing the [Band Version (Guitars Down)] mix with the standard artwork. Both also contain the album version of the track. The last one has no special artwork on the CD itself although comes with 3 tracks (no other WUJC release has ever come with 3 tracks) rather than 2 tracks like the other "My Immortal" promos or 1 track only like all the other WUJC singles.

No strings version

Cat.no: WUJC20081-2

Black screened CD with orange and white artwork came in a standard jewel case containing an insert with only the My Immortal Logo on the front and full artwork on the back. Only a few hundred of these discs exist.

Cat.no: WUJC20090-2

CDR with black print came in a standard jewel case containing an insert with only the My Immortal Logo on the front and full artwork on the back. Sightings are extremely rare because only a few were printed as a "test printing" at Wind-up, and it was later decided that two versions of the "My Immortal" WUJC would be printed instead. Probably less than 10 copies exist.

European radio promo

Status: Out of Print
Label: Wind-up/Epic
Cat.no: SAMPCS 13544 1

This release is a radio promo, but was slightly available to consumers (sometimes mistaken as UK CD 2). It looks the same as the international consumer single, sans a barcode and with different tracks. About 500 of these discs exist.

  1. "My Immortal" [Band version (No strings)][1]
  2. "My Immortal" [Band version (Guitars down)][2]
  3. "My Immortal" [Album version]

[1]This version was rumored to be used on harder rock radio stations where a major string arrangement would be inappropriate. There are strings on the track, but they don't appear until after the guitar section of the song.
[2]This Version is almost identical to the band version, however the guitar track in the song is muted by about half. This was rumored to be used on radio stations where a heavy guitar track would be inappropriate.
