You Don't Fool Me became the fifth and final single from the Made In Heaven album in November 1996. A minor hit for the band, it nevertheless became a club favourite; fitting, considering the only footage used to promote the single was Mark Szaszy's short film You Don't Fool Me (see below), originally made for the Made In Heaven: The Films project.

Whilst a new, slightly censored edit was employed to promote the song when it was broadcast on television, another extended edit was made to accompany the Dancing Divaz Club Mix of the song as a promo only. This version, to date, remains officially unreleased, though the television edit was included on Greatest Flix III in 1999.

You Don't Fool Me

You Don't Fool Me was directed by Mark Szaszy, and is a contemporary tale of androgyny in Western society, and features a young couple making love in the woods, and flashbacks to the moment they met in a bustling nightclub.

This film was one of only two made for the project that was used to promote a single, and as such an alternate edit was included on the Greatest Flix III VHS in 1999, and another extended edit was made to accompany the Dancing Divaz Club Mix of the song when the single was released two years earlier.

Szaszy continues to make documentaries, and also directed several music videos for Oasis.
