Yes. Even though she's over now, that song where she raps is beyond ridiculous and it turns up on "worst of" shows. She rhymes "hottie" with "double latte". It's worse than Dee Dee Ramone's misguided stab at Dee Dee King.

The madonna song was "justify my love". I think it was getting press at the time for a backward message. That's why we played it backward. I think it said "praise satan".

Like you guys, I caught a speaker not long ago on booktv. He played Led Zepplin (can't remember song) backward and it sounded like nothing. Then he said to listen for a specific satanic phrase and it was there. But the kicker is he then played the same part again and said to listen for a completely silly phrase where the satanic message was, and that was there too. I guess it's because there isn't really any definite ennunciation so you can apply different sounds, like a talking dog that says "I love you".

The human brain kinda puts together the sounds they expect to hear I think. The whole backwards message thing could probably be done with any album or sound. If you play it over and over and say "See, he says kill your mom" over and over eventually if you expect to hear it you'll make "kill your mom" out of the sounds. I think the same thing happens with alot of EVP claims. People hear stray signals, cross modulation, etc and make things out of them that are'nt necessarily there.

HA! In High School, a couple of buddies of mine and I started talking backwards (words only, not complete sentences).  It sounded like a foreign language, and after a few days, we got pretty good at it.

We sure got some strange looks.

I tried the same thing in high school. When my family got our first computer a few friends and I tried to speak backwards and use the sound recorder to record it, and play it in reverse. It didnt work. I think we may have had too much time on our hands in high school. : )

The process you are referring to (hearing/seeing something that isn't there) is known as 'matrixing'. Your mind tries to associate what is coming to it with something that it's familiar with. In the case of sound, you can't get anything in most cases until someone points it out to you. Then your mind has that phrase (or whatever) to try to apply the sound to and usually you will be able to then "understand" the noise. Basically, it's how we recognize things but in this case, the mind is trying to recognize something that may not really be there. Sorry if this is a little confusing. I know what I'm trying to say, it's just not coming out right.

Getting OT here, but I've heard similar theories about dreams.  Basically, one theory of dreams is that they are products of our subconscious minds and have deep, hidden meanings.  Another is that while sleeping, there is essentially random electrical activity in the brain and what we experience or remember as a dream is our mind overlaying something that makes sense onto those random patterns.  A third, and the most attractive to me, is that dreams are some combination of the other two.
