Prince Records ((( Played Backwards )))

Ok, I remember back in the 1970's - 80's allot of artist used to put hidden meesages if you played their albums backwards.. Stairway to Heaven, allot of Metal Bands,ect.. putting "Satan" or other things as a joke


* For the friends that have Prince's Albums.. have you ever played them backwards and found "secret/hidden messages"??

I don't have a Record Player or his Records

~ If anyone has them, try it and tell us if there is anything funny/interesting wink

There's a couple of bits of backwards masking on Purple Rain.
The obvious one at the end of Darling Nikki, and some talking
by Wendy & Lisa at the beginning of Baby I'm A Star.

Girl, particulary the extended one has a woman speaking the lyrics to 'Boy' backwards.
For You, the very first words, are backwards.
Irresistable Bitch has something that sounds sampled backwards.

I'm sure there are more, which I can't think of for now.

btw it's easy to play music backwards: just save it as a wav file and reverse it (the best and clearest way). otherwise, record it to cassette tape, unscrew the tape, and flip the tape over (it's been a long time since I tried that!), or move the record backwards with your hand.
Life it ain't real funky unless you got that orgPop.

At the end of darling Nikki, it says (backwards) Hello, how are you, I'm fine. because I know that the Lord is coming soon, coming, coming soon.

Why do you say metal bands used Satan verses, as a joke?
Are you trying to cover up something?

My brother and I played this about thirty gazillion times when news got out that there was a backwards message...it was way cool. And then we tried it for EVERY song that Prince made...didn't work. I did hear it on "Girl" and, to me, it just sounded like Prince having sex with someone. shrug

In Baby I'm A Star:
"Like what the fuck do they know? {backwards message}
All their taste is in their mouth
Really, what the fuck do they know?
Come on, baby
Let's go crazy!"

Girl:
Backwards message is Wendy repeating lyrics using "boy"
"So strange that no one stayed at the end of the Parade..." - Wendy & Lisa's "Song About" on their 1987 self-titled album.
