I could rule the world (Waitresses) Easter Egg - Only Fools Worry About Backwards Messages on Records
The Waitresses song, "I Could Rule The World If I Could Only Get The Parts", features a warning sticker and backward masking in the song itself.
Chris Butler explains:
" there was a big to-do at the time about satanic messages on records, w/ nut politicians making political capital over this issue. They wanted records to be stickered, so we designed a sticker as part of the artwork. ... our 'hidden message' [when played backwards] says "anyone who worries about background messages on phonograph records is a fool... everyone else... have a nice day."
Special Requirements: I Could Rule the World EP, and a turntable where you can cut the power to the drive, OR an MP3 of the song and playback software that reverses the track
