Darling Nikki backwards message...

Does anyone know of any LEGIT backwards messaging, besides on 'Darling Nikki'?? I mean, that one's obvious, but what others are there?? Oh! I know of one!!!! I just thought of it as I was typing.....at the beginning and end of 'Baby I'm a Star', it has what SOUNDS like 'party chatter', but really it's Wendy and Lisa carrying on a conversation recorded backwards. This is only by memory, but, I remember them saying something about....."Come on, baby, let's get outta here.....they don't know....let's go crazy", or something close to that. It's kinda cool. For any of you who care, all you have to do is buy a cassette copy of whatever album/song your interested in finding backwards stuff on, cue it up PAST the point of the song you're curious about, insert the tape with the opposite side 'up' (or, insert it so that the opposite side is the 'play side'), make sure all tracks are set to 'on', and listen closely. I don't have any cassette operated recording equipment any more, I went hard disk recorder a long time ago, but I remember doing that, specifically with the Purple Rain album, and I found those two backwards tracks....Darling Nikki and Baby I'm a Star. And, for those who don't know (HEY....there could be a few out there....cut me some slack!!!), the backward part of Darling Nikki says, in perfect harmony and backing insruments... "He...he.....he...he...he...he....he....Hello.....how...are youooo...I'm fine.....'cause I know...that the Lord is coming soon.....coming, coming....sooooonnnnn". And the Wendy and Lisa chatter on BIAS was a pretty cool find, too. Any others??? And if anyone out there could refresh my memory on EXACTLY what Wendy and Lisa were saying, it would be cool, since I don't have any cassette multi tracks anymore. Thanx.

Hm, that's funny, it was a long time ago that I figured that one out, too.....but, for the benefit of those who have NOT figured the two mentioned messages that I spoke about, and who don't want to dig through thread after thread looking for the info, I posted it. Your response didn't really bring anything new to the table, but thank you anyway.
