The version of "Don't Panic" featured on this release and produced by Chris Allison[1] is different from the one that appears on the band's later debut LP, Parachutes.

The fourth track, "High Speed", also produced by Chris Allison[2] made the cut for Parachutes and remained unchanged.

Only 5000 copies of the CD version were manufactured in the original pressing, along with a limited edition 12-inch vinyl release which was individually numbered on the front picture sleeve.

[4] AllMusic journalist MacKenzie Wilson considered The Blue Room to be "well-crafted with lush harmonies", noting that "Martin's harking vocals reflect common dream pop melodies similar to Gene frontman Martin Rossiter", and singled out "Such a Rush" as being "outstanding".

[6] All tracks are written by Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion and Chris Martin.
