1979

The infamous drum beat at the beginning and the end....also, at 1:03, you may hear a jingle of a bell or something..

2:07 you may hear what sounds like a helicopter.

My friend is a DJ and he says the echoing (oooooh type deal) is a burp that is reversed and then screwed around with.

1979 Grammies '97

At the very end of the song when the crowd is cheering you can hear the intro for today.

An Ode to No One

When listening to the line: "and coil my tongue around a bumble bee's mouth" backwards it says, "I am evil"

In An Ode to No One at 0:03 you can hear wind chimes or little bells. (turn it WAY up)

Believe

very soft beeping noise at 2:18... and throughout song.

Blank

before song, it sounds like Billy is setting up, opening a water bottle.

Bodies

This one's obvious but during the second ''love is suicide'' verse, billy mutters in the background: ''destroy, despise, distrust, disobey, distrust, disarm, destroy, despise, dissect, deny, destroy, despise, distrust, disconnect''

The Boy

at 2:57-59, the producer is talking in the background..

Bullet With Butterfly Wings

if you play the whole chorus backwards some parts sound like "here are my abs"

Bury Me

At the beginning of the song, james says something like ''boys, lets do it''

By Starlight

it sounds like running water in the background, most notable 0:26-30, and 0:35-1:11.

Clones

if you play the first verse of clones (i'm a clone i know i'm fine i'm one of more on the way) it sounds like ( i wanna phone the wrong number ahhh phone it up one time)

Cupid de Locke

the shaking sound used for the drum part is actually an aspirin bottle.

Daydream

throughout the song you can hear tinkly noises in the background, they kinda sound like seashells in the ocean. Some people think that it is somebody's bracelets hitting against each other.

Destination Unknown

At about 3:16 you can here something like "I love my sister" coming from the right speaker.

Disarm

at very end, you can hear opera singers (turn it up very loud)

Eye

somewhere in the middle of eye played backwards it sounds like James James.. why did you go

Geek USA

during the first drum part, you can hear a man talking...(turn it up)

God

if you play the chorus backwards, you hear "I am helpless, I want to die."

Also play backwards, it says:
love is lost
to you make it feel
if we want to
lost never try behind the scene
ooh,i win your...(never finishes)

In the Arms of Sleep

there is a "woo woo" noise at 2:06, 2:12-14, and at 2:30-40, where it sounds like someone sobbing... also of course the weird breathing at the beginning...

Lily (my one and only)

note that sounds like a "synth horn" at 2:34.5

Meladori Magpie

at 0:02, you can hear the slide object touch the strings of the guitar

Obscured

around 0:10 theres billy going love or help or no.

Porcelina of the Vast Oceans

at these times: 4:37, 39, 41, 42, 44, 46, 54, 58, and 59, sounds like a weird raygun effect. Also at the beginning, the intro, from about 0:32-2:12, it sounds like steam being released from a tea kettle.

Quiet

at about 2:40 in quiet you can hear Billy mumbiling in the background. It sounds like he says "Word Up".

Soothe

this is old but its a response to something some guy had on his site saying it was hung me,but it really is hungry.if you stick your ear right next to the speaker you can hear the faintest trace of his tongue reverberating off the r.

Spaced

at 1:44.5, in the background, you can hear James cough (turn it up)

Stumbeline

I believe that at the end of Stumbeline, if you turn it up very loud and put your ear up to the speaker, you can hear people moving insterments, and Billy begin to say something, but then it skips to the next track.

The End Is The Beginning is the End

I noticed what sound like bats chirping or making noise after the second chorus.

Tonight, Tonight

If you listen to the song backwards, this is what you may hear:
ask
master vegsley(all i could get)
what am i
my little aeromaid
oh i been
dreaming sleepily
slash the rope that ties
yes we win the battle

night

We Only Come Out At Night

there is a high-pitched noise in the background throughout the whole song...

Zero

if you play the song backwards, at some parts it sounds like "she is god.."

Played backwards, says:
i always knew(lose)
if ever all my life
shed the burners (something "burn".not quite sure)
it would not save me
god says this not
send me life
send me life
send me love
send me love
or
descend me high
descend me high
descend me low
descend me low
