Notes

In Europe Arista released quite a large number of single versions from the album Strangers In The Night, so did Portrait in North America. All releases featured one or more versions of the title track, some of them including a version sung in German (titled Fremde in der Nacht). Furthermore Welcome, another track from the same album, was featured on some of these releases.
