The jeffmilner stuff is NOT the scary surprise. I've listened to all the songs, it's not flash. Dude, if you don't go, you're missin out on weird stuff. :P

A few of those may be true, but when you play a voice backwards, it doesn't sound like anything, so it's very easy to manipulate. Once you are told that the song backwards sounds like something else, you're already listening for it, and your brain automtically twists and contorts it to sound like that. Pure coincidence.

but this acually started a rumor that paul mcarttney is dead.... in the very end of "im so tired" the jibbersh backwards says "paul is a dead man, miss him miss him mis him."
my favorit one backwarsds sais "satan eats cheez whiz"

Ironically, I was listening to Stairway when I opened this thread... :lol:
But, the backmasking is, as "xHaZxMaTx" said, Bs...

For some reason when I reverse my own music file of starway to heaven it sounds nothing like what is on that site.

Is it the original, or the Guns & Roses cover?

nope. this aint something that people pourpusly do.
and you need to listen very carefully! have you even read any thing?
its a phenomenon that recording studios found out. listen closly. you can hear it.
and these are only parts of the song!

I've heard of this before. It's some pretty creepy stuff.

I've heard of a song that was a Christian song with Christian lyrics, but played in reverse it was a satanic type thing.

Heard these loads of time.
On the simpsons there was on episode. There was join the navy backwards. Say even eht ne-arge into a microphone and blay it backwards. It sounds exactly like join the navy.
I dont beleive much of this. I played a song backwards once and it just pure coincdence sounded like normal words. It was all random stuff.

I had heard if it. Some people really think anyone intended to put those messages there, or that it couild even have a subliminal effect it those who listen to the song.
I mean, I never heard "anotherone bites the dust" and thought, "Mhhh... marijuana seem to be cool stuff".
