Notes
  • The Canadian release featured an additional track "Juicy" by I Mother Earth, which was added too late to be included on the American release. The Australia/Germany/New Zealand release featured the track "Me vs. Me" by 4Lyn as the 11th track and consequently omitted "Connected for Life" from the Xander Xone.
