Secret Songs on CDs: The Lost Art of Hidden Tracks 

If you have the CD version of Queens of the Stone Age’s Songs for the Deaf, there is a hidden track before track 1 titled "The Real Song for the Deaf". The song is literally a bassy drone.

CDs with 99 tracks, with some or only the last one being a song. This made it impossible to play the album on shuffle on my Sony anti skip Walkman.

My favorite way to discover hidden tracks was falling asleep to an album and being woken up by a new song mid dream. And then wondering if its real for a second, or if youre still asleep

I had heard that the 12 tracks of silence on Korn's "Follow the Leader" was to have 60 seconds of silence for Justin, a kid who's dying wish was to meet the band.

the fact that you ended the video with a hidden track is perfect

Sixteen dollars for a CD? Man, I remember them being almost twenty. I went to buy Metallica's Ride the Lightening when I was a teenager in the late 90's and it was almost twenty dollars...for an album that was already considered old then. Something Lars never really talks about if Napster gets brought up in interviews is just how hard it was to pull money together for even a single album back then if you were a kid.

I kind of miss this era.

Back in the day if I saw Beck's Odelay in the CD Jukeboxes I always played the hidden track and waited.

Disturbed used pregap space on The Sickness album. It contains an intro to the next song. It was just before Down With The Sickness.

I remember getting the Gorillaz self titled album and being so disappointed that every song didn’t sound like Clint Eastwood. Now it’s one of my favorite albums.

My friends and I had just finished listening to Weird Al's "Off the Deep End" CD one afternoon, but nobody got up to hit stop, so the CD just kept going, running for something like an extra 11 minutes on the last track. All of a sudden, ten minutes after we thought the album ended, there was this burst of noise: instruments crashing, drums and cymbals being beaten haphazardly, and Al yelling incoherently into the microphone for a few seconds. Scared the absolute bejeezus out of us, because it came out of nowhere, and we had no idea. Yeah, he parodied Nirvana so hard with that album that he included his own "Endless Nameless"-style hidden track at the end of it. :) But the award for the greatest one of these has got to go to Monty Python, whose comedy LP "Matching Tie and Handkerchief" was double-grooved on one side. Depending on where you dropped the needle, you could have gotten the side which was advertised on the sleeve, or you could have gotten an entirely different set of sketches which were not advertised at all. These clever wankers hid AN ENTIRE THIRD SIDE OF A RECORD on an LP. :)

Born in 1984 here, so you were probably just starting high school around the time I was graduating. I absolutely remember getting a new CD and being disappointed on how most of the tracks were bad, or at least not up to our expectations. I was in my early teens in the latter half of the '90s, and distinctly recall my friends and I really liking certain one-hit-wonder rock songs that we heard off 105.7 The Edge or saw on MTV, and then bought the albums with our paper route money. Bands like Chumbawumba, Marcy Playground, Butthole Surfers, and Cake fell into the camp of bands where we enjoyed maybe 1-2 songs max, but didn't care for the rest of the album.

Speaking of pregaps, there are also those where you had to manually rewind from track 1 to reach a hidden track 0. An example I know was "Me White Noise (Darklife)" featuring Phil Daniels on Blur's 2003 album "Think Tank".

From what I understand, the reason "Her Majesty" was tacked on at the end of "Abbey Road" is that there was a standing order to not throw away any Beatles recordings. Due to that order the Engineer put the song at the end of the album. [Added] Paul McCartney heard it and liked it there, so there it stayed. BTW, on the album "As Time Goes By" by the Carpenters there's a gap of silence (about 20 seconds per Disclogs) after the last-listed track followed by the hidden track "And When He Smiles", a live performance from a TV show. On the Japanese version of the album the track is not listed in the track list but is mentioned as a hidden track in the liner notes. However, on the later-released U. S. version the track is listed as a [Hidden] track.

My first hidden track experience was "All By Myself" from Green Day DOOKIE, in 1994.

slipknot's first album features the band watching scat porn and having chocolate pudding ruined for them. then they do another song. also rob zombie ends sinister urge with unholy 2.

I’m Gen Z with Gen X parents. And I love collecting CDs, I’ve even “borrowed” some of theirs, it’s the perfect blend of the physical and the digital. And I always love it when I pick up an album I’ve never listened to before has a hidden track or two at the end. It’s like a little Easter Egg for those who listen to the album all the way through.

CDs can hide loads of stuff. Information Society "hid" a text file detailing wild adventure in Brazil in the last track of their 1992 album "Peace and Love, Incorporated". Track is titled "300bps N, 8, 1 (Terminal Mode or Ascii Download)", and is three minutes of "modem noise". If the audio output is decoded through a computer, you get the file. CDs not only had hidden tracks, some had hidden graphics. The 1989(!) release of "The Breathtaking Blue" by German group Alphaville included images and lyrics for every song, only accessible when played in something like a karaoke machine or video game console that supported CD+G, like the Sega Saturn, TurboGrafx CD, Atari Jaguar, or 3DO.

That Lauryn Hill album was fire how dare u say u dont care about it

There was an hour long secret track on Hank 3's "Straight to Hell" album that was one of the most bizare things I've ever heard.

I have the distinct memory of the X-files tv show soundtrack where the liner notes announce that Nick Cave would like you to know about Track 0. You have to rewind on the first song for about 10 minutes to find it though. The band 311 had their instrumental entrance music on the negative space before Transistor starts. Some CD players weren't supposed to be able to rewind into the negative on the 1st track. 311 eventually released the song on a proper track on their B-sides box set.

Tom Petty included a short track on his 'Full Moon Fever' solo album CD where he gives respect to tape and record buyers as they would have to flip them for side 2. It's a short, but funny inclusion.

Super Furry Animals had a -1 track on one of their albums ‘guerrilla’, where you had to hold down the rewind button from track 1 until you got to the start of track -1

As an Elvis fan the earliest example I’ve heard was from his 1971 album Elvis Country. Elvis himself had the idea to take one song “I was born 10,000 years ago” and hack it up and weave snippets of it between songs (utilizing that dead space). It’s kind of weird. Most CD versions take it out. Another one that comes to mind is Weird Al’s “Off The Deep End”. After a few minutes of silence after the final track it’s just Al screaming his head off.

One of my favourite hidden tracks is Damone by Deftones from their sophomore album Around the Fur. The listed track MX is five minutes long but it is followed by 14 minutes of silence and then you hear a voicemail message of somebody smoking a bong. Then it is followed by 13 minutes of more silence until the drums for Damone kick in. The song actually startles me every time it comes on because I forget that I am listening to an album, but is is a kick ass song that is nearly five minutes long. So the total length of the last song with the hidden track is 37 minutes, taking up half the length of the album.

I was a kid when i first heard All By Myself off of Dookie, I wouldn't say its a favorite by any means but it was one that left an impression on me because i got the cd and put it on to go to sleep, made it maybe halfway through the album before i fell asleep and I woke up in a dark and silent room, radio was on but nothing playing, as a kid it was an ominous loopy feeling and then the hidden track starts playing "I was all by myself..." so im just laying there like "what the fuck is going on, is this real" lmao.

remember AFI having numerous hidden tracks across some of their earlier albums. loved those ones.

Great video, my favorite hidden track is They Might Be Giants' "Token Back to Brooklyn", off their Factory Showroom album. What makes it stand out so much is that the song was placed into the pre-gap of track 1, making it only possible to hear by rewinding the CD from the very beginning. Guitarist John Flansburgh used this method again on his second solo album, with the track being a text-to-speech narrated story about a person who is trapped in the pre-gap.

I have the original pressing of McCartney's 𝘋𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘙𝘢𝘪𝘯 album. 𝘍𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘰𝘮 is tucked away as an unlisted track right after 𝘙𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘙𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘴.

My main abiding memory of hidden CD tracks was getting annoyed at all the bands who thought they were being clever by putting 99 tracks on the CD with random shit thrown around like NIN on Broken. The idea is cool, but it felt like anything other than the "Endless, Nameless" approach of putting a track after a silent gap rather than out on its own was trying way too hard. Now, for Easter eggs I still think were cool - things like Radiohead hiding an extra liner booklet under the "Kid A" disc tray... That was pretty boss.

one of my favorites, both the song and where it was hidden Was Sister Machine Gun, in 1995 they did a cover of the Doors Strange Days hidden before track one.. you had to rewind to -4:20 to play it

Great channel man! Loving the videos and the Abacab album in the background 😁

Being born in 2003 and living in a small town, during my childhood/pre-teens I kind of experienced the transition of the physical era to the digital era. It was really sad to see the place I used to go to rent DVDs almost every friday being more and more abandoned over the years

William Control's hidden tracks off the first two LPs immediately come to mind for me. they're some of the last big modern examples i can think of, as they came out at the tail end of the mainstream relevance of CDs as a format. the most recent one i remember hearing is the final track off of Arkaik's Lucid Dawn and it was also excellent. i'm rather shocked that The Offspring's hidden track on Smash wasn't mentioned here! it's incredibly iconic to me. hidden tracks were truly a magical thing, a unique fixture of the technology of the time from a bygone era. i miss the sense of discovery before everything was spoon fed to us.

There was a hidden track on Alice In Chains' Sap e.p. that my friends and I thought was hilarious back in high school.

My favourite hidden track is from the Misfits, 1997 Album American Psycho . A song called : Hell Night 🤘🏼

Gen X'r here. Couple more from off the top of my head... White Zombie's "Blood, Milk, and Sky" (very underrated tune) contains "Where the Sidewalk Ends, the Bug Parade Begins" after a long pause. STP did the same pause thing after the last song on Purple (forgot which song), it ends in a lame but catchy lounge style tune "Its my second Album.."

There's a hidden track at the end of 1977- the debut album by Northern Ireland indie-rock band Ash. This consists of a recording of the band messing around in the studio and culminates in all three members p*ssing and vomiting. The band were aged 17 when the album was released, so I'm sure it seemed like a cool idea to them at the time...

I remember some hidden songs starting after a few minutes of silence, like in Silverchair's Diorama album

REM's album "Green" that has a hidden track... and also the 1st She Wants Revenge album.

I honestly didn't even know hidden tracks on CDs were common so this video was really interesting. Great job as usual.

Listening to around the fur made me think about this a lot recently

I remember hearing about albums that had secrets on the first track pregap, so to hear it you had to play it from the beginning and then hold the skip backwards button to actually rewind past the 00:00 mark...

when i was a kid there was a boyband in the UK called Five... they had a cd where after the final track, if you skipped 80 tracks of silence, you got a cover of the ''Inspector Gadget'' theme on track #99 hahahaha

I haven't followed you long enough to know if you're a pop/punk fan but I'd wager a guess that you are and if so, you know about the hidden track(s) on NFG's Sticks & Stones. I guarantee I will be the only person in your comment section who mentions this. "Someone's in your house.." 2:06 DUDE. DID WE JUST BECOME BEST FRIENDS. BLINK IS MY FAVORITE BAND OF ALL TIME AND I KNOW YOU ARE ABOUT TO COMMENT ON THE HIDDEN VIKING WIZARD LIES LINE. Post edit: can I buy you a no homo beer? Let's talk.

On Danzig 4 there is a Hidden Track called “Invocation”. There are all these silent tracks between track 12 “Let it Be Captured” going to track 66 which is “Invocation

My favorite hidden track is gotta be Damone from Deftones

Halfway House from CKY Volume 1

My uncle was born in the late 70s and he told me once that he used to look at the data lines on the back of audio CDs to see if there was a hidden bonus track.

AFI had This Time Imperfect 6 minutes after "but home is nowhere" on Sing the Sorrow, and Battled is on the track of Morningstar on The Art of Drowning. Of course you cant forget 21:13 which came after The Light in the Glass on Coheed & Cambria's IKSoSE: 3.

I can remember being in a pub back in the 90’s and my friend putting on come on by the verve on the jukebox, the final track on urban hymns, and then it finished, followed by silence and loads of people wondering why there songs aren’t coming on…maybe something to do with the 10 minutes of silence that follows the track for one 2 minute inconsequential instrumental. This was the kind of annoying shit that bands were way to fond of in the 90’s, the CD format has a lot to answer for - bloated album length for one thing. That smashing pumpkins double album, ML & the infinite sadness, is impressive as all hell but it’s way too long, the restrictions of vinyl kept folk honest if you ask me.

Those were the days. Favs.....Slipknot - Eeyore, Deftones - Damone

hes the millennial music nerd

I also remember on Ps1 games tracks 2 onwards would work on a cd player and play the game's sountrack

I thought it was one of the alternate lyrics for Aliens Exist 2:17

I remember a Public Enemy having a hidden intro when you rewinded further than 0:00 and the CD player showed the time with a minus like -1:23, i think it was the Muse Sick in our Mess Age album and i was really blown away how it was possible. But you had to actively rewind to find that

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but Marilyn Manson’s Mechanical Animals had certain things you could only see if you put the blueish jewel case over the album art booklet

man I remmeber having to scan cds for hours to get a 15 second preview of the damn songs to see if I like them or not lol

All the emo bands from the 00's have hidden tracks that are either ultra heavy or a poor recording of the singer and an acoustic guitar.

Buying CDs was fun - having a used CD shop nearby was where I spent many hours flipping through racks of them. And, trying to figure out the best way to get rid of the price sticker. Anyway, Information Society probably had the best hidden stuff on their CDs (though actually, I never bought any of their albums - oops) I think one of their albums was in CD+G format if you had the right type of player. Others had some encoded noise that could be run through a modem to obtain messages or files.

I can't scroll through all the comments but 2 more that stick out in my mind are from Stone Temple Pilots second album Purple (I'm sure someone mentioned it) and for the rarely remembered and underrated album Kerosene Hat by Cracker.

Cannibal Corpse covers Metallica's "No Remorse" as a hidden track on their album entitled "Gore Obsessed"

You didn't mention track zero. Some hidden tracks appear before the first song. You just have to rewind it.

The first and only one I ever discovered completely on my own was the “I was alone” hidden track at the end of Green Day’s dookie. I was probably 9 or 10 at the time. I was so confused. Because of how different the song was from the rest of the record I thought that “I was alone” was somehow a default sample song included with the CD player 😅

I was born in 1990. Hidden tracks were something special to me. My first hidden track that I heard was the alarm bell sound effect that closes out on U2's "Zooropa" album after the final track "The Wanderer (featuring Johnny Cash)". It creeped me out when I was a child.

Anti Christ Super Star had a hidden track. So did Korn (I think it was a cover of "Earache My Eye" from some Cheech & Chong movie)

One of the most unique secret tracks I’ve ever come across is on the album “1977” by Irish indie rockers Ash. You have to press rewind on track 1 to access it!

You're talking about gen x

I always thought the 1-12 tracks off that Korn album was b/c it was a moment of silence for their fan, Justin, who died not too long ago. I guess I was lucky to own a copy of Nevermind with Endless Nameless. I don't use spotify all that much, hence, the dresser full of albums right beside me. I guess my fav hidden tracks are the ones on k-os's albums. I always knew that there were hidden tracks on albums because my CD player would always show how long the song would be, hence why I would never be surprised.

I was born in 84 we were the last gen to have rental stores too it's sad I'll never be able to take my son to go rent movies and games it's crazy. Loved when lyrics would be in CD sleeves. I was lucky I had a CD warehouse close to me I'd trade old ones for new ones or vice versa. Miss hidden tracks I remember there being the video for Korns got the life on an old PS underground disc I still remember the code to watch it lol triangle, circle, square, circle, triangle. Me and my bro found it on accident. Big Franky fan BTW

311’s best album Transistor has a super cool instrumental intro before the first track, so you have to rewind from track 1 to hear it

amazing nostalgia for my 45 yr old self! Thank you Josh!

I swear the pre-gap was a years-ahead gaslighting technique. I knew I was hearing weird things in those -0:02 interstices. Hidden tracks were the bomb and I miss stumbling on them as some archaic analogue only experience that can only be of the technology it was made on. My personal favorite hidden tracks include KoRn's Earache My Eye. Between The Buried And Me's Man Land, and Slipknot's Eeyore. That kind of thing and thise cute multimedia functions on CDs, I sorely miss, as crusty and Turn Of The Century-Core as they may have looked.

Some that I feel don't get talked about enough On the fragile by nine inch nails there's a 10 second sample of the cut song 10 miles high in the pre gap before please Halloween 4 by Billy Cobb is an example of a modern album doing a hidden track with the 5th song featuring a few minutes of silence before a brief reprise of the horns from a previous track play. The devil and god are raging inside me by brand new has a minute long pre gap of overlapping phone messages that fans suspect are related to the many family members that died while working on the album. Mechanical animals by Marilyn Manson has a hidden 15th track that can only be played by putting the cd into your computer which opens a file that plays the song on a loop while you get to look at 2 paintings. The lyrics to the song are hidden in the booklet but you have to put them under the blue jewel case to see. Salival by tool features a hidden track called Maynards dick that has no right to be as catchy as it is. Pearl jam does a lot of hidden tracks with their most famous one being master/slave from ten, but most people don't know that the Japanese pressing of the album lists master/slave and instead has a mysterious bonus track simply listed as ? On the back, when played it's reveled to be a cover of I've got a feeling by the beatles The sap e.p by Alice in Chains features a hidden 5th track called love song which is hilarious and sounds like a parody of the haunted Mansion ride.

S.C.I.E.N.C.E by Incubus scared the shit out of me as a kid. The last song ends with the bad arguing in the studio and then after a few minutes of silence there's about 10 minutes of weird sampled beats and warped vocals and what sounds like some childrens toy like a speak n spell being fucked around with? Really tripped me out not expecting it the first time around

Yeah the 90s were awesome time to grow up man 🤟

I still love the hidden track on Austrian Death's Machine first album which is called "Not so hidden track".

Stone Temple Pilots sophomore album Purple contains a secret track immediately following the last song. I believe this track is called "12 Gracious Melodies." It's kinda cool and I've always included it when listening to that fantastic album.

My brother is in a local band here in Arizona called the echo bombs. Originally, he was planning to have their last album pressed on vinyl, so that the hidden track would go into the run out groove like you were mentioning earlier in your video. The vinyl pressing never happened because of how expensive the process was, but the hidden track is on a couple of the CDs that my family has that I’ve seen. You’re not gonna find it on Apple Music or Spotify though, and your ears are probably better for that. You wouldn’t want to hear the phrase Elvis is dead repeated over and over again for roughly 15 to 20 minutes. Trust me!

Fear before the march of flames album always open mouth had a full ass secret booklet inside the jewel case.. like you literally had to pop the spine to get the book out. Shit I wish I still had haha And as far as hidden tracks. On AFIs sing the sorrow there was a bunch of hidden songs that were all really good(by my 6th grade standards, don’t know how they hold up now) and the traumatizing blink 182 secret songs… ugh wtf

One I remember was at the end of Marilyn Manson's AntiChrist Superstar. After the album proper, there's blank space until the last bit of space. So it's like a half hour of silence and then all of a sudden you're hearing some weird demonic shit. I remember waking up to it thinking ,WTF?

Mister Millenial talks about CDs😆For real I kinda liked CDs but I was a completly cassette tape fanboy🤔

WeLcOmE TO InTeRmIsSion - the Offspring did this also, it was awesome

Hell yeah. I loved discovering this type of thing. Similarly, once I put a CD into my CD-ROM drives and instead of the music player opening, a video played. I then went through all my CDs seeing if I could find more hidden video content. Maybe I found one?

Dookie, I Was All by Myself by Tre was a fun one for me but a newer death metal band 200 Stab Wounds includes a cool feature on the B side of their debut after the final song where the dead wax has an infinite loop of droning sounds.

The last hidden track I experienced was Jamiroquais "Automaton" album, which had a "Japanese only" hidden track "Nice and Spicy" which is a great track.

High speed internet was made available in big cities in 1997. 1998 everywhere else. The internet wasn't slow for that long. Why do people act like it was the stone age?

I always think of All By Myself, the first one I heard. By Tor and The Snow Dog has loop of chimes

Great video! I was born in 1981 and I totally agree with what you said here! I usually would wait to see if a band or artist would release 2 singles I like from a c.d. before I’d purchase it and enjoyed getting home with it and hoped that the lyrics would be on the inside of the booklet so I could learn all the correct lyrics and get a better idea and feel for what they’re trying to say in the songs or maybe the whole c.d. would be like a continuous story? I also liked the hidden tracks-and as you said they were a way of being a part of something that you could bring up with your peers after sitting through the whole c.d. and be a critic and prove you’re not a poser fan-they were nice surprises I was a member of both Columbia House and B.M.G. Music Clubs so I have quite a big c.d. collection. I also would purchase c.d. singles and imported c.d. singles because they sometimes would have rare tracks or b-sides that couldn’t be found anywhere else at the time-pre Internet of course. Here’s a few other hidden tracks from artists I’m sure already know of these though-Korn on their self titled debut-it’s a verbally abusive husband yelling at his wife named Terri about parts for a Dodge Dart-depending on how dark your sense of humor is, you may get a couple chuckles out of it? Korn from their second studio release c.d. Life Is Peachy-they cover WAR’s Low Rider with Jonathan Davis performing with the bagpipes and WAR’s lead singer doing the vocals for the song. Stone Temple Pilots from their second studio release-self titled(unofficially Purple)after track 11, Kitchenware and Candybars-Lounge Singer Richard Cheese performs-12 Gracious Melodies;include that number, it’ll keep you company😅! Cracker from the c.d. Kerosene Hat-which had what I’m pretty sure is Cracker’s biggest hit “Low” on the c.d. they have a hidden track titled Euro Trash Girl that was a mediocre hit for them. Nirvana In Utero only on c.d.s released in Germany after track 12 “All Apologies” the track “Gallons of Rubbing Alcohol Flow Through The Strip” is on Germany In Utero releases, I’m sure you can find that track online somewhere? It’s mainly Kurt sarcastically rambling on about stuff and laughing and screaming and a bunch of guitar noise. Sorry to type a mini Bible to you😅, just wanted to let you know I enjoyed the two videos I’ve watched of yours so far, this one and the shopping for c.d.s in 2024 one as well, take care!

Rammsteins reise reise album has a hidden track of you skip back one track after putting in the cd. It was clip of audio from the crash of Japan Airlines Flight 123.

Being 16 in 2004...The tail end of CDs being on shelves and the start of...well the wild west. By 2002 Napster had come and gone. The iPod had been released. I was born in 1980 and by 2004 I was burning pirated shit onto CD or...burning MP3s onto a CD. And eventually just playing them from a dedicated device. The peak of the album model was the early to mid 90s. CDs were dominant but you still had cassettes and....singles. Whether they were CD or tape. In 1994 if you wanted to hear a song on demand you had to own the CD or cassette and play it. Or you borrowed from friends and recorded it on tape. High speed dubbing was awesome when going tape to tape. For CDs you had TDK making 74 minute tapes. We know why. By 1999 the majority of the populace had a device to play music without CDs it just happened to be a big ass desktop computer and CRT monitor. Crazy how quickly things evolved. Secret tracks were awesome. Undertow was infamous for it's secret track. NIN Broken. AFI. GNR had a Manson cover as a hidden track. That's Charles Manson, by the way. Nirvana had the original secret track with hype surrounding it. Damn how long ago this all seems...

I remember there being a gap track on Kid Rock's Devil Without a Cause album between F-ck Off and Where U At Rock. There was also one on Dream Theater's Octavarium album. As for hidden bonus tracks, I liked the cover of Marie's the Name (His Latest Flame) on Scorpions Face the Heat. On Dave Matthews Band's first album Under the Table and Dreaming, it skips to track 34 for the song #34. Simple Plan's first album had the hidden tracks Grow Up and My Christmas List. The Green Day and Korn albums I already knew about.

My first hidden track was Playdough! Off of Fury of the Aquabats. My little kid mind felt like I found a secret song just for me!

My favorite was probably “Hangnail” from James Taylor’s 1997 Hourglass album… Another oddball was the hidden track on Blind’s Melon’s Soup where you had to rewind track one to get to the hidden pregap song.

It’s sang by tre cool from all by myself.

The Dead Weather 2011 LP Sea Of Coward has 30 seconds songs hidden underneath the label. I thought that was pretty cool. One of them was the beginning of later released ''Mile Markers'' and the other one was babytalk of some kind.

China Drum had a great secret track on Goosefair. Their version of Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush. There's also the much less pleasant 'Sick Party' secret track on 1977 by Ash.

Another cool hidden track is The Real Song for the Deaf, track 0 of Queens of the Stone Age's Songs for the deaf. Every time you start the disc, the player starts at track 1 and ignores it. You have to hold down the seek backward button at the start of track 1 to get to it, and aparently it only works on older CD players. I found it in wikipedia, and confirmed it with my copy via a 1992 built Magnavox CDC 794 changer. I'll have to try it on a new machine somewhere.

One of my favorites is the hidden track on Messiah’s Twenty First Century Jesus that comes in two minutes after the last track. The NIN Broken tracks were originally on a separate mini disc packaged with the CD. The hidden track Love Song on Alice In Chains SAP is interesting lol.

""Go ahead and build a better messiah, we can dig another grave. This is your calling. If you are hearing this, there's nothing I can do. Something has grown in my chest, and I have seen it, it is hard and cold. It's been dormant for many years. I have tried to save you, but I cannot come to save you. But this is what you deserve, this is what we deserve. This is something that we have brought upon ourselves. We are not a victim, you are not a victim. We are not a victim, you are not a victim. God will grovel before me, God will crawl at my feet. These are the dying years, these are the dying years. When you are suffering, know that I have betrayed you."" ~Track 99
