Where's The Love was Hanson's second single off of Middle of Nowhere. While the song got many spins on American radio, the song was never released as a commercial single. There are, however, several collectible versions overseas.

Notice that Hanson are positioned under the "an" in the name "Hanson."

UK
# 314 574 905-2
Release Date: 1997
Two of two "part 1" WTL CDs released by the UK. This CD has the "orange" UK MON cover on the back. Notice
that the song information is arranged in a completely different way than the first release. The CD itself
is different as well (ex. the word "hanson" at the top, the white in the flower is smaller).
The CD has the same four tracks as the previous release, but Madeline is spelled correctly here. (Really, it is, even though
you can't see it because of the "Made in England" sticker!) Notice that Hanson
are now standing under "son" in the name "Hanson," and there is a small "CD1" printed in the lower
left hand corner.
Tracks:
1. Where's The Love (Radio Edit)
2. Madeline (live)
3. Man From Milwaukee (live)
4. Where's The Love (Album Version)

Australia
# 314 568 151-2
Release Date: 1997
This version from Australia looks like its cousin from the UK, but it is different
in two ways. 1) It has a cardboard slipcase instead of a plastic case. 2) It has the Berman Brothers
Mix of WTL instead of Look At You.

2. Where's The Love (Berman Brothers Mix)

Australia Collector's Edition - CD1
# 314 574 867-2
Release Date: 1997
All kinds of stories can be told about the Aussie Collector's Edition of Where's The Love.
From how I understand it, first there was an edition with a clear spine that said "2CD Collector's Edition."
When fans bought it, they complained when there was only one CD in the case instead of two. Another issue
was released with a black spine (at left), with the sticker "CD1 ONLY" on the front. CD2 had to be bought separately
(below). I am pretty sure that's how the story goes - that's a lot of hype for a CD single!
The fun thing about Where's The Love (and you'll see later on that other Aussie singles do this) is that it promotes
the previous single as well. There are some remixes from MMMBop found on these WTL singles that can't be found on any
other retail single.
CD1 Tracks:
1. Where's The Love (Radio Edit)
2. Look At You
3. MMMBop (Bass Mix Radio Version)
4. MMMBop (Old School Remix)

Australia Collector's Edition - CD2
# 314 574 865-2
Release Date: 1997
CD2 of the Collector's Edition had to be bought separately, at a later date.
The CD came in a cardboard sleeve, but you could put it in CD1's case, since it
could hold two CDs.

1. Where's The Love (Radio Edit)
2. Look At You
3. MMMBop (New Jack Remix - Main Pass)
4. MMMBop (Bass Club Mix)
5. MMMBop (Live at the Hard Rock)

France - Promo
# 3652
Extremely rare Where's The Love promo CD from France. The front cover art is very unique and not issued on
any other release. Notice, though, that Zac's hand that is making the "peace sign" is 'cut off' by some sort of white box.
It looks like the 'Where's the Love' graphic under 'Hanson' overlapped the photo of Hanson and cut off Zac's hand. Don't know
how they didn't notice that before it went to print... ;-)
Tracks:
1. Where's The Love (Radio Edit)

Australia - Promo
No Catalog Number
VERY rare Australian mastering promo for Where's The Love - a remix of Where's The Love, at that. The date the CD was pressed is on the front cover. I'm not entirely sure why this CD was pressed by "Sony Music Mastering" and not Mercury. It makes me wonder (slightly) about its validity.
Tracks:
1. Where's The Love (Berman Brothers Radio Mix)

Extremely rare promo CD from The Philippines with cover art not seen on any other releases.
The CD most likely has one track, probably the Radio Edit.
A unique release - very few Hanson CDs were made in the Philippines.
