Music Trivia -> Backwards Messages -> M
These are INTENTIONAL messages that groups have recorded and placed in their songs. This differs from backwards masking in which bands supposedly sing a song in a special way so that when played backwards a hidden message appears.
Entries Beginning with M
"Magical Mystery Tour," Beatles
This is an album cover art message. On the album "Magical Mystery Tour" the letters that spell out Beatles has a distinct phone number in the stars that make up the Beatles. What I have heard is the the phone number was a contact number for fans to receive a message from the band, only in the UK.
Wade Brock
"Mary Mary," Chumbawamba
At the end of the song, she says the Hail Mary prayer backwards. This mirrors the beginning of the song, where she says it forwards.
The Dormouse
"Mercy On The Boy," Icehouse
At the very beginning of the song, the words are indistinct, probably sounds like "I've got a pocket full of holes", what the hell?
Mickey D.
""Mr. Ed" Theme," Jay Livingston
No joke! Two people discovered that when playing the chorus backwards it said, "Someone sang this song for Satan." So was Mr. Ed the Antichrist?
Indy Gent
"Mr. Radio," Electric light Orchestra
Somewhere during the song the phrase "hello Mr. Radio" can be heard backwards.
A Stranger
"The Music is Moving (Its Beat)," Mabel Pines
At the end of the song, a strange message appears. Reverse it, and you get a weirdly sexual message.
Calvin Wilkerson
"Music Sounds Better With U," Big Time Rush
If you put :Music Sounds Better With U" in reverse, it says "I'm not asking".
Test
"My Name Is," Eminem
The Chorus , ""Hi! My name is.. (what?) My name is.. (who?) My name is.. [scratches] Slim Shady " when reversed , you can hear "It is slim , Eminem (YO).."
Daidalos5
"My Name Is...," Eminem
In the chorus, if you play it backwards, it says,"It's Slim, It's Eminem, It's Eminem, It's Eminem!
