"Fingers & Thumbs (Cold Summer's Day)" is a song by British synthpop duo Erasure. The track originally appeared on the soundtrack to the documentary film as the track titled "Cold Summer's Day". Erasure re-recorded the track for their album Erasure with new lyrics. It was released as the second single from the album by Mute Records in the UK and Elektra Records in the United States. The album version is over six minutes long; the single edit removes an extended instrumental section between the second and third choruses.

The song was composed by Vince Clarke and Andy Bell and is an uptempo dance music track. The music video features Bell singing the song as he walks through an amusement park (the actual filming was done in the London Docklands [1]). Upon its release, the song became Erasure's twenty-second consecutive Top 20 hit in the UK singles chart. In Germany the song stopped at number sixty-nine. It was a hit on the U.S. dance charts, peaking at number ten on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in Billboard magazine.

The single's B-side is a cover version of "High Energy" (retitled "Hi NRG"), a 1984 number-one U.S. dance chart hit by Evelyn Thomas.
