Hidden Tracks On Music Albums; How Many Do You Know Of?

[JamesG]

For some reason or another music artists sometimes have a track on their album not listed on the official track listing.

There are a lot of hidden tracks out there. I will only be mentioning the ones on the albums that I currently own. What do you know of?


Amy Winehouse - Back To Black





On Winehouse's second release Back To Black there is an untitled 11th track. That track is another version of You Know I'm No Good featuring Ghostface Killah.

Guns N' Roses - "The Spaghetti Incident?"





On this Guns N' Roses cover album there is an untitled 13th track. That track is Axl Rose singing Look At Your Game Girl written by convicted murderer Charles Manson.

For obvious reasons this was left off of the official track listing and not advertised.

KISS - Destroyer





On KISS' 4th studio album Destroyer there is an untitled 10th track. The track runs for about 1:25 and it features singer Paul Stanley shouting "Let's go have ourselves a rock and roll party."

It is reported this was done as a response to the public outcry about KISS being devil worshippers and musicians putting satanic subliminal messages in their music. KISS did the hidden recording as a joke and fans unoffically call the track "Rock and Roll Party".





Marilyn Manson - Smells like Children





Smells like Children was the 2nd release by Marilyn Manson; an EP remix album. On this record there is an untitled 16th track.

The track runs for about 8:20. The first 2 minutes is a slower version of *****y Chicken Gang Bang. After a 4 minute pause there is more weird sounds that fans have labeled "Poop Games".

Marilyn Manson - Antichrist Superstar





The third release by Marilyn Manson contains something rather odd.

The album contains 99 tracks.
Tracks 1-16 are the music.
Tracks 17-98 run for 4 seconds blank.
The untitled 99th track runs for about 1:40 containing voices that you can't really distinguish what they are saying.

Fans simply refer to it as "Track 99".

Nightwish - Oceanborn





The second studio album by Nightwish contains an untitled 11th track. The track is a song named Sleeping Sun that was on the US release as a bonus track.

There's a hidden track on the 1996 Journey album Trial By Fire, but I don't remember what the title of it is.

I looked it up, it was called Baby I'm Leaving You.

However it was officially included on the 2006 re-issue.

Thanks - I knew it had "Baby" in the title.

"M.I.A." - (Arular) - is buried as a hidden track at the end. Perhaps because it's filled with polemics like the first verse: "You can watch TV and watch the media / President Bush doing takeovah" and later: "The trendsetters make things better / Don't sell out to be product pushers." Words to live by, really.

"Train In Vain" could be considered a hidden track, since its not listed on the Clash's London Calling cover(well at least not on the LP version).

Adrian Belew's Here (1994) has a hidden song that's a continuation of that CD's song "Fly." I call it "Fly Pt. 2"

On NIRVANA's second studio album Nevermind some albums contain a hidden track and others do not.

It is mentioned that when the album was mastered Kurt Cobain intended to put the song Endless, Nameless at the end of the record untitled.

When Nevermind was originally mastered and put to shelves it did not contain the hidden recording of Endless, Nameless due to the misunderstandings of the people putting together the album.


The band then demanded that the mistake be fixed and later releases of the album have the track. After the song Something In The Way the track continues for 10 minutes of nothing leading into the seperate Endless, Nameless track.


My copy of Nevermind does not contain the hidden recording.

On Ozzy's fifth studio release No Rest For The Wicked there was an untitled track, Hero, at the end of album.

However, on the 1995 and 2002 remastered versions Hero got an official track listing.
