In Popular Culture
A song by MC Lars featuring Ashley Jade entitled "The Bonus Track for Japan" pokes fun at the Japan-specific instance of this phenomenon, with Lars singing a series of facts about Japan. It was actually used as the "Japanese bonus track" for Lars' album The Graduate. It has, more recently, been remixed and put on the MC Lars album 21 Concepts (but a Hit Ain't One).
Synthpop band Hyperbubble added a bonus track named "Bonus Track" at the end of their second album Airbrushed Alibis. The song starts with the sentence "Wait! There's more!" and features lyrics such as "It's on the CD but it only has a number, it makes you feel like you had a better deal. It may not be as good as the others but that's ok because it's just a… bonus track".

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“There’s that popular misconception of man as something between a brute and an angel. Actually man is in transit between brute and God.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“The higher, the more exalted the society, the greater is its culture and refinement, and the less does gossip prevail. People in such circles find too much of interest in the world of art and literature and science to discuss, without gloating over the shortcomings of their neighbors.”
—Mrs. H. O. Ward (1824–1899)
