[x,f] = wavread('Beatles.wav'); %Reads Beatles wav file and places it a matrix x for the data and variable f for the frequency

y = flipud(x); %System which flips the data for the song allowing it to be reveresed


wavplay(y,f) % Plays the reversed song

wavwrite(y, f, 'Question2.wav'); %Writes song into wav


Media:Question2.wav


% The reversed song doesn't sound like anything to me. After a quick google search its suppose to say "turn me on dead man" and then can I kind of hear it, but sounds more like "bring me on deadman".
