A 12-inch single was also issued, and featured an extended dance version and dub version. "Everywhere" also marked the first CD-single release by the band in most territories. All formats included the b-side "When I See You Again", a track taken from the Tango in the Night album; the 12" format featured an extended mix of "Everywhere", and the CD-single contained bonus tracks "Rhiannon" and "Say You Love Me" from the 1975 album Fleetwood Mac.

 

The video of the song is a visual depiction of the poem, The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes. There are two versions of the video; one features the story with members of the band appearing throughout, while the other doesn't feature the band at all.
