  1. ↑ "Sweet Child o' Mine" is 3:49 long. At the 4:27 mark another track – called "Subway Ride" – which mentions the impeachment of President Bill Clinton, begins and runs for just over 4 minutes.

On earlier versions of the album the track "Crash and Burn" contains the hidden track "Subway Ride", running 11:19, while omitting "Sweet Child o' Mine".[14] Another version eliminates both "Subway Ride" and "Sweet Child o' Mine".[15] The version of "Sweet Child o' Mine" included is the 'Rick Rubin New Mix', originally featured on the Big Daddy soundtrack and later included on Hits & Rarities, and also called the 'Pop Version' on the CD single. It differs from the 'Rock Version' used in the single music video. The European version features "Resuscitation" (Crow, Trott) as the twelfth track; the Japanese version contains the bonus tracks "Carolina" and "Resuscitation" (Crow, Trott). The Australian tour edition of the album (released in 1999) contains "Resuscitation", "Sweet Child o' Mine", and a bonus CD containing six songs recorded live at the Church of the Holy Trinity in Toronto, Canada on November 13, 1998:
