Trivia

• The song "68" was originally called '68 Degrees and Chance of Thunderstorms,' but the rest of the title was dropped. The '68' is a reference to the song being in 6/8 meter. It also refers to the biblical verse in the book of Revelations, chapter 6 verse 8 which talks about a rider named Death that sits upon a pale horse and is given the power to kill one-fourth of the earth using hunger, earthly beasts, and the sword. Also, it is a coincidence that the first song on the CD is titled "68" and the album debuted at #68 on the charts.
