Indigo- Indigo is a very deep colour... (From: Bluebeard's Secret)

- Midnight Voices, Scene 1
- This is the opening track Seaford Suite. One of five such scenes, it creates a narrative framework for the whole suite.

- Define loneliness in the absence of conscious self-awareness. But perhaps you don't need friends when you don't know who you are or that you are. (From: Seaford Suite)
- Midnight Voices, Scene 5
- The last track. Earlier themes are reprised and our friend Andy makes an uneasy peace with his predicament. The album slowly fades out . . . (From: Seaford Suite)
- Due Process
- Robot Metal Poetry – on Death Row. Part of Bear Songs, this demo track sees the Crowbard experimenting with different ways of sending words and music down the Green Mile . . .
- Kings River
- Rivers tell stories – stories full of yearning, stories that wear down stone. Sometimes, these tales have a fulfilling ending. You be the judge, in this Bear Song.
- The 16th Portrait of Despair
- Neil Gaiman wrote 15 portraits of despair. Here's the 16th, based on a true story . . . Another Bear Song.
