They actually do list this album's hidden tracks, just not on the back cover. Instead they're on the CD tray liner, only visible after you take the CD out. Since it's three full songs, plus an intro and outro track, I like to think of it as a throwback to the occasions in the LP era when bands would include a bonus EP with their album just for the heck of it (like the first edition of _154_ by Wire). The funny thing about "Girl!" is that they sampled the vocals from "Girl You Cheated on Me" by The Presidents... and somehow this was enough for the copyright courts to rule that the owners of the Presidents' back catalogue were entitled to _all_ the royalties from "Girl!" That right there is why Pepe Deluxé don't use use external samples anymore.

talking about music is like dancing about architecture. Would have been nice to hear the actual songs, at least in part. Fair Use applies.
