Track listing
The 1999 special edition includes a bonus disc with five live tracks recorded in South Africa: "Summer of '69", "Back to You", "Can't Stop This Thing We Started", "Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman?", and "Rock Steady". Two of these, "Back to You" and "Rock Steady", also appear on the 2000 single "Inside Out". The 2002 Special Tour Edition bonus disc adds three more live tracks from Slane Castle: "Cloud Number Nine", "I'm Ready", and "Cuts Like a Knife".
These three tracks originate from the DVD release Live at Slane Castle. An alternate edition of the CD, dated 1999 and bearing catalogue number 490 522-2, omits the track "18 Til I Die" and instead includes a hidden track after track 15: "Don't Give Up" by Chicane featuring Bryan Adams, written by Nick Bracegirdle, Bryan Adams, and Ray Hedges. This edition has no bonus disc and was previously available on iTunes but has since been removed.
