List of albums containing a hidden track: U

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list contains the names of albums that contain a hidden track and also information on how to find them. Not all printings of an album contain the same track arrangements, so some copies of a particular album may not have the hidden track(s) listed below. Some of these tracks may be hidden in the pregap, and some hidden simply as a track following the listed tracks. The list is ordered by artist name using the surname where appropriate.


  • U2
    • Boy: Early vinyl pressings feature a short snippet of an early version of "Fire" after "Shadows And Tall Trees". Although it was absent from early CD copies, all 2008 remasters include the snippet again.
    • Zooropa: An alarm that some DJs hear after 35 seconds of dead air appears shortly after "The Wanderer."
    • The Best of 1980–1990: "October" appears a minute after "All I Want Is You". The song was originally found on their 1981 album of the same name and, despite being a hidden track, represents the album's only representation on the album.

    • PopMart: Live from Mexico City: On the second DVD, on the menu screen, if 'enter' is pressed it will take the viewer into the documentary aisle, and then if the 'Up' button on the remote control is pressed and then 'Enter,' it will select the security camera at the top of the screen, a video entitled "All Kinds of Everything" featuring a karaoke version of the Dana song with the sights of Dublin docklands.

The former requires the viewer to highlight the “Extras” entry. Then the viewers must press the right arrow key on your remote followed by the down key. The Zoo TV logo at the top of the screen will be highlighted. Pressing "Enter" will make a screen with “Abort” will appear. Entering the numbers “2711” will cause the clip to play. The latter is found after accessing the “Extras” section on the DVD and highlighting the “DVD” credits. Pressing the down key, followed by the right key on the viewer's remote, a non-access symbol shows in the centre of the screen. Pressing “Enter” will show a screen with “Abort” written on it. Entering the numbers “1993” will make the clip play.
