I got this idea for this recording by listening to a radio station that would play a song backwards and have the callers guess which song it was. Whoever called in with the first correct answer would win a prize or something. Half the time I knew it instantly. Other times, I didn’t have a clue, but I wanted to try it on my own record player. So, back in 1985, I recorded this popular song from a record player onto a cassette tape and I filed it away. On 11/28/13, on Thanksgiving, I dug it out again. After listening to it again, it was obvious what the song was and I decided to really blur it up using the Audacity sound editor. Now trying to guess it would probably be extremely difficult. I can still tell from bits and pieces of the song I didn’t manipulate, but the average listener may not be able to get it. I’ll give a hint: the artist is no longer with us today and the “original” song was released in 1983.
This is recording #229.

Recorded at The CELL BLOCK Studio in Auburn, WA.

about

The Santairs Auburn, Washington

I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
