Hear Anna's reverse speech as she sings. Anna was diagnosed with Autism at the age of two. Autism is epidemic.
Many families are trying to recover their children from the effects of Autism.

Thanks to bio-medical and behavioral interventions, Anna has improved tremendously. Recovery is possible. Anna is proof. Support the National Autism Association.

  • Good job on the reversal, I just have one suggestion. When she says "So don't be erasing" If you listen close to the next part there is no "to" so it should be "I'll be their answer". Listen to it again and you will see I'm right. This is interesting as it changes the meaning of what she was saying, which is that she will be the answer for other people.

    Also, I'm curious what was before the "Can't hear us God" I get the sense that there is more connected to this reversal.

  • @blueturtle39

    The word "to" can be missed because it is a bit softer and the music seems to over power it. Thanks for taking such a close look at the wording. I couldn't find any other reversals in the song (not to say I couldn't have missed one).

    "Can't hear us God. So don't be erasing. I'll be there to answer" occurs in the video I responded to at about 2:30. You can see the emotion in her face as she raises her arms and head upward. I found that to be a profound reversal.

  • I can't say yay or nay on the vaccines. All I can truthfully say is what I'm experiencing and have experienced. My son was fine and developing normally. He could speak as a 16 month old should, and in full sentences. He was taken for some final vaccinations and days later, he had backed up to communicating like a 6 month old. My son will soon be 4 years old. I firmly believe a vaccine caused it. It doesn't effect every child just the same as why some kids are allergic to peanuts and some aren't.

  • Very interesting. The reversals are more coherent and longer in the autistic child than any reversals I ever heard. Makes me wonder if autism brings the subconscious up to the conscious level and that's why autistic people think by visualizing and have problems with abstraction.

  • Vaccines and genetically modified foods like corn that contain higher than normal levels of naturally occurring pesticides. That's what we have to keep our children free of.

  • Someone is wacky and it aint anna

  • Ridiculous and horrible. Karma is a bitch.

  • this is stupid bullshit

  • lol

    

  • this girls singing is about as awful as the concept of reverse speech...

  • @MrJakeo555 I believe you may be generalizing. It is possible that some of the great artists were autistic, but I don't think it's fair to the non autistic community to say all of them were. Not every great mind or talent comes from an autistic individual. Also, autism isn't brain damage. My 4 year old son is autistic, but he is not brain damaged as that can only happen due to some kind of head trauma or lack of oxygen for a significant period of time. Neither of these happened to my son.

  • @ShawnHS I feel the second reversal says "can't hear us God, so don't be erasing, I'll be that answer"

    'that' instead of 'there to'. What do you think?

  • Vaccinations cause autism...
