[edit] Hidden track
A hidden track, "I Can't Get Through to Myself", can be found in the pregap (by tracking backwards [rewinding] on "Please Forgive Me"; the time on the CD goes into minus numbers, and the hidden track is revealed).
The American CD release does not include the secret track but does include an enhanced section which includes a mini documentary with a live performance of "Babylon", a brief biography, and some web links.
