One Vision intro reverse message finally understood!

After some careful listening, I am now certain that "God works in mysterious ways... mysterious ways..." in reverse, is this Japanese phrase:

"Iie, Suisei-dan... iie, suishinsha da..."

Pronounced with a British accent and some mistakes, eg. a very obvious glottal stop between Sui and sei, which, coulped with the pronunciation of a as æ, makes it very easy to mistake "Suisei-dan" for "Sweet Satan". Also "sh" mistakenly pronounced as a plain "s" (or maybe not, remember I listened to it at too fast speed, so sh's could have been distorted into s's).

A translation would be: "No, Team Mercury... no, you're the leader...".

Remember, in Japanese, Suisei (literally water planet) is planet Mercury, and suishinsha is a word for leader that someone at Queen could have come up with by making a play on Suisei.

Also the "d" in "da" is muffled, and could be mistaken as a "b", hence why "Suishinsha da" has been mistekn for "[Ye]s I've seen Sabbath".

Now, I *COULD* still be wrong, but I think this is it. A sentence involving the Japanese translation of Mercury's name and a word for leader that is almost a play on it, and the notion of leader itself matching Mercury's position in Queen.

But, I am open to convincing that I'm wrong.

Edit: Seems ""Iie, Suisei-dan... iie, suishinsha ba..." is also a valid sentence and means: "No, Team Mercury... no, if I was the leader...". Consider that the first part is in Brian's voice and the second part in Freddie's, now it sounds almost like a dialogue:

Brian: Iie, Suisei-dan...
Freddie: Iie, suishinsha ba, ...

Translation:

Brian: No, Team Mercury...
Freddie: No, if I was the leader...

Which actually does sound like a statement Freddie would make, especially when view in light of his interview statements where he said his music was "disposable" and he was "musical prostitute".

Wow.

O_O

I just edited post with an update, which basically adds this:

Yes it's backwards and distorted, but I think you'll find it is ACTUALLY Mercury saying "Paul Rodgers is my favourite singer; I would love Adam Lambert - please work with them"......
