this is a double disc version. it has a live version of "i just don't know what to do with myself". i'm not sure is this a cover? i heard this song sung by a woman in a movie i think. idunno, but anyway this one i like to.

"I Just Don't Know..." is a cover of a Burt Bacharach song; the White Stripes also did a cover of this on their new (ish) album.

If you like My Aim is True, you should check out This Year's Model, Armed Forces, and Trust. They all built upon the sound of his first album, and blow it out of the water, IMO.
