What was the deal about playing some song in loop while wizard of Oz is playing? Doesn't some strange stuff sync up?

If you play the whole 'Dark Side of the Moon' CD along the movie, it's supposed to sync up.

Dark Side of the Moon CD + Wizard of Oz DVD.

There is website detailing when to start your CD/Movie to make it sync. Of course, there are several more websites saying it is all crap

not the entire movie though, only up till a little after dorthy meets the tin man. listen and watch carefully, there's even a part where the midgets are dancing in time to the high hat (or cymbal, can't remember which) and the money song comes on when the movie goes into color (which i think is because it was so much more money to make the movie in color back when it was made. could be wrong though)

It is all crap.

And if you read it backwards, "Crap all is it".


Wow!

Another example of the observer-expectancy effect is demonstrated in music backtracking; some people expect to hear hidden messages when reversing songs, and therefore hear the messages, but to others it sounds like nothing more than random sounds. Often when a song is played backwards, a listener will fail to notice the "hidden" lyrics until they are explicitly pointed out, after which they are obvious.

Listen to them without reading the "reverse lyrics".

Nothing.

IDK about the Eminem one though, that's pretty accurate. A lot of the others are pretty obsure though.
