Notes
  • A ^"Nothing Else Matters" was a promotional-only release.
  • B ^"Not Strong Enough" single was first released with Brent Smith of Shinedown on vocals in Europe in November 2010. The second version of the single, re-recorded with a different singer, Doug Robb, due to Shinedown's label Atlantic not allowing Smith's vocals to be used on the US radio, was released in the US market in 2011.[23]
