Easter Eggs in your MP3's OR Fun Lyrics You Missed the First Time Around

quote [ "I shot John Lennon" from Yoko Ono's - Kiss,kiss,kiss
"Paul is a dead man, miss him miss him miss him." from The Beatles -Im so tired
"Its fun to smoke marijuana" from Another One Bites The Dust ]

and the winnar is:
"Sleep with me, I'm not too young" from Hit Me Baby One More Time; Britney Spears

honourable mention:
"Oh Heres to my sweet satan, ... he'll give thosewith him 666" Led Zepplin

guess a lot of you are missing the point, its not whether it was deliberate or incidental, satan or drugs ..... Its an "audio easter egg" lying within songs that is interesting. The Britney Spears one realy blew me "it was very distinct in a spasming kind of way." I have not heard or heard about the Britney or Queen or Floyd b4 this.

eh. not buying it. the pink floyd track is obviously done backward and works. but the others, you'd be hard pressed to get two people to come up with the same thing--especially if they were not familiar with the song or the history. I've heard the queen bites the dust one before, and that's the most plausible. but even that I think is coincidence. it's kind of like numerology where if you look hard enough, you'll find what you're looking for.

i agree with insickness. I didn't hear anything about "paul is dead" or "i shot john lennon".

XChess said @ 3:39pm GMT on 7th Mar
"hear about" or "hear"
it sounded pretty much like -is a dead man, miss him miss him miss him -

Sorry, this is bollocks.

I call bullshit, but interesting nonetheless

This isn't really bollocks. I've read an article about how human psychology, what we're actually thinking of, actually forces us to say these things, backwards. I've heard of a voice sample of someone shouting "the house is on fire!" and backwards, it sounds like "house on fire!". While a reversed playback of Neil Armstrong's famous words, "One small step for a man, one giant step for mankind" says something like "man... land... moon" or some crap.

See if anyone can dig out that article. It's got other voice samples too, which I have listened to. I won't personally say whether it's right or wrong, but it's nevertheless interesting, and perhaps scientifically explainable.

bollocks + some other bollocks vaguely remembered from some article = more bollocks

The Zeppelin track is a maybe.

Not just bollocks, dangerous bollocks.

Does anybody think that a debauched rock star like Freddy Mercury would ever go to the trouble to backward mask something so lame and obvious as "It's fun to smoke marijuana"?

I could, however, see Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, just for laughs, recording some satanic bullshit, playing it backwards to see if it sounded like any genuine words, then incorporating those words into "Stairway" just to give their teenage fans goose pimples. I mean, the song makes little sense as it is. "A spring clean for the May Queen?"

jaxtraw said @ 4:55pm GMT on 7th Mar
That's an arty metaphor for your first period.

jaxtraw said @ 5:00pm GMT on 7th Mar
or maybe that was "bring your daughter, bring your daughter, to the slaughter, let her go, let her go, let her go". One or the other.

virgindog said @ 4:50pm GMT on 7th Mar
Nope. They even cut off the Spears' lyric so that the backwards version sounds close to what they're hoping for.

Pablio said @ 5:03pm GMT on 7th Mar
the pokem one was really funny...
and the eminem thing actually sounds pretty deliberate :)

popejp2 said @ 5:04pm GMT on 7th Mar
+1 "eh"

PottyMouth said @ 5:49pm GMT on 7th Mar
A band I was in once stuck a backwards lyric in one of our tunes, which when played in reverse said "I like eggs." Interestingly enough, chickens were violently opposed to our music.

Eh. Some of these may be plausible. Imagine you've been in a studio for days at a time and it's now 2AM. The engineer rewinds the lead vocal track and it sounds like the lead singer is singing "I masturbate to goat porn". Everyone is fried from lack of sleep, or too many drugs and starts cracking up laughing. They spend the next 3 hours trying to come up with english phrases that sound like something meaningful when played backwards. With the older stuff I don't think it's too much of a consipracy theory, just the byproduct of two much time spent in a studio. With the newer stuff, I think most people who do work like this know enough to know how to plant these things on purpose, the eminem one seem like that. Hell even the Brittany one may be on purpose, she didn't write the damn song, someone may have done it as a sick joke.

I remember an interview with Mark Mothersbaugh from Devo saying he was using the phrase "We smell sausage" in his work for advertising agencies because when it was played backwards it sounded like "Jesus Loves Me" I cant find the article but I found sound clip of it you can fuck aroud with.

A Canadian band named Klaatu released a song called "Silly Boys" on their third album "Sir Army Suit". If you were to play the song backwards you would hear most of the lyrics from their song "Anus of Uranus" on their first album. Some backwards masking, a few nonsensical lyrics makes for an interesting song.
I personally wrote a song that had the lyrics "When my head is resting between your thighs". When played in reverse that line translated as "Yeah, I'll find you and seriously harm you".
Sometimes they're on purpose as in the first case, sometimes not as in my case.

"Anus of Uranus"?! I MUST hear this song.

To roughly quote Bill hicks:

"if you're playing your records backwards listening for messages, you ARE satan."

that be true, captian.

scabble said @ 9:42pm GMT on 7th Mar
I enjoy how some of the normal clips are declaratively "indistinguishable" yet the backwards jibberish makes sense.

Holy crap! I never knew that song said "mrfn ik trem nik tit" when you played it backwards!

Narrenschiff said @ 10:23pm GMT on 7th Mar
If you play the end of Stairway to Heaven backwards and use your imagination it sounds like "play song backwards... hear words sung" or something.

Baxter_UK said @ 12:20am GMT on 8th Mar
It doesn't sound like anything. It's backwards, and sounds like a collection of backwards noises. You try to listen for words, your brain tries to make sense of the noise and you may hear vague words.

Phaedrine said @ 1:00am GMT on 8th Mar
When I tried to listen to the backwards versions without looking at what they claimed was said, none of them made any sense to me... However, when I looked at the "lyrics" and played it again, I could hear it. People let their imaginations run away with them sometimes...

freedude said @ 1:59am GMT on 8th Mar
Just listen to bands like Slayer or Venom. They're not subtle enough to do this shit and just sing forwards about worshiping Satan.

Onix said @ 4:37am GMT on 8th Mar
I played them backwards, without reading the lyrics firts, and did not hear a thing that made sense. Of course, I you read the inverted lirycs first, you are more likely to find some sense, which probably isn't there in the first place.

This is like that talking dog bullshit.

"Who do you love? Who do you love?"

"Riow row roo..."

"Aw, you do love me."
