This reads a lot like a review of the CD, more than an encyclopedia entry Earl Andrew 05:37, 9 Mar 2004 (UTC)

I very much agree :P I wrote this when I was very very new to Wikipedia. I'll rewrite it, I promise :) Sarge Baldy 09:01, Mar 9, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Orchestral Intro on White Flag

Does anyone know if those few seconds at the beginning were written for the song, or lifted from elsewhere? - Darkhawk

[edit] A Bonus Track

I've heard of a bonus track on some editions or promos. Can anyone confirm this and name the song?

[edit] =answer

The 12th (last) track on LIFE FOR RENT is a "bonus track", it seems; I am not sure of the name but it seems a continuation of 11th track. I found it by accident after seeing what appeared as a scratch on CD, which I assumed caused the 2-3 minutes of silence. Today, after splicing the tracks together I found realised that it may have been a "bonus track."

Enjoy!

Yes, the song "Closer" follows "See the Sun". The minutes of silence are deliberate, though they irritate me greatly. By the by, I just noticed it's not on the "List of albums containing hidden tracks". Adding that now. Octavo 04:55, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Closer

Closer is the bonus/hidden track, but what's the background of this song? It doesn't sound like a high quality studio recording to me. Does anyone know?

[edit] copy protection

does it contain sony's rootkit thing?
