Paul Morley: “…with Frankie, ‘Relax’, Frankie already had that image ‘cos a friend of their had done it (Anne Yvonne Gilbert). I wanted to put a pornographic novel on the back of the 12″. I remember reading it out to Holly back then because they wanted to know what was going on, I know it sounds daft because everyone just assumes I did it behind their back. So I had to read out this pornographic novel to Holly and you could see he was slightly confused that the record company was telling him that this pornography was going on his single! (laughs) Well I think he was more worried about this causing him to not make any sales than the record company!”

A word on the ‘Sex Mix’ and the differences between the three 12″ mixes of ‘Relax’:
All 12″ copies of ‘Relax’ have the same cover and labels – apart from the reissued 16.24 minute ‘Sex mix’ (re-titled ‘Original’ mix). The only way to tell them apart is by the length of the mix and the run out stamp on the inner vinyl groove.
The ‘Sex Mix’ is the original 16.24 mix which bares little relation to the single version at all and is more of a jam session with all the various parts and samples. This has 1U near the end of the run out stamp.

The ‘Sex Mix’ (edition 2) is approx 8.40 mins long and is a shorter edit of the ‘Sex Mix’ – run out stamp 2U.

The ‘New York Mix / US Remix / US Mix / New York Night Mix’ – it has many names – is approx 7.20 mins and is the one most people know and think of as the ‘Sex Mix’. It bares the most relation to the regular single as the second half of it is basically the hit version, preceded by a long synth-led instrumental version – run out stamp 4U.

The ‘Original Mix’ is a reissue of the 16.24 min ‘Sex Mix’, post-No.1 hit and comes in a grey ZTT house bag rather than the 2 bodies picture cover all the others come in. Run out stamp 5U.

"Relax" is the debut single by Frankie Goes to Hollywood, released in the UK by ZTT Records in 1983.
The song was later included on the album Welcome to the Pleasuredome (1984).

Although fairly inauspicious upon initial release, "Relax" finally reached number one on the UK singles chart on 24 January 1984, ultimately becoming one of the most controversial and most commercially successful records of the entire decade. The single eventually sold a reported 2 million copies in the UK alone, making it the seventh best-selling single in the UK Singles Chart's history.

Following the release of the group's second single, "Two Tribes", "Relax" rallied from a declining UK chart position during June 1984 to climb back up the UK charts and re-attain number-two spot behind "Two Tribes" at number one, representing simultaneous chart success by a single act unprecedented since the early 1960s.

Upon release in the United States in late 1984, "Relax" repeated its slow UK progress, reaching number 67 upon initial release, but eventually reaching number 10 in March 1985.

The song won Best British Single at the 1985 Brit Awards.

The song was used in the films Body Double, Police Academy, Gotcha!, Bony a klid, Zoolander and The Proposal. It was featured in an episode of Miami Vice, in The Simpsons episode "Homer the Smithers" and in the video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Saints Row: The Third, and a 2009 television advertisement for Virgin Atlantic, marking 25 years since the company's foundation.
