Is backmasking really hidden messages?

Question

I played a pop song that used to play on Disney called "Over It" by Anneliese Van Der Pol. When I played it backwards, the words sounded similar to Japanese music. It sounded like the original's singers voice. I picked a spot in the middle to play it at. The words went, "Iy ee ay oo....." then her voice said "satan" really fast. The words sounded very clear. I got freaked out and reversed the file to its original way.

Answer 1

I am a former audio engineer and I disagree with the last answer
you can intentionally insert backward vocals in a song, the christian rock group Petra did it on the beginning of their song
"Judas' Kiss" it's start off as garbled but played in reverse it's actually a pretty clear message you can hear, it can be used for good or bad, Queen was famous for doing this in their song "Another one bites the dust" where if you played it it backwards it said "we smoke marijuana" over and over again,so as far as backwards masking being real hidden messages the answer is yes, and no you can't hear the word satan in ever song played backwards

Answer 2

play any song you want backwards and youll hear the word 'satan'.
