Mushrooms Yes? No!!!
I had made a scientific discovery some time ago, and I thought I might as well share it with the world. Back in college, I had one of those long and boring homeworks I was doing with a friend, so of course we kept stalling. He mentioned that the song "Stairway to Heaven" has a part which talks about Satan if you play it backwards. So I checked it out, and it does sound like Satan is mentioned. I eventually isolated what words sounded like Satan backwards, and it is "Yes" (it helps if there is a sort of 'n' sound before it, which can happen when singing). That explained to me why so many people seem to think they hear stuff about Satan when songs are played backwards. So, that got me thinking, what lyrics would you need to have a song, when played backwards, tells people to worship Satan. The only problem was that all I could find that sounded like "worship" when played backwards was "mushrooms". I did find an extremely innocuous phrase that is truly evil, though. "Life is good." backwards is "Go to hell." If you don't believe, just use the basic Microsoft sound recorder and check it out. I still haven't found a good song to trick people into worshiping Satan, but, if you ever hear the lyrics, "Yes, mushrooms, and life is good," be wary. 20 Responses To "Mushrooms Yes? No!!!"
Interesting... Life is good! #1 - Posted by: eldarblood on March 19, 2004 05:01 PMWe did an exercise on the backward-masking of song lyrics in my 9th grade literature class. After much debate and hours of listening to Robert Plant sing in reverse, the general consensus was that it was all a load of hooey. If you keep taking songs and playing them backwards you're eventually going to find something that sounds like Satanism (especially if you're looking for it). You could also probably find stuff that sounds like "eat chocolate chip cookies" or "Screw you, Flanders!", but it doesn't mean that the Keebler Elves and Homer Simpson are putting secret messages into song lyrics. It just means you have a good imiagination.
Ha, now I can use Franks voice to say mushrooms are good on my answering machine. or should I have him say "worship satan." hmmmm #3 - Posted by: Rasta on March 19, 2004 05:22 PMn"Worship" backwards = "pish-wrrr" = pitcher/picture? Yes, picture eye! ...Hmmm, sort of... Google "reverse speech"; you'll get a bunch of websites who believe that we all unconsciously use reverse speech that tells "the truth" about what we're actually saying. And a bunch of websites pointing out how it's actually a "park fo' dole". ;) #4 - Posted by: Just John on March 19, 2004 05:45 PMDoing this sort of thing instead of work? I'm thinking lyrics "too much time on my hands". #5 - Posted by: LibertyBob on March 19, 2004 05:50 PMAlso, if Ms. Minogue were to buy some kitschy knick-knack that looked ugly but she liked it, I would say, "No taste, Kylie!" >:D #6 - Posted by: Just John on March 19, 2004 05:54 PMYou know the backwards part sound just like my neihboors, I have all was wondered where they where from. Now I know, thier from hell, and thats just thier native toung. Also explains why the snow melts so fast in thier yard too. #7 - Posted by: Monster Kabasue on March 19, 2004 06:06 PMI am so programming a voice-activated killer robot right now... #8 - Posted by: Ared on March 19, 2004 07:47 PMBoy I sure miss that reverse speach guy on Art Bell. Thanks for the revival. #9 - Posted by: Horts Graben on March 20, 2004 12:48 AMI have always though that you were such a metaphorical scientist. Who, really, would listen backward a music to try giving it some understandable sense except YOU. From your passed years at school until now Frank, I think you are and still be a teenager. I hope that the backwards does not mean for you that you are going to hell, because still life is good. You know what, forget the sciences and play it forwards without the mushrooms. It's bad to health, and it makes you crazy. #10 - Posted by: Amphitryon on March 20, 2004 02:08 AMSo it's true! The badgerbadgerbadger.com creator worships satan! I also heard the guy on Art Bell. I remember one clip from the CEO of Krispy Kreme and his speech backwards said something like," Eat our doughnuts". I had to oblige him. #12 - Posted by: Pumpk!nHead on March 20, 2004 01:00 PMI fool with the sound recorder sometimes when i get bored. I found that saying "hello" backwards sounds like "hole." But, i wanted it to say "asshole." So i had to say like "hello sss aah" to get it to say "asshole" when played backwards. Try it! it works! Or you can say stuff and listen to what they sound like when played backwards so you know what backwards sound sounds like the word. It usually sounds like another word. Or jibberish. I doubt it that most of these messages are intended though. #13 - Posted by: 5UB|_1|\/|1|\|4l |\/|3554G35 on March 20, 2004 08:48 PMI always wondered if you played a satanic measage backwards would it sound like a britney spears single? #14 - Posted by: Boo on March 22, 2004 05:39 AMDude.... Crack is bad for you, man... it's time to lay off the bong... #15 - Posted by: Jewels~of~the~Jungle on March 22, 2004 01:23 PMI like this, it has both science and religion in it. And people say you can't combine those two! (Then they point to Scientology and I see what they mean.) #16 - Posted by: BeckoningChasm on March 23, 2004 03:16 PMWhere do you think of this stuff?? Backwards? #17 - Posted by: Wellington Real Estate Agent on April 28, 2004 02:10 PMStairway to Heaven.....
