R.E.M. 1992 subliminal message

[Cerealgrl]

It's "Don't even try to wake her up"

[dramzv]

Come mucha arveja, come mucha arveja, come mucha arveja, come mucha arveja. Which means "eat too many green peas"

[SourProductions0]

I'm gay, Rashny and the washing

[kinneas]

That's not a subliminal message mate.

I think you need to find out what shit is before you try to use it.

[munckymagic]

How dare you accuse a man as well read as Michael Stipe of such bad English. 'I gave her what she wanted' or 'I will give her what she wants'. End of.

[werthe14]

Actually, before you put in the subtitles I thought it sounded like he was saying "I'm not gay, what do you want?" when reversed. Which obviously doesn't make sense, since Michael Stipe is gay XD

Love this song either way.

[tiewebb]

you have to be backwards yourself to actually listen to songs backwards

[ThePbjloaf]

uh, yeah. That's it. uh-huh.

[yanman235]

what a load of bullshit grow up m8

[WatTyler13]

Complete.

Fucking.

Horseshit.

Thanks for fuck all.

[Svenkrone]

Sounds to me like... " a(aaaa) gay Bradley Walsh!"

[Olekander]

It's ok, but if you add words to any sort of incoherent mumbling, the brain tends to associate the words with the mumbling. Just like saying "look at that cloud, doesn't it look like a tank". Person says, "why yes it does".

[15before]

I agree with you, man. I just posted this because the regular listening was as doubtful as the reverse listening. And just for fun, I don't think R.E.M. planned to do this. I love R.E.M., I think they are one of the greatest band ever. And as you can see, this is the only video I made about reverse/hidden messages. It should appear as a funny tribute to the band!

[XaNaPeSsOlAnAi]

lma0!! xD

i can sing that part (call me when y0u try t0 wake her) t0o

xD

give it a try =P

[Murmeration]

For years I have been thinking that he was singing "don't even try to wake her up". Now I see the light. Thank you.

[dannoofthedead]

LOL. I have to agree, way too much time on your hands but still cool none-the-less.

[cdoep]

dude, you have too much time on your hands.

[nhlplayertributes]

#1: forwards it sounds like "call me chad waaka"

#2: backwards it doesn't really sound like i gave her what she wants

[lorddan91]

ha cool

[garaasgal]

ummm no offense but you have a lot of time on your hands dont you?

[15before]

Not really. In less than two hours I listened the song backwards, I made the the video and I uploaded it on Youtube.

Thanks for viewing!

[conraydo]

well he's able to say so much words. have you ever listened to "end of the world (as we know it)"? a friend of mine speaks english as mother tounge and he even fails at trying to sing that.

[THEmrsMichaelStipe]

It sounds more like "I don't care what she wants" lol it doesn't really matter what he's saying, he's still uber sexy hehe {=

[THEmrsMichaelStipe]

Haha that's funny. Oh and dravenousone, Michael Stipe is bisexual :) yay and also the lyrics ARE "Call me when you try to wake her up" =D lol

[EllieF314]

you really ought to try get out more. and before some smart arse comments that im on here id like to point out that insomnia has brought me here and nothing else.

[hoss1962]

what an utter load of bollocks....try getting out a bit more....

[dravenousone]

Wouldn't it be "I gave HIM what he wants"?

:)

Honestly, I've listened to that song OVER and OVER before because the official lyrics do NOT fit, and it sounds NOTHING like "call me when you try to wake her up"

Thanks for posting this..

[Belegaer]

Genius

You understand he recorded it forwards in the first place, right? It's not an intentional message, that's just how you interpret it when you hear it. If look into something hard enough, you'll find something.

SORRY: I accidentally deleted your post.

I'm pretty sure that hidden message was not intentional, of course.

[SeanSM92]

Thanks, no worries.

[rohiogerv22]

These guys sang "End of the World as We Know It," they can sing fast, its not a mystery.

[rsuandrade]

LAME

[DLoganFoster]

Ah gay rusty watch !!

[colonelblimpuk]

Quite funny- definitely worth a chortle!

I always thought he was singing: "coming in Cheryl Baker"

[wingedsniper]

LOL!!! This looks like an [Adult Swim] Bump... Ah! Sweet nonsense...... XD

[NOT!]

[Peugeot206isalive]

Atf irst, I thought he used to sing: "Call me Chad Baker"

Than, I thought, call me Chad when you wake her up"

[jonny06]

i always thought it said calling jamaica

[interfecit]

Can you please post the whole song backwards?

[sidewinderlrms]

You need medical attention. And you made me waste 3 minutes of my life, douche

[turkeyjekey]

The lyrics are "Callin' to wake her up"

Douchebag.

Get a Life,

Who listens to songs backwards.

[ThomasRowbottom]

False, the lyrics indeed are Call Me When You Try And Wake Her Up.. check the album sleeve, any official REM source you want. Nobody knew at first but it has been very long since the actual words were discovered.

[ilikebeer]

haha you're a tard.

[ThomasRowbottom]

The video is only 1:21 long... seems like its your own fault if you wasted anymore time then this so blame the time wasters appropriately.

[interfecit]

Though i gave her what she wants

[xhollyollyollyx]

Bless Kurt Cobain. I Miss Him Muchlies.

This is joke though :]

[SpiderFan23]

u spelt tonight wrong

[15before]

I know it sounds strange, but the correct title is the one I wrote, with "Tonite" instead of "Tonight".

[ilovemyfiatpanda]

Great video, made me laugh :)

[daisygecko]

I always thought it sounded like "call me Cheryl Baker" (Bucks Fizz) LOL!!!!

[connorman294]

i always thought songs played backwards sound kinda creppy lol but this is funny

[jontyoldmanface]

yeah great blah blah you can put any words to any lyrics played backwards if you really try. its like horoscopes, you make thinsg fit to tell yourself its true. oh and by the way the proper lyrics are 'Come on in and try to wake her up."

[mamzelledalton]

No, it really is "call me when you try to wake her up".

[Potguy88]

Ha!

Thats pretty cool.

REM are clever. You are clever. Have a badge.

[qba5775]

As he sings just 'Call meentry wake her up...'etc it's impressive you found this line out. However, it's not shocking : )

And the song is a message itself-a light spot thrown at a suicidal album (automatic), as goes Peter Buck (you know that Kurt Cobain shot himself while listening to Automatic?)

Marguisdragon remember Stipe likes both boys and girls :)

[marguisdragon]

yeah, ´cause this video´s handed it to me on a plate ;->

[tuxjade]

BORING TWAT

[RoadStoneStudiosINC]

Interesting ...

[marguisdragon]

it would be in the case of michael: "i gave him what he wants" xDDDD

[pishowda]

thats dumb. i cant believe anyone would think he cant say 9 words really fast.

[nyotpaks]

You're great man! I salute you for that...

[remlive92]

GREAT!! You are a genius

[15before]

Thanks! However I'm a big R.E.M. fan. I saw your channel, it's great! Bye!

[remlive92]

thanks! i will upload other shows!
