"Throw It All Away" was the second single, released on May 15, 2006. "Thistles" (with Furler on vocals) and "Inaminute" (instrumental) were included as B-sides.

"The Garden" is produced by Sam Hardaker and Henry Binns and mixed by Phill Brown. It features vocal performances by José González (on tracks "Futures", "Left Behind", "Today" and "Crosses"), Sia Furler (on "Throw It All Away", "The Pageant of the Bizarre", "You're My Flame", "This Fine Social Scene" and "If I Can't Have You", and "Waiting to Die") and Henry Binns.
