Notes
  1. "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgMzriO93-Y" is the track title as it appears on the album – a URL to a YouTube video on the band's official channel, entitled "Dance Party", which features the group dancing to "A cause des garçons" by Yelle. Track 10 is no longer found at the listed URL and instead can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgMzriO93-Y when Youtube started using HTTPS, however that remains the official name of the song album. For searching purposes, this track is commonly referred to as Dance Party.
