Music Trivia -> Backwards Messages -> F

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.

"Fire on High," Electric Light Orchestra
After being criticized with 'Eldorado' having subliminal messages, Jeff Lynne placed a message in the song which sounds like 'Madness, madness, madness' and gibberish played forward. But played backward It says, 'The music is reverseable, but time is not. Turn back. Turn Back. Turn Back!...'
Paul Warren
"Five Sticks," Camper Van Beethoven
For some reason, this track found on the self-titled album by the band is entirely backwards, and is actually their OTHER song "The Ambiguity Song". Lyric on "Five Sticks": Everything seems to be up in the air at this time Everything seems to be up in the air at this time One day soon, it'll all settle down Everything seems to be up in the air at this time
Agrimorfee
"Free As A Bird," The Beatles
At the end of the song, john says "time to go Lennon", but not very clear. when it's played backwards he says "it turned out nice again".
