Heh, I saw this over the summer. All of them work too (I think). I’ve reversed the Stairway to Heaven and also the Empty Spaces myself.

They actually think its a reference to when page was growing up. I don’t remember the history behind it, but if you google long enough, you’ll find it.

Actually the toolshed is a reference to Page buying one of Crowley’s old houses. (Alester Crowley was a ceremonial magician who refered to himself as the Beast 666)

Jimmy Page, who actually wrote the song, lived in a house that had a toolshed. The toolshed was built on the site of a burned down church that had burned while the congregation was still inside. The references to both Satan and the toolshed in the backmasked messages of the song are supposed to refer to the pain and suffering experienced by the congregation.

look on the dollor bill then look at this link

money is the root of all evil and we havent even noticed we use it every day. The song shows that things can have “two meanings” like the dollor bill and the 666 sign of the beast the tool shed is just an example of a future hell.
it is almost time.

Help us god is right. with satan controlling and influencing so many things in the world we need gods help. and for all the people out there who dont seem to understand why a toolshed could be a place of suffering, tourture artists had a wide variety of tools at their disposal and would often work in small confined places with dirt floors to soak up the blood. even if it wasnt refering to the devices of a tourture artist, a saw blade or a rasp even would be quite painful when brought to flesh. i think toolshed was used to create an image of dangerouse items that can maim and cause pain. Being a christain it kinda freaks me out the fact that i get such a strong feeling of deja vu when i heard that line.

Am I the only one that think that most of those reversible messages are really forced, they just found famous songs and were looking for lines that said something about ‘Satan’ basically lol.
That said, Brad should so work in a backwards message into one of his songs :)
