Music Trivia -> Hidden Messages -> I

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.

"I am the Walrus," Beatles
In the fade-out of the song, you'll hear the Tragedy of "King Lear" Act IV, Scene VI from a BBC radio program where they say 'Bury my body' and 'O untimely death'.
Paul Warren
"I Gave You My Bullets, You Gave Me Your Love," My Chemical Romance
On the outside of the CD, where the duplication warning normally is, it says, "Unauthorised duplication is a violation of applicable laws and will result in Gerard coming to your house and sucking your blood."
Rhiannon
"I Remember Larry," Weird Al Yankovic
Around 3:10 on the song, is a backwards message. Played backwards, you hear Al tell you "Wow, you must have an awful lot of free time on your hands"
Ra'akone
"I've Seen All Good People," Yes
In the ending of the segment 'Your Move', you can hear Yes sing 'Give Peace a Chance'.
Paul Warren
"If U Seek Amy," Britney Spears
During the chorus, she says:"All of the boys, and all of the girls are begging to If U Seek Amy." Said fast, it sounds like F-U-C-K ME. Thats Britney for ya!!
Bobby
"Insomniac," Green Day
In the artwork of the insomniac cover If you look closley in the flames you can see a naked woman & several other ghostly figures
Optimus Lime
"Instructor Mooselini's Rap," PaRappa the Rapper
When the song is played backwards, the word "Germany" is heard at around the point where Mooselini says "Now just don't forget, this ain't kung-fu, come on again!"
DJ Blaze
"Isomniac," Green Day
In the artwork of the insomniac cover there are 3 skulls (one for each band member) the first 2 are clearly seen but to see the 3rd you must look at it from a certain angle
Optimus Lime
"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.
