''Backward Songs with Luke'' is a long-running web series about finding hidden messages in pop music, as well as other various sources, such as [=YouTube=] videos.

While the show follows a plot, and has four seasons, it's possible to watch episodes out of order, as most involve simply interpreting backwards messages. Everything is an effort to learn about and stop TheIlluminati, with an underlying mystery about their plans.

Watch it [[https://www.youtube.com/user/BSwithluke here]].

* TheIlluminati: The musicians are not only being controlled or threatened by The Illuminati, but they had also kidnapped Luke on at least two occasions due to his research.
