And apparently it sounds 'just like a ghost' singing to you. A short recording of a woman singing the French song "Au clair de la lune, Pierrot repondit" was recorded on a phonautograph (see below) and played back recently. Made in 1860, amazingly the sound is recorded basically by scratching sound waves onto blackened paper.....It sound so much more complicated than burning a CD does to me - and I cant even do that! lol

This was on the news not too long ago. The sound that the old recording makes is REALLY creepy!
