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.
Forwards.
Backwards.

Interesting…
Life is good!
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
n”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”. 😉
Doing this sort of thing instead of work? I’m thinking lyrics “too much time on my hands”.
Also, if Ms. Minogue were to buy some kitschy knick-knack that looked ugly but she liked it, I would say, “No taste, Kylie!” >:D
You 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.
I am so programming a voice-activated killer robot right now…
Boy I sure miss that reverse speach guy on Art Bell. Thanks for the revival.
I 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.
So 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.
I 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.
I always wondered if you played a satanic measage backwards would it sound like a britney spears single?
Dude…. Crack is bad for you, man… it’s time to lay off the bong…
I 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.)
Where do you think of this stuff?? Backwards?
Stairway to Heaven…..
If there’s a bustle in your hedgerow, don’t be alarmed now, it’s just a spring clean for the May queen. Yes there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there’s still time to change the road you’re on.
“Oh, here’s to my sweet Satan. The one whose little path would make me sad, whose power is Satan. He’ll give you (give you) 666. There’s a little tool shed where he made us suffer, sad Satan.
