It's funny, because I could only hear the satanic messages once i saw the supposed reverse lyrics. That goes to show you how much we are influenced, or atleast me =D.

you can hear everything else if you listen close and enough times.
you can tell what your enemy fears most by the means he uses to frighten you.

I tried this myself with sound editing prog about 4 years ago. It was about 3 Am when I did this, and listening to it backwards I was so extremely scared and freaked out, I pulled the plug on my comp and went to sleep.

If they did instead this, It furthers my conviction that Zeppelin is brilliant. The lyrics reversed render what some would call an "evil" message or mentality, a Stairway to Heaven reversed renders a Stairway to Hell.

iggs: The way I made the sound clip was first get a copy of the original version of Stairway to Heaven (I tried it once with a live version and it never worked). Then take the file into a sound editing program (I used Windows Sound Recorder - but that was with a .wav file), and reverse it. Crop to the place with back-masking sounds. That's it.

The funny thing is Robert Plant (singer for Led Zeppelin) came out and said, "Uh, those lyrics don't mean anything at all. They're just some words I wrote down," because everyone thought it was a deeply spirtual song or some such.

p.s., there was a message in reverse in a GI Joe episode a long time ago. It said something really ridiculous, because its when there was all the controversy about "subliminal" backwards messages. Do a google search on it. Include "Destro" in your search :D

I've done it to some Eminem and various songs, you can hear stuff like that a lot, if you have good ears.

www.goldwave.com is a simple editor you can use if you wanna play around with it

I dont know all you need to backmask satan is an s and two vowels anywhere in the next line, but it is there. The foward lyrics were heavily influenced by the book Magic Arts in Celtic Britian which make the forward lyrics cryptic and make people think its so weird it has to be on purpose but actually its directly from a book. Thanks for the site though it made me want to listen to stairway to heaven again.

Satan, schmatan. The backward lyrics clearly refer to a man having dinner with his family in a restaurant. The man is somewhat haughty (Plant himself?), his children are misbehaving, and the service is bad. Listen closely...

"Oh waiter, yes, my plate's empty.
Oh now the the little child's bored, make his dad first holler and shake him.
Yeah yeah girl, beef cube, sit sit sit.
And, mortal, in with the milkshake, bring me a sub the same speed."

Some funny stuff in this thread, alltough I have to admit I've little trust in people's understanding of the psychoacoustic model of MP3 when I hear these low-bandwidth samples of MP3 played backwards -.-
