A number of songs - including several by the Beatles - supposedly contain "backwards masking," words and phrases reversed and put into the recording as a concealed clue or subliminal message. The problem is that the human brain is hardwired to find spoken words, so people do find things, even when there's not really anything there.

The funniest was "I sing this song for Satan" from the Mister Ed theme.
