Got nothing to do with 'not ready' or something else. Its not uncommon either, happens every now and then on whatever artist...

Not true at all.
When Richie had been recording Undiscovered Soul an unfinalized copy leaked on the Japanese market which made Richie release the unfinished version in Japan so that he'd be ahead of the bootlegs that without a doubt would appear on the black market. The rest of the world had to wait another month for the album though.
They kept it this way when they re-released Undiscovered Soul as a Japanese Tour Edition. The first disc still had the unmastered version (without Steven Tyler on harmonica at If God Was A Woman for example), while Richie released the finalized version in the rest of the world.
Why there is such an odd bonus track on the Japanese pressing is something I don't know. It's not a mistake and probably done as some sort of joke.
