Australia miss pressing

The "Call Me When You're Sober" single has had a bit of embarrassment in Australia and New Zealand. The spine of the single incorrectly spells the title of the track, misspelling the word "You're" by leaving out the 'e'; making "you'r". Also the band name "Evanescence" is spelled as "Evanesence". The single has now been re-released with the correct spelling, and is for sale at most Australian CD shops now, although some shops in Australia and New Zealand are still selling the original version. Both versions have the same catalog number.
