[net.music] Paul is dead, backwards messages

terryl (05/27/82)

     Let's not forget The Magical Mystery Tour album also had some references
to Paul's death, the most obvious one which was in the picture book that came
with the album; there is a picture of Paul sitting at a desk with a nameplate
of "I was" on the desk!!!!!!

     On the subject of backwards messages, on Cheap Trick's "Heaven Tonight"
album there is a song titled "How Are You". Near the beginning of the song,
there is a voice that is talking very rapidly, supposedly a "female voice"
on the telephone(no, this is not a sexist remark). But if you play that
section at 1/8 the original speed (33 1/3 RPM) you will hear The Lord's
Prayer!!!!It takes a really steady hand, and you have to turn the volume up
quite a bit to hear it, but there is no mistaking what it is. While I was
a student at good ol` UC of Berkeley, a local radio station interviewed
Rick Nielsen, who plays lead guitar and writes most of the songs, why they
did that. His answer was something of the nature that they couldn't think
of anything more positive of spoken words they had heard. But the radio
station also found some psychiatrist who said that listening to that song
will make certain people depressed!!!!!! Now who do you believe?????
