7. '''"Heart's Rain" 心雨 (Xīn Yǔ)'''
:This track resembles Jay Chou's other softer, more depressed songs. Violin, cello and piano are used in the background music, while the vocals are gentle and at a relatively slow pace. The lyrics express the feelings of the author as he describes someone who has left him, using raindrops as a metaphor for his emotion.

9. '''"Rosemary" 迷迭香 (Mídiéxiāng)'''
:The musical style resembles that of [1930]s China, introduced from the West as [[Bossa Nova]], with the usage of violin, cello and guitar to provide a classical feeling. The lyrics describe the lyricist's sexual attraction towards a woman, with details on physical appearances such as hip curvature, lip shape, and flirtative behaviour.

10. '''"Chrysanthemum Terrace" 菊花台 (Júhuā Tái)'''
:This track was the ending theme for the film, ''[[Curse of the Golden Flower]]''. It incorporated "Chinese Wind" style music, with the use of [[guzheng]], while incorporating other instruments such as violin and cello, with a relatively slow pace. Unlike his other songs, Jay sings this track using comparatively clearer pronunciation of words. The lyrics are strongly poetic, using [[Chrysanthemum]]s as a metaphor for love, where the Chorus line "菊花殘 滿地傷 你的笑容已泛黃" (Chrysanthemums broken, scattered across the floor, your smile has faded) refers to the sorrow which arises after love ends and loneliness begins.
