CD-Extra

A CD in the CD-Extra format (also known as an Enhanced CD) is a Multisession CD that consists of two sessions: the first session contains the audio files and the second session the data.

Existing normal audio CD players play the first session as an Audio CD. The second session contains data files whose contents may relate to the audio track in the first session, for example with song lyrics and background information about the music, or they may just contain gimmicks in the form of video clips. The second session can only be used by PCs with a CD-ROM drive, it cannot be 'seen' by a normal CD player.
