Cuomo lifted the chords for "This Is the Way" from the song "[[Wikipedia:Let Me Love You (Mario song)|Let Me Love You]]" by mononymous R&B singer [[Wikipedia:Mario (singer)|Mario]]. "This is the Way" was previously unheard prior to the release of ''[[Alone: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo|Alone]]''. Some of the song's verse melody appears to have been repurposed for the song "[[I See Colors]]" off of ''[[The Space Between Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]]''. "This Is the Way" also appeared on the digital demo compilation ''[[Alone X: The Red-Raditude-Hurley Years]]'' in [[2020]]. This version is the same recording, albeit with a slightly later fade-out. | Cuomo lifted the chords for "This Is the Way" from the song "[[Wikipedia:Let Me Love You (Mario song)|Let Me Love You]]" by mononymous R&B singer [[Wikipedia:Mario (singer)|Mario]].
