History

The Waters of Nazareth single was first released as a twelve-inch vinyl with a demo version of "Let There Be Light" and "Carpates".[1] A second release of both a 12" and CD single includes remixes by DJ Funk, Erol Alkan, and Justice featuring Feadz.

"Waters of Nazareth" and a finished version of "Let There Be Light" later appeared on their 2007 debut album, †.[a]

The song is featured on the ElectroChoc radio station on Grand Theft Auto IV.

"Waters of Nazareth" also appears in Travis Rice's critically acclaimed snowboard film That's It, That's All, as well as in the 2016 film War Dogs.
