Stairway to Heaven Backwards
Everyone affiliated with this song has denied that there is any intended backmasking in this song. Nevertheless, a link to this information and a sound clip is provided as an external link on the Stairway to Heaven article along with some information in the Trivia section of that article. This speculation doesn't need its own article. Cmouse 01:49, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - I agree, this is not worthy of it's own article. Own section on the song's page, certainly. Rob Church 01:51, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator reasoning. I'd suggest a merge, but can't see anything worth keeping. --Blu Aardvark | (talk) 01:52, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator. Dpbsmith (talk) 02:14, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Send to hell (although it's not badly written, I just couldn't resist saying that. Delete as per nominator)CanadianCaesar 02:28, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Is it still copyvio when it's transcribed backwards? Oivypoc? Flowerparty talk 02:42, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. Even if not copyvio, the interpretation of the reversed words is subjective. ManoaChild 04:13, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-encyclopedic, original research. DavidH 04:36, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * delete or redirect to Backward message, where this song is mentioned. &mdash;Wahoofive (talk) 05:15, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as per above. If you listen to Slayer's Reign In Blood album backwards, you'll hear a nice recipe for banana nut muffins. Enjoy! Hamster Sandwich 05:22, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, as per above. And incidentally, that's nothing, if you listen to any Pavarotti CD backwards, you see him dancing with the Spice Girls in a thong.  My retinas will never recover. =P Xaa 10:10, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect as per Wahoofive or to Stairway to Heaven, where it is also mentioned. I had not heard this one before, but we have a nice article on the 'Paul Is Dead' phenomenon. Most of the Google hits seem to be message boards where someone goes "omg, lol check out this completely unsubstantiated rumour," but I would say that if there is enough verifiable information to justify an article it would make a valid topic. As just some made up lyrics, ehn. Eldereft 06:06, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete -- does not warrant its' own article. - Longhair | Talk 08:20, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator; perhaps redirect per Wahoofive. Barno 02:01, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
