The album was due for release right after the 9/11- 2001 attack on the twin towers, so the track "NYC Cops" was originally pulled from the release due to the chorus of "New York City Cops/ New York City Cops/ They ain't that smart". So, some versions have "When it Started" instead, but the original track listing included "NYC Cops."
