3. Semisonic -- also Khurana's TLDR that was removed in final edits

4. Harvard -- but little known fact, this little logistical ditty was the original bridge of "Closing Time"!

6. Semisonic -- Also removed in Khurana's final edits when the weather got warmer

7. Harvard -- but if you sing it to the tune of “Closing Time” you can hardly tell a difference!
