There has Ben a lot of talk throughout the years of songs played backwards having hidden messages. I have started about a year ago doing research on these so called hidden messages and have found some interesting things. A common song people hear about is the reverse message in Led Zeppelins' "Stairway to Heaven," which I found has messages throughout the entire song. I have found a lot of the songs by the Beatles have hidden messages as well. I have found numerous accounts where the Beatles quote Paul McCartney as a dead man. Has anyone else found anything unusual in music.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgtxpRNT-r0 This is the easiest understood part of Stairway To Heaven. I thought this would be interesting to share. Give me some feedback on what you think. |

It makes almost as much sense backwards as forwards.

Playing Country music backwards is a rather uplifting experience. You get your house, job and wife back and your dogs returns from death!

You'd think that if Led Zeppelin went to all the trouble to backmask, they'd find something worth putting in the song. Satan's toolshed, indeed.

At the beginning of Iron Maiden's "Still Life," there's a gibberish-sounding 5-10 seconds or so; played backwards, it says "Don't meddle with things you don't understand." (possibly not verbatim...been a while)
"Torture doesn't work" lol
Guess they forgot to tell Bill Buckley. "...as we reason and love, we are able to hope. And hope enables us to resist those things that would enslave us." |

When I was in college none other that Tipper Gore, the wife of the former next president of the United States, had a crusade against backwards masking. Seemed her goal was to protect us against dyslexic satanists.
It was a huge deal to some people, to me it seemed like nothing but an attempt to sell records. Which incidently I admired. I always thought it was a conspiracy between the people who manufactured records, and those who manufactured the needles for the record players. You absolutly ruin both of them by playing them backwards. Pretty cool plan.

I liked George Carlin's comment; "If you play the new Led Zepplin album backwards, it screws up your needle!"

Well I never thought it led to drug use or drinking. My feeling was when you spent that kind of dough on a record and a needle and a way to get "quadraphonic" sound, you were probably already drunk or on drugs to even TRY to spin the record backwards LOL.

I really wanted to stay away from this thread, but couldn't resist.
Back in my...ehem!...younger days, some friends and I used to...uh...get our kicks out of spinning records backwards to look for hidden messages. I swear this story is true. We found tons of messages from all sorts of records. Our favorite, however, was a record by a guy named Mack Evans. There were so many Satanic messages in one of his records that we began to wonder about whether there was any truth in this whole back-masking thing. True story. Mack Evans. You can look it up. |

Thanks for all of the feedback.
I find it interesting on the paul is dead "story".There are many clues on the Sgt.Peppers Lonley Hearts Club Album.The story goes is that paul mccartney was decapatated in a car accident in november of 1966 and they replaced him with a nother man by the name of Billy Shears who won a paul Mccartney look alike contest.See what you think.Check out revolution nine on this site.I have played the enite song backwards and it is full of messages. http://jeffmilner.com/backmasking.htm (listen to revolution nine) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHq63VhIvz0&feature=related (album clues) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UVDlg4x468 |

Kevin, that's a joke, right? Sergent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Matt, good luck finding the Mack Evans record I was talking about. I googled the name myself and found out there is another Mack Evans in music. I was talking about the Mack Evans who sang with some group called the Liberty Singers or something like that. |

Try recording yourself saying "Jesus loves you!" in a normal conversational tone, and then play it backwards.
You'll hear a warped version of yourself saying something that sounds remarkably like "I smell sausage!" Strange but true...

I am looking but I cant find any information on that artist.On the magical mystery tour album you can see the Beatles written in a funny looking writing.If you hold up a mirror you can see numbers.These numbers linked to Billy Shears and two other funeral parlors.
