Music Trivia -> Hidden Messages -> Latest Entries
Aside from backwards messages (which is a seperate page), bands have found other interesting ways to hide things in their music or in their album covers.
The 20 most recent entries are listed below. There are 69 entries in this section.
"Stairway to Heaven," Led Zeppelin
Oh here's to my sweet Satan. The one whose little path would make me sad, whose power is Satan. He will give those with him 666. There was a little tool shed where he made us suffer, sad Satan.

"Chickenfoot," Chickenfoot
They used some kind of special ink, I assume, because when you first take the album off a CD rack, everything on the front and back cover is black except for the logo and track numbers. Keep it in sunlight just a little while, though, and pictures of the band (as well as the track listing) become visible. Similarly, a small triangle on the inside cover eventually reveals the message, "Think Again," whatever that means.

"Just A Singer In A Rock & Roll Band / Seventh Sojo," The Moody Blues
If you don't pay attention to the lyrics, it just sounds like a powerful song about confusion & angst. If you study the lyrics, it calls for a person who sings in a rock band to help change the world in a mysterious way that only he knows, but not control it, like the Who's Tommy tried. I do rock vocals, & I seem to be the only one who knows about a mysterious way to help change the world, by ending confusion, but I would not rule it, even if everyone begged me to. I plan to use my musical abilities to help spread the message & unite all peoples peacefully, so it's like pure prophecy, but no one except a person in my position would be aware of it. I tried to ask the band what inspired the very unusual scenario, but they never replied. ( If anyone wants to know more about this, you can contact me through the website listed below my parodies here. )

"Don't Ask Me Why," Billy Joel
At the end of the penultimate verse, Billy seems to be singing "Don't axe me why" instead of the song's title, as he usually does. I do not know if the mispronunciation is deliberate and, if so, what it would be a reference to.
Raphael
"good riddance (time of your life)," green day
at the biggining of the song billie joe plays the wrong note twice and says 'fuck'- they kept it in to have a more humerous side of a sad song

"Lovin' Mother Fo' Ya," John Mellencamp
On this song from the album "Uh-Huh", you can hear him say "What the f***?!" at the very beginning.
Rocky
"Cherub Rock," The Smashing Pumpkins
Once, just after Billy says "Come line up for the big fight! Tonight!" Listen closely. You'll hear an alien-like noise. If you slow down the song it sounds like "Them!"
Ethanator
"Come Together," The Beatles
During the chorus, it sounds like John Lennon sings "Shoot me.... Shoot me... Shoot me" Then Mark Chapman shot him.

"It's All Over Now, Baby Blue," Falco
At the end, you can hear the saxaphonist (or possibly Falco) say, "Oh, shit" after he screws up on the last note.
MOR
"Baby You're A Rich Man," The Beatles
In the fade-out of this song from "Magical Mystery Tour", the Beatles sing "Baby, you're a rich man, baby, you're a rich man, baby you're a rich man, too." However, at the very end of the song, if you listen carefully, it sounds like they're singing "Baby, you're a rich fag, baby you're a rich fag, baby you're a rich fag Jew." This would be a reference to their manager, Brian Epstein, who was gay and Jewish.
Sexy Sadie
"The Fame (album)," Lady Gaga
At the start of both "Eh Eh (There's Nothing Else I Can Say)" and "I Like It Rough", Lady Gaga and a synchronised male voice respectively will say "Cherry cherry boom boom". What this means I don't know from Adam.
Jakko Wakko
"Knockin' On Heaven's Door," Bob Dylan
Right at the start of the song, you can hear Bob farting!
Jakko Wakko
"The Great Gig In The Sky," Pink Floyd
At around 3:33 you can hear a faint woman's whisper over the music. You can hardly hear it, but she says, "I never said I was afraid of dying."
Nathan Elia
"Hey Jude," The Beatles
From 2:55-2:58 in the song, if you listen, you can hear Paul say "OH! Fucking hell!" He says this because he messed up on the piano during the song. John Lennon, having the cynical humor he did, says "Let's keep it hidden in there. We'll know it's there, but no one else will!" You have to listen really carefully, though.
Kate
"Bawitdaba," Kid Rock
After he says "and the chicks with the beepers" you will hear beepers in the background.
Travis
"Blinded In Chains," Avenged Sevenfold
And in another part, in the background, you can hear someone say "I see another side in you but there's not much more I can do from on the outside looking in your government is listenin' to push you on the story of immortal father mortal son give them your mind and all your wealth the cycle will rebirth itself"
Travis
"Blinded In Chains," Avenged Sevenfold
In the background of one part you can hear someone say "And as clowns you follow suit behind the blood between the red and white and blue but it's too deep for you to see and everyone eventually will take the step cause it's in sight you take the left I'll take the right I feel the hate you've built for me and I say pay attention baby"
Travis
"Rock the Casbah," The Clash
In the middle of the song, you'll hear a video game beeping. It was mistaken for a cell phone, but cell phones were released 10 years after the song came out.
Paul Warren
"You're The Inspiration," Chicago
When played backwards, you'll hear "noisy wool" around the part that goes "Always on my mind, you're in my heart, in my soul".
