Hidden Backwards Message

The message that is repeated forwards is "number 9" accompanied by instrumental music. There is no discernable message in the reversed sound file.

MATLAB CODE

[y, Fs] = wavread('Beatles.wav');
sound(y, Fs)
x = flipud(y);
sound(x, Fs)
wavwrite(x, Fs, 'Kyle_H_reverse.wav')
