I wonder why artists do this?
Today put my Placebo cd in my laptop (without you im nothing) and for the first time in 15 years I discovered it has a hidden track :eek:
I mean the track starts about 10 mins after the last listed track too!
its only when I saw the tracks listed on my music player that I could see it, crazy!

Although i do like Kylie's hidden track on Light Years in which you ahve to rewind back from the first track and you get a song called Password.

Northern Skies plays immediately after the final track and then there's over three minutes of silence before a great acoustic version of Last Request kicks in. I suppose many people will eject the CD before even hearing it.
Best one by a mile - A Crack Up At the Race Riots by Hope of the States (on the Lost Riots album)
Brilliant song.
That was the first hidden track I ever heard, its one of my favourites of the album aswell.
Mew - Nervous
which is:
Mew - New Terrain
played backwards.
Similar thing on Lucy Kaplansky's "Flesh And Bone" cd, start playing track 1 and rewind and you get a cover of "I've Just Seen A Face". The only thing with this method is it doesn't work on all cd players as some just stick at the beginning of track 1.
God bless you and the girls always!!!

P.S. It starts to play like two minutes after the previous song which is the title track.
The only way to hear it is to play the first song on the album, then rewind until it goes into minus numbers and play.
Don't know any other albums that have a secret track at the begining, I know a few where they're after the last track - including another McFly one!
There's a bunch. Wikipedia has a list:

That one really annoys me because I can't get iTunes to import the hidden track, so in my library/phone the album starts with Peter Gunn.
I've actually listened to a few of those and never realised... Although it's not something I search for on CD's I guess.
Yeah i remember that. It's called "Get Over You" if I remember correctly.
