10 Music Easter Eggs You Never Realised Were In Famous Albums

6. Radiohead €“ OK Computer/In Rainbows

An absolute mountain of speculation has occurred about Radiohead's album OK Computer in conjunction with their 2007 album In Rainbows.

In Rainbows seems wrapped up in the number ten: it was announced ten days before release which was on October tenth (10/10), has ten tracks and there are even ten letters in the words In Rainbows (that's not to mention the 'I' and 'O' in Radiohead appearing like two tens on the album cover). So what's all that got to do with OK Computer? Well, OK Computer was originally titled Zeros And Ones. When both album's tracks are placed together with around a ten second crossfade, the tracks transition so well together that it's obviously intentional, forming one massive super album. And before you go thinking it's just a coincidence, it took fans so long to work this out that Thom Yorke start hinting at it throughout various media interviews. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAos89cuSgQ
