I don't think this is a backwards clue like "Number nine" If you let your imagination go, it sounds like he is saying that just as you hear it played normally. You do realize that Paul is not dead, don't you?. Elvis is dead, I have many clues to prove it must be true.

At the end of "I'm So Tired" (White Album), John is heard mumbling Something to the effect of "Monsieur, Monsieur, would you like another one?" When played backwards, he supposedly says, "Paul's dead man miss him, MISS HIM!" Can anyone help clarify this?

Actually, he sez "lessee if we can start up some more rumors by putting weird little moments into our songs".

Actually, he says pretty clearly "Awl is dead, miss him, miss him". If you have a computer with good sound, play with it. However, once I was fooling around with this (it was about a year ago), and when I played one of my things backwards it sound like "You are a ..khar.. llama".. It was awesomely funny. What I want to say, it may sound like "paul is dead" or "we'll fuck you like supermen" in fact it could not be on purpose just like my "llama"

There's a phenomenon that occurs when one hears a passage of syllables and is told beforehand what they'll sound like. I think that's what's happening here, and in most incidents throughout the Beatles' canon of reversed music.
What I hear when this passage is reversed is "Re re nu va devna, esle missile missim." I admit the last pronouncement sounds like "miss him", and I guess to some ears "devna" sounds enough like "dead man" to make a case. But it's rather a stretch, and if the hearer doesn't know what to expect, the interpretation is up for grabs. -- -------------------------------------------------------- "They're always busy---hectically busy---these Beatles." -------------------------------------------------------- s...@evolution.bchs.uh.edu * d...@midway.uchicago.edu

Something to the effect of "Monsieur, Monsieur, would you like another one?" When played backwards, he supposedly says, "Paul's dead man miss him, MISS HIM!" Can anyone help clarify this?>
One of the highlights of the Get Back Journals is when the band breaks into a rousing rendition of "I'm So Tired" with Paul taking lead vocal (Disk 1: Track 15). At the very end, Paul even mimicks John's mumbling from the White Album track saying what I loosely transcribe phonetically as, "emisega megasega ema-ema emisega pizhy pizhy" -- ri...@usa.pipeline.com

Even better from that version is Paul's fill in the break:

Interestingly, I was listening to a weekly radio show about the Beatles and when they played "Please Don't Be Long" from "Blue Jay Way" backwards, it sounded like "Paul is bloody." There's no way that this could be what they intended, but creepy nonetheless!

The attached .WAV file is the end of "I'm So Tired" running backwards. If you listen to it a few times "Paul is a dead man" does seem to be what is being said.

I always thought it sounded like, "Paulie's body." -- …Paul (C8; "Feel like you've never felt before... once more." Paul McCartney **Peace and Love, Bunnies and Moons.**
"Come and Get It: The Badfinger Tribute" will finally make it to stores (hopefully) on November 12, brought to you by the folks at Copper Records. On this mucho excellantro disc happy lissuners will find:
Come and Get It by Adrian Belew Baby Blue by Aimee Mann & Jon Brion No Matter What by the Knack (really!)
and contributions from such power pop legends as Dwight Twilley, The Loud Family, Bill Lloyd, The Plimsouls, former Apple guys the Von Eaton Brothers, Al Kooper, and many others, not to mention the very not-famous Circle Sky, featuring yours truly, doing P. Ham's Just a Chance.
Circle Sky will play the Mercury Lounge in NYC (E Houston & Ludlow Sts) tonite at 8 pm. It was planned as a record release party. But there are no records yet. As fate would have it, though, today just happens to be the day the CD re-issue of Badfinger's "Ass" is released in Europe (great album by the way). That's life I guess. So tonight we'll do "Apple of My Eye" *and* "Just a Chance"!
Hope to see you there! If you stop by, say hi (I'm the drummer)!
