VIDEO: Shocking Subliminal Messages in Songs. Have You Heard Them?
While conspiracy theories are something that people can believe are real or not and maybe with enough evidence people would start believing them, subliminal messages are completely real. You might not always consciously understand them or see them, but they exist and people are using them to transmit a whole lot of messages straight to your head.

It seems that this kind of message is transmitted through songs as well and if you will listen to songs backwards you will realize that there are quite a few that use this technique.
According to whatculture.com, The Beatles were the first to popularize backmasking, a technique in which backwards sound is added to tracks that are designed to be played forwards. The Beatles originally used the process to hide humorous messages in their songs, a trend followed by a number of popular artists since.
Backmasking has been a controversial topic in the past, with some Christian groups claiming that it has been used to hide subliminal Satanic messages. This has led to anti-backmasking legislation being proposed, record-burning protests being held, and countless hours being spent by adolescents rewinding their tape decks and record players.
These days, backmasking is mainly used to hide little Easter Eggs in songs, often with a reference to other works, or for comedic effect. Of course, there’s also some hidden messages that are so bizarre, not even the original artists have managed to explain them properly.
This list takes a look at twenty popular songs that have very creepy back-masked messages hidden in them, from heavy metal legends to pop chart toppers.
While they are some that might be interpreted as having a satanic message, you will also have some that are really nice like a song from Franz Ferdinand. The message is: “She’s worried about you, call your mother.” This is a genuinely nice message, we can still imagine how weirded out the first person to discover this little gem must have been.
From the album The Wall you will get the message: “Congratulations, you’ve just discovered the secret message. Please send your answer to Old Pink, care of the funny farm, Chalfont.”
This hidden message has been interpreted by fans as having two different meanings. One is the foreshadowing of The Wall’s character’s descent into madness, while others believe it references Syd Barrett’s mental breakdown before the song’s release.
The album Vaya has the following message:
“Your enamel made no reflection in our mirror, coughing up the coffins, cotton candy coated teeth these pockets were clinching all filled with teeth, amnesia proletariat, in the unlikely event that sarcasm is an unfitting dress, amnesia proletariat, amnesia proletariat, amnesia, coughing up the coffins cotton candy coated teeth, these pockets were clinching, all filled with teeth sharpened on the f**king hides of men.”
The fact that this lengthy hidden message is made up of re-cut lines from earlier parts of the song doesn’t change the fact that this is the strangest, most disturbing message on this entire list.
