Release
"Light My Fire" is the second and final single taken from Photon. It was released in October 2003 in the UK only on the 'Different Records' label. It was released as a standard 12" vinyl and also as a promotional CD. Both versions contain "Sloughin' Blue" from the band's Umbra album as the second track, perhaps indicating the release was intended to promote the band themselves in Europe rather than a particular album.[2][better source needed]
