USA Promo CD [Dreamworks PRO-CD-5114]
Waltz #2(XO) was never released as a commercial single in the US but this promo CD was released to promote the XO album. It comes in a standard jewel case and has two versions of the song: the LP version and an edit. The front and back artwork are the same as the UK pressing of the single. The back artwork and the CD itself mention it being a promotional copy and not for sale. Based on the info from the 7" single, the photo is by Chris Buck and the design is by Francesca Restrepo/Design Palace.

Europe CD [Dreamworks DRD 22347]
This European pressing of the CD single looks to be very similar to the UK pressing. They both come in slimline jewel cases. However, there are some details on the packaging that indicate that it is from France and meant to be a general European pressing. The face of the CD says it was made in the EU. The spine lists the catalog number as DRD 22347 (while the UK pressing adds a dash and says DRD-22347). Also, the little flap of the insert that folds toward the back differs from the UK pressing. This pressing has record label/copyright info on that part while the UK pressing has the songs listed there. The CD itself also has Elliott's name and song titles written much smaller than on the UK pressing. Barcode/matrix info according to Discogs:
- Barcode: 6 00442 23472 0
- Label Code: LC 7266
- Other (France distribution code): UN 104

UK CD [Dreamworks DRMCD-22347]
This CD single is very similar to the European single for Waltz #2 (XO). This one also comes in a slimline jewel case. The details on the CD and packaging indicate that it was made in the UK rather than the EU. The spine adds a dash to the catalog number, it's written as DRMCD-22347 (while the Europe pressing is missing the dash). Also, the little flap of the insert that folds toward the back differs from the Europe pressing. This pressing has the songs listed on that part while the Europe pressing has record label/copyright info there. The CD itself also has Elliott's name and song titles written much larger than on the Europe pressing. Barcode/matrix info according to Discogs:

UK Promo CD [Dreamworks WDRMCD 22347]
This promo CD is one track only and it has the radio edit of Waltz #2(XO). It comes in cardboard sleeve packaging. There is a sticker on either the back or front that lists the release date as November 30, 1998 so the release date either got pushed back from the September date that is listed elsewhere online or September was for the US promo CD and November was for UK releases. More info needed on that. There are at least two different versions of the promo sticker (see photos). The back cover of the sleeve spells Elliott's name with only one T in the production and recording credits. No other pressing of this single makes that mistake. Matrix info according to Discogs:
- Matrix / Runout: WDRMCD22347 : MASTERED BY DOCDATA
- Mastering SID Code: IFPI LA31
- Mould SID Code: ifpi 4B09
