do you believe that zeppelin put it there on purpose or is it a coincidence?

yes

From what I've heard, the Zeppelin thing is true and how else could it have gotten there? And plus, the song itself can be seen as a satanic reference. Also, from what I've heard, other backwards masking messages include:
1. Another One Bites the Dust. Queen (the message is supposedly drug reference)
2. (even though I hate it and it's not rock, but since we're on the subject of backwards masking) Hit Me Baby One More Time. Britney Spears (the message is supposedly "sleep with me. I'm not too young")

yeah i heard about all kinds of backmasking
especially in Beatles songs

but i simply cannot believe that the stairway to heaven message was on purpose

only one part is clear enough to even come close to matching the lyrics that people claim are in it

the part about the toolshed is somewhat audible but not enough to make it true in my book

I think that's wishful thinking on the part of some sweaty internet nerd.

Ooh, right. Forgot about that one. Take a look at this: Paul is Dead Wikipedia article

I can't believe how lengthy and complex it is. It's just really interesting, I guess

i just don't see how its possible for a message to not be put there on purpose, i mean its pretty understandable what hes saying, i think its all there on purpose

Maybe the producer(s) and/or mixer(s) wanted to do it for fun... or there's always the solution that makes more sense: the artist is lying about not using subliminal messages.

i wish more artists would do it today!

they supposedly put satanic messages in the original record that can be heard by playing the record backwards

look it up on youtube to hear it or wikipedia to read about it

Satanic messages, eh? Save us save us.

The words seems preety harmless to me, found more saying the http://www.myguitarbuddies.com/stairway-to-heaven-backwards-1312.html#1312 same thing

So I worked as a missionary in Ukraine for a few years, and while I was there this old lady invited me and my two team mates over to crack walnuts. It was a very confusing day since we didn't hardly speak Russian, and she didn't hardly speak English (although she tried far too often and was slurred in both languages because of a stroke). Anyway. The day ended with her promising us she would play us some Christian music before we left. So she pulled out an old record player and we gathered around it on the floor and she played "Stairway to Heaven". We laughed at first, and she seemed offended. That's when we realized that she seriously thought Led Zepplin was a Christian Rock group. It was great.

I can't hear the song now without laughing.
