Music Trivia -> Backwards Messages -> W
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.

"Word Disassociation," Lemon Demon
Here's the chorus line of this song, which was consisted of the lyrics "Word Disassociation" sung four times (eight times in the third chorus of the song). If you play the chorus part backwards, you'll hear "Ashamed, I saw Susie's girl!" four times in a row (eight in case of the song's third chorus).

"Work It," Missy Elliott
In the chorus, after the line"put my thing down, zip it and reverse it" you hear the same line backwards. Also, during the middle of the song, after "Listen up close while I take you backwards", you hear "Watch the way Missy like to take it backwards" in reverse. Cryptic!
