In radiohead's Creep when the first verse shifts to the first chorus, the guitar is supposed to start playing during the chorus. But the guitarist apparently didn't like how quiet the first verse was so he played the first 3 notes a little bit early to surprise everybody. Some also say he was probably just checking the volume on the amp. It's not completely clear what his intentions were. But they left it in the final recording and even played it like that live.
