2. On the "Ice Cold Ice" EP is a live song called "Medley". What songs make up that medley?

Answer: Reoccuring Dreams/The Wit & The Wisdom/What's Going On/Green Eyes

To be precise it's "Reoccuring Dreams/The Wit & The Wisdom/Reoccuring Dreams/What's Going On". The song fades out on the first verse of "Green Eyes".
