In 1990, Judas Priest were taken to court over an alleged hidden message in their music.

The lawsuit claimed that the words “do it” were hidden inside their cover of “Better by You, Better Than Me” and helped trigger a tragic suicide pact involving two young fans. But the judge ruled the band was not responsible, saying the alleged phrase was a random combination of sounds — not an intentional command.

One of the strangest court cases in music history.
