The album received new cover art and an overall tune up for the later Atlantic version (as well as iTunes bonus tracks), the key differences between particular songs can amount to being anywhere from very minimal to entirely different recordings: | |||
*Good Day: Vocal Introduction at the beginning contains more than 2 voices. The part at the end beginning with “I thought you knew I knew” is much slower.<ref name=thepineappletomorrow>[https://www.tumblr.com/dashboard/blog/thepineappletomorrow/102819471700 complete list of things what were changed for the 2008 release. thepineappletomorrow.

*A noticeable change for “Two Wuv” is that when the words “you dressed up like a bee” are sung, there is a faint buzzing sound to emphasize the joke in the wording. For whatever reason, this was removed from the ’08 release (perhaps considered too silly or obvious). The drums are also considered to be louder throughout.<ref name=thepineappletomorrow></ref> | *A noticeable change for “Two Wuv” is that when the words “you dressed up like a bee” are sung, there is a faint buzzing sound to emphasize the joke in the wording.

*“The Ruler of Everything” (along with its intro “13”) is, at the beginning, slightly lower in pitch than the older release. The lowering of pitch was caused by slightly slowing the song, according to Joe Hawley. The change was made, possibly to create a more ominous initial impression of the song. The silence and ambient wave sounds at the end are also extended, so that there is a longer wait time before “Hidden in the Sand” starts playing. | *“The Ruler of Everything” (along with its intro “13”) is, at the beginning, slightly lower in pitch than the older release.

Physical changes: | |||
*In the original pressing of the 2005 version, there are a few mistakes in the packaging. The Zubin-page in the lyric sheets was colored purple instead of blue and the spine of the CD had a typographical error. It read: "Marvin's Marvelous Mechan<u>ci</u>al Museum" as opposed to "Mechan<u>ic</u>al". Both of these errors were fixed for the 2006 re-release.<ref name=thepineappletomorrow></ref> | |||
