"Sneaky Bugger" :3

@foreverstrange Well he is ;)

[foreverstrange]

Epic! Good that he got use out of one song!

There's a similar, albiet more public, comparison of Sun King by The Beatles. On their 200-something album LOVE there's a track titled Gnik Nus, which is the song Sun King played backwards. They're both fantastic.

[RebiiJay]

Wow, I didn't know that. I'll give that a listen.

[auuggghhh]

Not gonna lie... that is the coolest thing ever.

the backwards version is actually better than the original

@RebiiJay i was recently reading on book on David bowie and he said he was playing some tapes, accidently played one backwards, thought it was beautiful so used it x

Funny ! I have also read about this in the book "Helden - David Bowie in Berlin", thank you for the experiment.

Dave gets into recycling decades before the rest of us - ahead of his time again!!

[Chajagirl]

Cool! Never noticed :D

But this is how he did write some of the songs in "Lodger".

And it was in fact "Move On" that was based on "All the Young Dudes" backwards.

yin and yang

I was wondering what was up with "Move On". Backing vocals sounded backwards. Seems that is the case ;) Sneaky Bugger is right :D
