There is a sort of a show that I kind of like to watch, Its a thing called JK Cinema. He has a little bit of trash on his site, but the Urban Ledgends are mostly prety clean. They deal with issues about ghosts and that sort of thing. I went to watch the newest one and it had a very creepy song at the begining. It was called Stairway to Heaven. The little clip that was put into the movie, I didnt notice to be creepy at all... until it was reversed. It would sing about Satan, and actualy make sence as it went along. This realy creeps me out, I think the guy who wrote it may have been possessed. I put a link to the movie here, Its a prety cool movie if you watch the whole thing, but you may get very very scared. Be alert when the car comes by.

Strange - we took some pictures of some catacombs in Germany, but I don't think they ever turned out to have "orbs" in them.

I'm usually skeptical of such stuff.

The music stuff was probably done on purpose - by either the artists themselves of the people who made the online video. Music normally doesn't make sense backwards.

I recorded and inverted the music from the website using my own audio recording program, and yes, it seems that way reversed. I don't own an original copy of their music (NOT my type . . .), so I can't tell if it was doctored by the video or not.

OH, later in the clip, it shows some well-known hoaxes with those alien pictures . . .

I wouldn't be surprised if some of the people who sent him email of "evidence" did some doctoring . . .

Reasoning with non-believers without encouraging them to read the Bible, I have found, is quite useless. God's word convinces - not our own reason.

my opinion for those things, as CobraA1 is, skeptical. but mostly it's Whoop-Dee-Do.
if it's a coincidence, then it's a coincidence. if it's more, it has no power over me and why fear?

so true, greater is he who is in us than he who is in the world.
the spiritual world is very real, and we are to be aware of stuff, but need to be secure in God, and give glory only to God, sometimes its even dangerous just talking about the evil things, especially for people with weaknesses, because listening about them can bread fear, and fear isn't good.
I've seen alot of the dark aspects of spirituality firsthand - it is real, not just all faked stuff (though of course there is faked stuff), but i've seen God also, and know his supreme power and goodness, and i have no fear, i've experienced supernatural acts of God much greater than any evil thing as well, but all in all, the greatest miracle i've seen , is salvation, and God's own grace in my own life.

Did the car comercial make you jump? Cobra, I talked to a guy who had that song on his comp. He reversed it and it does actualy sound like that. Needles to say, he didnt have that song very long . Him doing that on purpose? Sounds like a little to much work to beleive. And being afraid of it, I see no reason to be afraid of a song.

Yes stairway to heaven was done by Zeplin (for those tolkien fanatics among us, parts of the song are actually tolkien inspired).

The song is not purposely back-masked, that is, any messages there were not purposely put there by the people who recorded it. Backward masking is very obvious and easy to detect when its looked for. Backward masking is when a seperate track is recorded under the main tack backwards, so that when its played forward the seperate track is very difficult to hear unless your looking for it, however when you play it backwards the seperate track is clear.
What is present in "stairway to heaven is not a seperate track. It is infact simply the words of the primary track the song itself backwards. So unless Zeplin went throug the trouble of figuring out how to sing all that stuff backwards, and still have it sound like normal language when going forwards (which is really hard to do) its more than likely a coincidence.

The other two possabilities are this, its a coincidence but one which was orchestrated by Satan for some obscure purpose of questionable value.

or there is a guy (obviously viewed as a crackpot by most people) who believes that the human subconcious mind encodes everything it says so that if you play what people say (or in this case sing) backwards you will be able to hear what their subconcious mind was thinking (that they themselves might not even have been aware of). I don't remember the guys name but I think he was from australia or New zealand.. he refered to his idea as backwards speech or something original like that .

P.S. One of the few examples of real back masking I've ever seen was on an album by John Travolta.. I think it may have been the battle field earth sound track.. anyway john travolta recorded seperate tracks run backwards beneath the main track saying things like "we love you Ron" "we miss you Ron" and so on (refering to L Ron Hubbard).
