Led Zeppelin's "Stairway To Heaven" Satanic??

[catlover]

If you folks are as old as I am, you will remember all the controversy about certain rock bands being satanic.

In fact some people stated "Stairway To Heaven" was about Satanism...

Def Leppard was one of those satanic bands if you remember.

Do you believe all that controversey was warrented or paranoia?

 

[WalkingforHim]

Those people were idiots.

Those people were idiots.

Who? Led Zeppelin or Def Leppard?

 

[LadyGarnetRose]

Paranoia.

Not for Def Lepard... But Barry Manilow and Chicago *shudders* the horror! The Horror!

Obviously Zeppelin is Satanic. I mean, anyone who would sing about Tolkien's LOTR or The Hobbit must be an evil spawn of the pit.

OH wait....

To the ladies kind enough to laugh in thread *bows* makes my day to make you smile

I always thought it was "hedgerow"... whats a "shedrow"?

Is that the song where you hear a supposedly Satanic message when you play it backward? My boss played that one for me once, but I could only understand what was said once he told me what the words were. It's weird, though.

That's it, a hedgerow, shedrow is a stable.

If one was to purposely cut a backwards message into an album, it would ruin the actual recording.

It's all suggestion..

"Didn't you HEAR THAT?!"

"Hear what?"

"THAT??"

"Uh no what was it?"

"<insert gobbligook here>"

I don't think so, but I'm willing to bet Tolkien helped shape the lyrical styling.

A what?

Interesting.

 

[intricatic]

Actually, I believe the song's about a woman who has a lot of money only to find out she can't buy her way into heaven. But that just seems too elemental.

Supposedly "another one bites the dust" by Queen, played backwards, says "its fun to smoke marijuana"

My school chaplain had a real bug up his backside about it...

now, the funny thing is, I had known Queen for ages before he went off on his anti-backmasking rant, and I had never EVER associated this song with marijuana use ever before. However, ever since the class when the chaplain went off about it, every single time I hear "another one bites the dust", I think "its fun to smoke marijuana"
