A remix of the song by the Streets was released, featuring rapper Professor Green.[1] ShortList included the remix in their list of "The 10 best Mike Skinner remixes, B-sides, and rarities", saying: "Skinner and Professor Green featured on a remix of their (actually quite good (or at least not-that-bad)) track ‘Either Way’ and turned it into an absolute belter."[2]
