Kate Bush did something similar with the single "Pi" on disc one of the album "Aerial".

I understand she does mess with the numbers a bit but what the hell, she's Kate Bush, she can do whatever she wants. ;-)

on edit: I found a youtube vid but I haven't checked it out yet to see if it's for real.
