'Wild world' was originally written by Cat Stevens (as advertised on the sleeve of this single). He recorded it on his fourth album 'Tea for the Tillerman' in 1970.
Jimmy Cliff's version, released a few months before Stevens released the original version, reached number 8 on the UK Singles Chart. Surprisingly, Stevens' version was not released as a single in the UK.
