For anyone over the age of thirty, this is old news . . . really old . . . The Stairway to Heaven: By Led Zepplin
http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/stairway.php
Now, my friends have never heard of this, and were freaked out by it, as with similair Backmasking albums, and with the publicity these have braught on the records, it's easy to beleive that these have been heard and implimented before and after the coincable outlook.
Perhaps, now, someone will be inspired to do a full-on gallery of bits from The White Album by the Beatles that were so inspirational to Charles Manson. Or . . . better yet . . . the infamous "love song to baal" and "kill the children" and similar nasty bits hidden in those early Frank Sinatra tunes. Or, the "I hate my life" and "father lust" and "death I adore thee" lines hidden in the poetry of Emily Dickinson.
My Theory is: One of the symbols used on the album is a sacred symbol for the Devil by the Rocicrucians(spelling?); It's comprised of 3 6's. The band was living in Crowley's castle, after he died, and in their autobiography, they said the song practically wrote itself. It was written right out of sleep when the brain is on subconcious mode(alpha brainwaves, attuning to the leftover psychic energy); The hand was on autopilot. On the album cover is a picture of Lucifer falling from Heaven becoming Satan. Lucifer was God's favorite angel; He was in charge of music. But, he was instructed to play music with only bells, and he disobeyed God, so God made an example of him. The band was living in a castle infused with Magick. When you pluck a g-string on a guitar, a guitar sitting next to it's g-string will vibrate in harmony. Try noticing 'yourself as a guitar" in various places with extreme vibrations. The more volunteering you are about it, the more powerful the effect. The band was studying Satanism and various occult teachings, and even moved into the castle of the recently deceased "wickedest man alive"; They practically volunteered to vibrate at the level of the Devil. In Satanism, followers are encouraged to learn to read, speak, and write backwards,a sort of cryptical tongue, so to speak, hence backmasking.
I think the backwards message was well planned. Some say its not, though - But how often do u find backwards messages that LONG and that makes sense in a song? I dont think you do, to be honest. I found this explanation of the backwards message on another forum "The part, "Oh, here's to my sweet Satan." is supposed to be showing that the message is to be dedicated to the one they love, their "sweet" Satan. Then the part, "The one whose little path would make me sad, whose power is Satan" is to show that the way going to, and entering hell is a sad one, because they have to suffer for all of eturnity in hell. "Oh, he'll give you, give you 666." is to show that once your in hell, he'll give you the mark of the beast, which is fortold in the book of Revolations, Chapter 3, that all who believe in Satan shall bare 666 which is the mark of the beast. "There was a little toolshed where he made us suffer, Sad Satan." This could either be, that if Jimmy Page truley did write the song to be like this, that he is reffering to Crowley's house, which they reffered to as "The Toolshed" that brought suffering to all those that worshiped Satan there. Or if the spirit wrote this, it could be reffering to the toolshed as hell, and that all who go there are made to suffer, from Satan. The reason the Spirit could have chosen this song to give out it's message, was to show that the Evil would over come the Stairway to Heaven. "
Some may find it coincadental that the Reversed song was mesmorizing "The Road to Hell", and the regular song was "The Stairway to Heaven."
I wasn't too sure about all of this at first, though I did happen to know a lot of backround knowledge about the Gothic Religions, and most Bibles, I wanted to check myself, I beleive this is how the full song goes: played backwards, hear words sung.
"All to you. all aways. I know your with me. all to the weaping men. oh yes I see the river. Oh how I miss you. crying in the river so deap - your
the one who I chose to worship. you're the one whos in me. ohh you see me cause I live with satan. whos always with me, hes satan. hell never turn me off. (cant understand). there is not yesterday. oh heres to my sweet satan. one little path whould make me sad, his power is satan. hell give you, give you 666. once in a toolshed where he made us suffer, sad satan. hell find away to get lose, get off of me, and no one said no. get off of me. and no one said no. and no one said no. (cant tell)(cant makeout) I'll leave for satan. and no one said no. and no one said no. oh I wish the lord would of.....(I know hes saying something, i just cant make it out.)

Lyrics of the Song with minor interpretation by myself:
There's a lady who's sure all that
glitters is gold.
referring to someone who takes the best of everything
And she's buying a stairway
to heaven.
Beleiving a shy sense of faith will bring her to heaven.
And when she gets there she knows
if the stores are closed.
she'll know if she had been accepted.
With a word she can get
what she came for.
To come to heaven
There's a sign on the wall
but she wants to be sure.
reffering to the 'Golden Gates'
Cause you know sometimes
words have two meanings.
The reversatile song
In a tree by the brook
there's a songbird
Peacefulness
who sings sometimes.
All of our thoughts are misgiven.
Faith or religion
There's a feeling I get when
I look to the west.
The west as reffered in the Bible for Bliss
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
Multi-interpreted
In my thoughts I have seen
rings of smoke
through the trees.
And the voices of those who
stand looking.
Shame of life that has been spent unthankfull or that have been ignored
And it's whispered that soon
if we all call the tune.
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
Refferring to the Demon that holds the flames of hell
And a new day will dawn
for those who stand long.
If you suffer, you will be rewarded
And the forests will echo
with laughter.
Happiness
And it makes me wonder.
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
don't be alarmed now.
If you haven't been high in faith or religion
It's just a spring clean for
the May-Queen.
Yes there are two paths
you can go by.
Heaven or Hell
But in the long run.
There's still time to change
the road you're on.
Change your way, and beleive
Your head is humming and
it won't go- in case you don't know.
The piper's calling you to join him.
Temptation - bad
Dear lady can you hear
the wind blow.
Good calling for you
And did you know
your stairway lies on the
whispering wind.
The stairway to heaven
And as we wind on down the road.
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know.
Where your faith lies - God
Who shines white light
and wants to show.
How everything still turns gold.
multi-interpreted
And if you listen very hard
the tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all.
To be a rock and not to roll.
Without any negativity to the zeps, (which by the way are awesome) I posted this, I would like to know what everyone thinks of this old contrivercial affect that has inspired many.
