Hard driving rocker with passionate lyric (Time 3:58)
I'm Gonna Do It My Way I'm Gonna Do It My Way

Upbeat ballad, crossing the styles of Eric Carmen, Harry Nilsson, Roy Orbison, and Tony Orlando all in one sweeping blow. (Time 4:04)

Another protest song - different topic - little more melodic but still upbeat. (Time 4:34)
You Stole My Heart You Stole My Heart
Soft ballad, with only piano and strings for instruments (REDONE 11/6/01) (Time 3:50)
