** "Sandrevan Lullaby/Lifestyles" is split between a warm, guitar-based piece that lives up to the "lullaby" part, and a more traditional Rodriguez song, this time in a minor key, about society falling apart at the seams. Somehow, these two parts are incredibly effective and moving when put together.

** There are two versions of "I'll Slip Away", but the one on the bonus track version of ''Coming From Reality'' is the definitive one - a TearJerker of a song about disappearing into the ether after life has screwed the protagonist one too many times. Rodriguez' dejected vocal just puts the cap on it.

** "Sugar Man," as songs about drugs go, could give Music/JeffersonAirplane's "White Rabbit" a run for its money. The production goes for broke with the spacey effects and reverb as the protagonist gets his fix, and fittingly, at the end, he just starts all over again as the song fades out.
** [[LongTitle "This Is Not A Song, It's An Outburst: Or, The Establishment Blues"]] is Rodriguez' take on ThreeChordsAndTheTruth. Just Rodriguez chugging away at a few chords while he rants in a bitter monotone about corrupt politicians, misogyny, crime, pollution and the general CrapsackWorld he lives in.

** "Cause" is the last song Rodriguez recorded before his career fell apart in the 70s, and it's a beautiful song, with the strings adding a lot of warmth, about the aforementioned CrapsackWorld taking him down in the end.

Rodriguez didn't become a huge cult figure for nothing; he had more knockout songs on a mere two albums than most other {{Singer Songwriter}}s can dream about.

** "I Wonder," and its EpicRiff of a bassline, is a mercilessly sardonic breakup song.
** "Crucify Your Mind" is also a breakup song, but it takes a more defeated tone, with a more melodic arrangement.
