Music Trivia -> Hidden Tracks -> M
Ever since there has been music on recorded mediums (vinyl, casettes, CDs) groups with a sense of humour have placed funny snippets or entrie songs on their albums without a mention in the credits.
"Matching Tie & Handkerchief (album)," Monty Python
Side 2 of the vinyl LP of the album has a hidden groove containing more material, essentially making it a 3-sided record! Now all the material is on CD, one had to place the stylus against the edge of the LP in such a way to find it.

"Mercury Blues," Meat Loaf
About 2 minutes after "Forever Young" on the Couldn't Have Said It Better Myself album, Meat sings this heart wrenching (yeah, right) ballad about the love a man has for his car. I found it when I was making a video for a computer animation class.

"Mmhmm," Relient K
If you rewind your CD player before the first song on the CD Mmhmm. There is about 28 seconds of them humming

"Mr. Brightside (Jacques Lu Cont's...)," The Killers
In the 10 minute-plus remix of "Mr. Brightside" on the album Tranquilize, there is a 30 second-ish snippet at the end. It is titled "Conversations with the Captain".
Bobbie Souffle
"music after track 13," Alanis Morrissette
After the alternate take of "You Oughta Know" on her Jagged Little Pill album, there is brief silence followed by an additional song. The untitled tune is a heart-wrenching ballad about lost love that Alanis sings a capella.

"My S***'s F****d Up," Warren Zevon
This is track 9 on his 2000 album "Life'll Kill Ya." The back cover of the CD doesn't list it, skipping from track 8 to track 10. I suppose the record company did this to avoid a parental advisory label on the album.
