Excess Bagage / Hidden Track - Spleen
For those who didn't know
"This is a hidden track on the Dysfunction album, which was Staind's first major release. It can be found by fast-forwarding through a long moment of silence (about 10 minutes) at the end of "Spleen." At first you hear Aaron Lewis in the background pouring himself a drink. He then continues to play this song. He was most likely unaware of the fact he was being recorded at that time. (songfacts.com) "
I never found out about Excess baggage till I watched the unplugged DVD and only recently listened to the end of Spleen and wow, At first I think I could hear aaron lewis crying or at least sniffling, something along the lines of that but comparing this from the unplugged version it seams so much more personal, Makes me think.. Wow..
Do you think that it was recorded unintentionally at the time or was it done on purpose?

I think Aaron said it was recorded on accident, something like he was sitting at the top of some stairs and the mic was at the bottom and just happened to be recording or something. I'll try to find the link to him talking about it.
