An alternate version of the cover of "Going Underground" can also be heard on the compilation Punk the Clock, Vol. 3. Also, exclusive live versions of "4:AM Forever" were made available for download along with "Every Song" and "Never Know" on 16 April 2007.[1]

In an interview on Popworld, Ian Watkins stated that the song was called "4:AM Forever" because 4:AM is the hour in the night that most people die, known as "the witching hour".[2]
