Here it is:

As far as I know this is the only non-album track that ever was released on a single b-side. all the others are remixes, demo - or live versions from original album tracks.

If you want to know EVERYTHING about the releases of a-ha check out this:

As far as I can see there's at least one other non-album track, which was a B-side of "Take On Me" and is named "Stop! And Make your mind up".
