Notes

  • (The German title here indicates the name of the song on "FreuD euch", even if the song is a cover of an English song, for example The Velvet Underground's song "Sunday Morning")
  • The English versions use the original German backing tracks, except for "Barbed Wire" which is a new version based on "Stacheldraht".
  • "Gloria Halleluja Amen", "Geburt", "Elefantengott Jai Ganesh" and "Pank" were omitted; "Born to Die in Berlin" and "Shiva" are new songs.
