Why don't you tell us why it disturbs you ?

I think I listened to Queen backwards once.

Secret message in The Wall, heard it.
No secret message in that commercial.

Hello tom:

why don't you tell us why it disturbs you ?

I really don't know...

Ok, yes I do... We've had discussions here about how WRONG it is to tell your children that are NO winners and losers, and EVERYBODY is equal.. The message here is, you TOO can win baseball games (even if you CAN'T throw a ball).

THIS commercial is a continuation of that wrongheaded notion...

Well, why didn't you say so? I still think the message here is buy a Volkswagen.Passat.

I tried but to be honest, it all sounded like backwards noise to me.

Now, ELO has an album with a few songs where they purposefully backmasked wording but it was obvious when the song played that there was something to be heard in reverse. Nonsesne stuff but this is how I spent many hours of my childhood.

Odinn - Fire on High. :-)

Right, Fire On High was the biggest most obvious one and I recall there being one other song from them but that was just too long ago.

Nah, didn't get that message at all. I just saw engaged parenting, a father spending time with his son.

I didn't see that either. It's showing the inept father teaching his son to throw while implying that eventually the kid is going to be sorry about learning to throw from him. But at the same time, the father will hand down his "legacy" of the VW and that is something the father and son will both be proud of... unlike throwing the baseball.
