"Turn me on, dead man"

For those of you who are unfamiliar, that's the phrase that many people claimed they heard when playing the Beatles' Revolution 9 backwards. Now, I have no idea who first sat up one morning and said, "Hey, let's try playing the White Album backwards and see what kinds of clues might be there to help support or deny the Paul is dead rumors." But suffice to say, I tried it last night, and they're right - it's undeniable that something is being said when that song is playing backwards, and that something sounds a hell of a lot like "Turn me on, dead man." And a "song" that's essentially a bunch of recorded sounds blended together in a really weird way suddenly becomes that much more intriguing.

Why can't we have cool musical stuff like that?

"Number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9
Number 9, number 9, number 9, number 9...
El Dorado
Take this brother, may it serve you well"
