 l right, this is just weird as hell. Michelangelo wasn't the only one having his sweet, sticky way with art during the Renaissance. But it really takes another genius of Michelangelo's caliber to up the sneaky ante to the next level. Enter Leonardo da Vinci. No, he didn't pass on the secret history of the offspring of Christ through cryptograms or backwards crossword puzzle word searches or whatever. He just embedded a secret soundtrack into The Last Supper. Wait, What the Hell?  Those tasty dinner rolls scattered in The Last Supper may be the notes of a musical arrangement. Actually, not just the bread, but the hands of Christ and the Apostles as well. One musician found that by drawing a five line musical staff across the painting, the hands and buns seem to line up as the notes of a pretty little composition. This is assuming, of course, that the notes are read from right to left, which was how da Vinci wrote. Don't believe us? Give this a listen.  Even skeptics have acknowledged that the composition's harmony is too perfect to be a coincidence. Da Vinci was, after all, the full-on Renaissance Man embodied, and one of his many, many, many gifts was that of music. But the madness doesn't just stop with the notes. The same guy who discovered the music also claimed the painting held clues to the rhythm of the song and the duration of each note. So, technically, the first album containing a secret message when played backwards was The Last Supper.

This kind of stuff reminds me of the urban legend that says that if you listen to Pink Floyd's "Dark Side Of The Moon" album at the exact time as playing the movie "The Wizard Of Oz" that the Pink Floyd album makes complete sense with what is going on in the movie and I think they also say that if you play the album twice in a row not only does it make complete sense with what is going on in the movie but both the movie and the second playing of the album will end at the same exact time.

It's a quality rock album so that's a good excuse to listen to it twice in a row!
The Wizard of Oz is the best all-American made book & film combination EVER. Timeless stuff & it inspired Metallica.

I don't know about it ending at the same time on the second play through...but I have made my own copy of "Dark Side of the Rainbow" and it does sync up with the movie on several occasions...this was apparently coincidental, the band did not plan it, it just happened.
A few scenes of note:
Dorothy carefully walking along the top of the fence next to the pig pen, as she loses her balance and begins to fall in..."and balanced on the biggest wave you race toward an early grave"--transition to "On the Run"
Miss Gulch (AKA The Wicked Witch of the West) appears on her bicycle just as all the clocks start ringing in "Time" and the following music intensifies the suspense in the scene where Gulch is wanting to take her dog away.
Just after opening the door to a new, strange and colorful world..."Money" begins to play...and goes quite well with the rest of the scene with the munchkins dancing/singing.
When the Wicked Witch of the West appears on close-up, the lyric "Black" is spoken in the track "Us and Them"
The Scarecrow begins to dance around like a fool while singing "If I Only Had a Brain" just as the track "Brain Damage" begins.
The album ends on "Eclipse" with the sound of a heart beating, just as Dorothy knocks on the Tin Man's chest while listening...the Tin Man had a heart after all.
