what where all the props for then???
Symbolism my good man. Everyone knows its patriotic to spin a ball in a bowl. Geez!
The props were to show that it wasn’t edited to play in reverse.
They can also be used for mnemotecnic
WHAT?
who gives a damn what the props were for that was still awesome.
I thought it kinda sounded like the old Soviet National Anthem at first.
thats trippy
haha! I hella guessed the song right! and I knew he was singin it backwards.. hehe.. COOL! love it
the props were used to clarify that it isnt fake..
I like turtles!
lol, i thought he was singing, i wish you a merry xmas
the point of the props was to show you that when he was singing it in reverse, he was indeed going forward in time, hence the clock, the balloons popping, etc.
Fake
?nevaeh ot yawriats s’nileppez del od eh nac
I’ll second that, Yu: that’s trippy!
Nicely done…
mrme, you’re ignorant.

I got the song, but what’s it called again? brainfart… I know the words, just not the title.
umm… the national anthem? …. lol
Wow…nice……i love the ballons popping in reverse!!!
Impressive- VOTE RON PAUL!
RON PAUL LOVE IT!
StevieG: It has an actual title, dumbass.
Asshat: The Star-Spangled Banner.
mnemotecnic refers to anything that is used to aid memorization, for instance the song, in 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue… is an example of a memnotecnic device.
The word is mnemonic.
[...] This is a really cool video, probably won’t make a lot of sense til half way through. Guess the song - Impressive! __________________ Member of the Maverick’s Biker Club [...]
.us people know?
for me the first halve sounded the same as the second halve.
unknown..;)
Photoshop’ed.
The clock was so you can see that he originally sang it in reverse and flipped it digitally after so you could tell what song it was. same with the ball(doesn’t spiral up) and the balloons(doesn’t make them selfs) and bricks(don’t fall up)
OMG YOU ARE SO HOT!!!!!
I got until near the end and it said it was done. I didn’t see the balloons popping in reverse.

the props were to add sound effects in with the vocals, but because the sound quality of the clip was low, it was hard the hear most of the sounds on this clip.
If you speed this up even more and play it from back to front you can hear a hidden message. Something about Satan telling you to smoke crack and set your face on fire, least that’s what I heard…. I’m not allowed to talk to people anymore for some reason.
sounds like russian or something at first. very cool
Nice!!
good work, lot of thought
can this be termed as backmasking?
Obviously he recorded himself singing it properly and just reversed the video/audio tracks. You people are so easily fooled.

Mabn. You can’t pop a balloon or pour a glass of soda in reverse. You’re an idiot.
I like the part where he sang the song backwards.
reminds me of twin peaks
creativity, simple yet rocks
I wonder how many times he had to listen to it backwards before he could sing it backwards. Then to add the props…very nice!
thank you C. what the fuck else would they be for ya bunch of idiots
That was cool! very well done!
WTF whats the song pls’?!! nice vid, song sucks tho!1
Surprisingly easy to do, but nevertheless impressive, though the song was fairly unintelligible when played backwards (or the right way). Not that I’m particularly familiar with the American national anthem (that’s what it was right? I’m not just making myself look stupid here am I? :p).
The props were to show that he wasn’t just playing himself singing it in reverse, come on guys.
Also, the song was the star spangled banner(of the United States).
Awesome job, probably wasn’t easy to remember all that mishmash.
asd, you are a dork.
mabn and mrme, it was obviously real because it sounded so choppy when it was played backwards (and thus sung the right way).
and if he reversed the audio, the words wouldn’t match!
You, sir, are photoshopped.
it’s not easy making forward speech to sound backwards forward with the intention of making the recorded outcome legible after being reversed. I’ve fooled around with this a little in music, so i know that learning a melody backwards is frustrating.
I really like the effect you get when the echo is before your voice instead of after.
creepy.
He did it perfectly.. he’s just got a russian accent
To all you naysayers out there…stop naysaying. I know that internet is great for be an anon. asshat and all but really, if you watch his lips on bot the forward film “backward singing” and backward film “foreward singing” you can tell it is real. Don’t be a douche, watch it more then once before you say something is fake.
no clue
that was freaky..
it freaks me out with the reverse thing..ahahha..
it was cool though:P
i liked it:P
it was awesome:D
The props are to show that the video is being played forwards. If it was sung forwards and played backwards the stuff he was doing would have happened backwards.
