Notes

A Russian pirated edition exists, coupled with tracks from Shona.

From the liner notes to A Brief History of Ambient Volume 2: "U2's guitarist, scored the Captive soundtrack, a movie virutally unknown in the USA. A 1986 European thriller starring Oliver Red and Irna Brook, the music is co-produced with Michael Brooks [sic], who is the inventor of the "infinite guitar" which the Edge frequently uses on U2's recordings."

"Heroine" is included in So Far... The Best of Sinéad O'Connor and the compilation cd Celtic Moods.
