As early as February 10, 2001, Manson had made indications that the song would be chosen as the album's third single.[2][3] The third single was released in physical format on September 3, 2001 in the UK, and on October 6, 2001 in the US.[4][5][6]
A remixed version of the song, called "Wormwood Remix", would later appear in the 2001 Johnny Depp film From Hell,[7] and had an accompanying music video with footage from the film. Also, despite its usage of harsh vocals, the band has performed an acoustic version of the song, which appeared as a bonus track on the UK edition of Holy Wood.
In 2016, both the Holy Wood original and 2005 Against All Gods Mix versions of the song were used by TNA professional wrestling stable Decay (Abyss, Crazzy Steve, and Rosemary), the original version as arena entrance music and the Against All Gods Mix for taped music video vignettes.[citation needed]
