If you play an old Rock LP backwards, you will get the message “You are ****ing up your record needle, ha ha ha!”

This was inevitably paired with a talk about how back in the 50′s they did research that proved that subliminal messages made people “Eat Popcorn” and “Drink Pepsi” which BTW Snopes debunks as utter nonsense.

I was watching “Did You See That?” on NBC’s Dateline last night, and they played a backmasked song to the studio audience. I immediately knew is was backmasked. (Probably my sensibilities to this are heightened by hanging around here!) The song: Stairway to Heaven.

The audience didn’t get it, which shows even more clearly how quintessentially fundy a practice this is.
