Handclaps on "Shake It Off"
^Walden is listed as having played acoustic piano on Track 1; however, no acoustic piano is evident on this track. Conversely, whoever plays the (clearly-audible) acoustic piano on Track 2 is uncredited; it is thus possible that Walden is miscredited with performing the piano on Track 1, when he in fact played it on Track 2.
