Walker's recording of "I Still See You" failed to chart, his first to miss the UK Singles Chart since the Walker Brothers' début "Pretty Girls Everywhere" in 1965.
The single is notable for including one of Walker's few non-album b-sides, "My Way Home". Scott Walker did not record another original composition for another seven years. The production and musical direction of the b-side was also credited to John Franz and Bob Cornford respectively.
