Do I detect a hidden message in The Chain?
 

I bet you guys have already heard this one before, but I heard once (both in writing and for myself) that, at the beginning of The Chain, you can hear a thud and someone whispering "F**k" right before the song begins. Now since this is true, I have a few lingering question. What had happened? Who was the person responsible for dropping the F-bomb?

I don't remember what the reason was, but it's Lindsey swearing.

It was part of his genius. Up there with the microphones on the bathroom floor and the breaking of the glass in the rain.

This cracks me up! His "agressive sounding vocal"!

I'm not sure about a message in The Chain.
But if you play Rumours backwards everyone
gets back together and is very happy.

Yeah, I don't know about a hidden message, but the f bomb is definitely there!

Stevie is the most adorable person to ever walk the planet earth.

That's what I meant, the f-bomb being dropped. I didn't quite mean it as a "hidden message" like "Turn me on dead man" from the White Album, I just meant it seemed hidden cause you never quite think about it.

So, it was Lindsey swearing. I thought the voice sounded a bit deep and that it was a techie (hell, one was responsible for the random knocking door in Beat It cause he didn't realize they were recording), but then again, I could see him doing it.

Thanks guys! :thumbsup:

Recording snafu. Ha. Stevie's dropped it several times during demos. My fav is the LAL demo when she's trying to chord the guitar.

I don't mean to be a dumbass, but what's LAL? And can you show the demo to me?

Tell me more! :eek:

OK, I'm assuming you know the story of the "Paul is dead" hoax, but this was one bit of it. If you have the White Album on vinyl, go to Revolution 9, and during the part when the guy is saying "Number 9, number 9, number 9..." in the beginning, hand-turn the record backwards and you'll hear it.

Another hidden message I know of (but never heard) on the Motley Crue song Shout at the Devil, where Tommy Lee and Nikki Sixx try and chant "Jesus is Satan" as an underdub. Has anyone evr heard that one?

Talking about hidden messages, you can have a lot of fun listening to Stevie's songs backwards. :nod:

Ah man, my record player won't do that :( It's all automatic

Ah snap. I know mineis a old school-style Crosley i got frm Target that I somehow managed to do it with, but can your turntable play at 45 and 78 RPM?
