When I hear music played backwards, it wakes up a nameless, primal, and overwhelming fear. It doesn't really have a cause. It doesn't stir up any mental images. There is no convoluted stream of events I associate with it. It's just there. I can't listen to Revolution 9 by the Beatles without crying. Or the Fairly Oddparents theme backwards, for that matter.

I completely know what you mean. The other day, I decided to listen to some of the Beatles songs backwards because of the "hidden messages" and it creeped me out so much! Just thinking of the sounds makes me cringe, I think I've had auditory nightmares of them
