Many online sources, particularly databases such as Allmusic [1], list "Serenity Touched" as one song, as well as "Eternal Odyssey Returning". This is due to the formatting of the track list on the CD case back insert, which causes visual ambiguity (the band's MP3.com page also had tracks listed under the incorrect names).
