## Research gaps <!--research_gaps-->
| observation | domain | state | detail | source |
| ----------- | ------------- | -------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------- |
| au-2cd-pack | identity | unknown | Discogs has no entry of its own for the pack; its barcode and pairing are recorded only in the notes of the No Regrets release. The pack's own catalogue number and release date are not recorded there. | ^discogs |
| au-2cd-pack | identity | disputed | Discogs dates the No Regrets disc 1991; Wikipedia gives 23 March 1992 as the Australian release of Life Is a Highway on CD and cassette, citing The ARIA Report, so the pack cannot predate that release if it holds an Australian copy. | ^wiki-liah |
| au-2cd-pack | markets | unknown | A web search for 724388022002 on 2026-09-24 found no retailer or Amazon listing of the pack; Glitter Records in Brisbane lists the No Regrets disc alone under its own barcode 724388022026, with Discogs data. | ^glitter |
| au-2cd-pack | relationships | unknown | No source names the licensee of GS1 prefix 0724388; the length of EMI's prefix is not established. | |
| au-2cd-pack | images | unknown | No licensed photograph of the pack is on file; the Discogs images carry no reuse licence. | ^discogs |

note: Identity settled from the notes of Discogs release 871964, which name barcode 724388022002 as the pack barcode for the No Regrets and Life Is A Highway singles; the 2009 Barcodepedia page names the same two titles and "2 CD". MusicBrainz, Open Food Facts and Wikidata hold no record of the barcode.

## About <!--about-->
This barcode belongs to an Australian pack that sold two CD singles by Canadian musician Tom Cochrane together: "No Regrets" (Capitol 8802202) and "Life Is A Highway".[^discogs] Neither disc prints this number; each keeps its own barcode, and the pack carries 724388022002.[^discogs] The No Regrets disc holds the title song, "Get Back Up" and a live "Lunatic Fringe" recorded at Massey Hall, Toronto, in 1991, and was manufactured and distributed by EMI Music Group Australasia on the Capitol label.[^discogs] The Life Is A Highway disc pairs the title song with "Emotional Truth" and another live "Lunatic Fringe".[^discogs-liah]
Both songs come from Cochrane's second studio album, Mad Mad World (1991).[^wiki-mmw] "Life Is a Highway" was a number-one hit in Canada, reached number two in Australia and New Zealand in 1992 and was released in Australia on CD and cassette on 23 March 1992; "No Regrets" peaked at number three in Canada.[^wiki-liah] The 2009 Barcodepedia page listed the barcode as "Tom Cochrane - Life Is A Highway / No Regrets", a 2 CD item.[^bp2009]
