Radiohead lyrics found in Oracle executable!

Oracle Tips by Burleson Consulting
January 27, 2010

Dennis Yurichev reports that the Oracle 10g executable contains Radiohead song lyrics!

He says that running the strings command against the Oracle executable in Oracle 10.2.0.1 reveals the song lyrics:

strings oracle.exe | grep radiohead

Displays lyrics from a Radiohead song!

#define STRING "I'm a creep, I'm a winner, what the hell am I doing here.I don't belong here - radiohead"

This seems to be platform dependent, since it is found in Linux and Solaris distros, but not on Oracle 10g release 2 for AIX.
