Track listings

"Why Do You Love Me" was augmented with several bonus tracks cut from the album sessions. The sparse, simple "Nobody Can Win" contrasted the dense, funky "Space Can Come Through Anyone" which was co-produced by Dust Brothers member John King. Bass parts on "Space Can Come Through Anyone" were performed by Justin Meldal-Johnsen and additional drums by Matt Chamberlain. An additional b-side, a cover version of The Ramones "I Just Wanna Have Something To Do", was recorded in Ocean Way Studios, Nashville, in May 2002, for the We're a Happy Family: A Tribute to Ramones tribute album. Bass was performed by Daniel Shulman, while additional backing vocals were provided by Vig's then-partner Beth Halper. A guitar-led arrangement of the band's Beautiful Garbage single "Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!)" appeared exclusively on the DVD single.
