Queen’s "Another One Bites The Dust": The Secret Backwards Message to Make You Smoke Weed and Probably Wear Satin Capes
Gather ’round, pop-culture detectives and conspiracy theorists! Have you ever listened to Queen’s iconic ‘Another One Bites The Dust’ and thought, "Hmmm, this sounds way too funky for mere mortals"? Well, fear not! The fundamentalist Christian community has absolutely EXPERTLY uncovered that hidden agenda (you know, the kind buried beneath layers of glitter, spandex, and actual good music) – because apparently, 1980s rock bands were all just secret drug dealers in disguise!
Yes, you heard it right! When Freddie Mercury and the lads were jamming in the recording studio, they weren’t just breaking musical boundaries; oh no, honey! They were apparently plotting to turn the nation’s youth into polite little puff-puff-pass aficionados. Because who needs direct communication when you can subliminally tell teenagers to "smoke marijuana”? The audacity!
Shoutout to the "Predictable Plot Twist"
Now, don’t get too excited; it was actually Queen’s bassist, John Deacon, the chillest dude alive, who was swapping rock for disco vibes after chilling with the legendary chic gods, Chic. Talk about taking a left turn from the realm of unfortunate haircuts to crafting an life-altering bass line! Clearly, he was in league with the devil—or at least hanging out at the coaxial cable of the disco inferno—making music that had explicitly no hidden messages… right? Wrong!
Here comes the punchline straight from the wackos of the 1980s: ministers with far too much time on their hands claimed that if you played the song backwards, you could hear a not-so-subtle declaration that, “It’s fun to smoke marijuana!” Conveniently, they never seem to mention that the same could easily apply to a slice of pizza when chanted in reverse.
From Radio Waves to "The Witching Hour"
So how did Queen find themselves wrapped up in this glorious mess? Let’s decode this conundrum. Picture it: ministers, with their fine-tuned ears for definitely not good music, blamed every rebellious rock act of the time. It’s like finding a rogue hair in your soup and accusing the chef of a hair-raising plot (pun intended). The Beatles, AC/DC… All caught in the wave of self-inflicted hysteria desperately trying to “cover up” their nefarious plans through fancy guitar riffs. Must have been a pretty wild six degrees of Kevin Bacon back then!
Of course, they had the essential quotes at their disposal. One minister dramatically proclaimed, “A subliminal message is a message that’s below a discernible level!” So, are we to understand that 1980s rock musicians, while sporting glam outfits, parading around in spandex, and surrounded by groupies, were actually double agents for the devil? Plot twist!
Meanwhile, the Logic Is Getting Weirder
Fast forward to the wild court case involving the iconic heavy metal band, Judas Priest, making literal “backward masking” become the hottest topic at every church gathering. Apparently, if you play one of their tunes backwards, it’s like they’ve put all the clues to the unsolved mysteries of the universe into a game of rock musical chairs. “Do it…” might as well be a motivational poster while we’re at it!
And let’s not even start on dear ol’ Freddie. Known for his lavish parties that may have included a tad more than “just some marijuana”, he was clearly a misunderstood genius trying to corrupt the innocent youth with a bass line so catchy, it might as well be classified under "weapons of mass enjoyment." Yes, Roger Taylor’s phenomenal beats have also conveniently transformed into the standard tempo for performing CPR. Who knew rock stars moonlighted as paramedics?
So Here’s the Real Smoke
At the end of the day, whether you be a halt, here to tell the youth how to live, or just an avid listener of funky bass lines, ‘Another One Bites The Dust’ remains an anthem that declared, “We’re here, we’re queer, and we’ve got funky bass lines!” So please, if you have to reverse any track to nurse a subliminal headache, just use it for dancing your soul out to because that’s just how Queen rolls.
Remember: If anyone questions you about playing records backwards, just say it’s a meditation technique—because who wouldn’t want to relive the glory of ‘80s rock while figuring out life’s greatest mysteries? Happy listening, and remember—to each their own tune!
