10 Popular Songs That Hide Creepy Hidden Messages

6. Tool - Intension

Alright maybe stretching the definition of creepy on this one as, if anything, it’s actually just a bit sarcastic. However if you’re new here on WhatCulture music and you’ve studied my career in depth elsewhere, now’s probably a good time to point out that it’s my effin' list lads, and I’ll do what I want.

Anyway, buried deep in the album 10,000 Days, Tool’s song Intension contains a few lines that, when the song is played backwards reach right out of the recording and... compel you… to be… good.

Work hard, Stay in school, Listen to your mother, your father is right, son... Jesus loves you... Work hard, Stay in school, Listen to your mother, your father is right. Now some Tool fans will tell you this is actually a deep critique of how we’re preconditioned to behave a certain way but, in reality, it’s probably just a slice of high banter.
