Backwards-man-sky

<Homer>: "Yvan eht nioj! You gotta love that crazy chorus!"

<Lisa>: "What does it mean?"

<Homer>: "Ah it doesn't mean anything. It's like "Rama-Lama Ding Dong" or "Give Peace a Chance".

- Homer Simpson downplaying the lyrics to Party Posse's hit "Drop Da Bomb"


Still another one of those Flash sites that plays rock songs backwards (what's known in the industry as "backmasking", kids) to help you perform your dark rituals and what-have-you. I still can't believe there are people who actually think this is an intentional effort to lure people to worship Satan, or go to the Dark Side, or whatever it is these songs are supposed to make you do.

The one that almost sounds like anything intelligable are "My Name Is..." from Eminem and the granddaddy of them all, Led Zep's "Stairway To Heaven".

Since I mentioned the Simpsons at the top of the post, the rest of the Wikipedia Made-up words in The Simpsons is pretty funny, too.

Dude, how can you say it's all fake? Rock bands themselves say it's all true, so you can't tell me that they make it up,or it's just coinscience. And another thing, how can they be by mistake when the words are so clear? and they make sentances too! it's not just words here and there. It would be a real funny mistake if a band just happened to play a random song backwards and in it just so happens there was rituals and messages in them. God bless
