Notes

• The name "H.T" has been theorized to be an abbreviation for "Humanoid Typhoon," but this has never been confirmed.
• The song's name is often misspelled as "H.T.", adding a second "." after the T, as seen on Spicy Stewed Donut's album packaging.

• 

  Misspelled title on Spicy Stewed Donut's album back cover and booklet.

• Trigun: Spicy Stewed Donut incorrectly gives the song the name "Hard Target" by online music databases, including Gracenote. This name is not printed in the album packaging and the origin of this name is unknown.

• 

  Metadata for the CD fetched by iTunes from the Gracenote Music Database, giving the incorrect name "Hard Target" for track 1.
