The Way/Solitaire

"The Way"/"Solitaire" is the second commercial double A-side CD single by Clay Aiken released on March 16, 2004, on the RCA label. The record peaked at number four on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified platinum.

In the summer of 2004, a cover of Neil Sedaka's "Solitaire" replaced "This Is the Night" as the bonus track on new versions of Aiken's album, Measure of a Man.

"The Way" was featured in Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (2004).
