What are some songs with "backwards messages"?

I'm pretty sure my friend from HS painstakingly took apart a cassette and unwound the spools and rewound it backwards....can anyone confirm if that would do the trick? As long as the proper side of the tape is still being read, I can't think why this wouldn't work....

You better believe it would work. Did it myself, knew many others that did back in the day

Knowing Wendy O. Williams, it's probably something like "Hey you moron, you're not supposed to play your records backwards!"

IT says "Consensus Programming is dangerous to your health, the brainwashed do not know they are brainwashed." Which if you really think about it is very true.

Red Hot by Motley Crue is an example...of course the back of the record cover said there it may contain backward messages. Right about where Vince sings the part "the kids scream in fright through the night...loving every bite with delight, spin it backwards to hear something like" sure feels nice to be a devil"

Well hey, thanks for the info. That definitely sounds like something Wendy would've said too.

Whitecross also had it on one of the songs off of the debut.
