OK, I let this CD run when I thought it had 'finished', and I find that there is a long track after the final, published, track, track 11, 'The Solution'. So it would appear the CD has a hidden track on it - an apparently 'nameless' 12th track??! Sound of the sea ebbing gently in a shore, bird-song and Chris and Jon intermitently jumping with various verses in with a voice-only harmony?!
Do we know what this track is called??
Thanks in advance.
Bren.

Most fans I know call it the 'Ambient Track'. It is another hit or miss for most fans. To me, it was something new and different and therefore fine with me albeit very much a surprise the first time I played it all the way through.
The Following In From The Yesworld Discography section:
Track 11 is followed by approximately 25 minutes of 'ambient Open Your Eyes' featuring segments of the entire album. The same track was played before each concert during the 97-98 tours of North America and Europe.
Hope that helps Bren. Somewhere in the threads of yesteryear on this site is some discussions and reactions to it.

That's answered that one. I was gonna give up on this CD, but I've decided to keep on trying.

Every once in a while I try again too. I never have much success liking it, though.

It's not really a hidden track per definition, because anybody could find it if they let the CD run on after The Solution, meaning they don't have to do anything to find it. If you want an example of hidden track, try the soundtrack of The X-Files (the TV series, not the movie). Playing the first song, reverse it to timer point 00:00 and beyond, you will find a song BEFORE the first song, which I think is by Nick Cave.

I know which track your on about, they did play it as a sort of overture to the 98 tour in the U.K which was the first time I ever saw them....at the time I thought it was the chaps behind the curtain doing sound checks..lol
However as I am an ardent disliker of this album, it was by the mereist of flukes that I came upon it.
When it comes to OYE, I find it hard enough to listen on after the first track, let alone the last.
