The new songs from the album were: "I'd do anything for love (But I won't do that)" "Life is a lemon and I want my money back" "Objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are" "Everything louder than everything else" "Back into Hell" "Rock and roll dreams come through" was given a new verse (I still think "Out of the frying pan" needed a third verse, btw) "Good girls go to heaven (Bad girls go everywhere)" was given a new intro, and generally a darker tone I can see why Wolf thinks the original versions are better, especially where "Good girls" are concerned, but I think the Bat 2 versions just sound more...polished?
