The first single from a-ha's forthcoming album "Foot Of The Mountain" is the title track. It was released to Norwegian radio stations on 24 April 2009 and available for download only in Norway from 4 May 2009. The single was released in Austria, Germany and Switzerland on 22 May; Denmark on 25 May and was available as a UK iTunes download on 13 July. Germany was the only country which got a physical release.

The cover of the European release is largely black and white with a hint of red. It features a shot of the band (Magne, Morten, Paul) standing outside. A new style a-ha logo is printed in large white letters at the top, right hand side of the sleeve, with the title in white letters at the bottom. The sleeve has a white border around the edge. It features two tracks, the "Radio Edit" (3:44) and the " Album Version" (3:57).

 

The German two track promo comes with a paper insert. The front is similar to the regular release, whilst the reverse is white with black text, including track information plus the text "Not for Sale - For Promotion Only". It features the same tracks as the regular German release.

There is a one track UK promo CD single which features the "Radio Edit". The front cover is similar to the regular European release, but is a folded paper insert without a white border around the edge. The back sleeve is white with black text. "A-Ha 'Foot Of The Mountain Radio Edit" is printed at the top with "Promo Copy Only - Not For Resale Released 6th July 2009" underneath plus additional copyright text and The Universal Music Record Label logo. It comes in a vinyl, envelope style wallet. The disc is a CD-R with a black sticker and text in white "A-Ha Foot Of THe Mountain For Promotional Use Only. Not For Sale". A unique(?) number is printed in black on a white strip and on the back sleeve (e.g. "369" and "323" are known to exist). Some copies of the promo come with a large orange sticker stuck on the back of the PVC wallet with some facts and UK contact details at Hesso Media.

The UK iTunes download includes four mixes of the song: Radio Edit (3:44); Album Edit (3:57); Erik Ljunggren Remix (4:49) and Bohème 7" Remix (6.59), but there is no cover art with the download.
