    Another one Bites the Dust played backwards? Marijauna. Stairway to Heaven? Satan Worship. Skyward Sword's main theme? Well... 
    I've never been one to believe that anyone could intentionally hide something in a song played backwards (except Weird Al) but this one is certain. Nintendo did this on purpose, no doubt. 
    Check it out:  
        

        
         
    It's pretty clear that the main theme is Zelda's Lullabye backwards. This is a pretty neat little Easter Egg! I'm surprised it is so clear. I think it's a neat bit of fan-service too. I'm shocked anyone was able to find this. Who plays songs backwards?  
     
    Compare to this: 
      
      No question, really. Neat!

    OP, thanks for using GiantBomb's forums! 
    You may not have known, but everybody clearly knew this months ago. Not to mention, we already have a topic on this here.  In the future, I recommend using the site's search feature to find topics that may be similar to the one you're about to post. If you do that, you'll never make a complete fool of yourself, as you have just done. 
    I'm going to go ahead and lock this now. Take care, OP!
