cloudseeker2001 0 #28 May 30, 2004 QuoteOf course, the old Jimi Hendrix Classic "Excuse me, while I kiss this guy.." which the site you referenced was named after... REM lyrics are famous for this, partially because of Michael Stipe's constant mumbling... Edit: I'm a weenieboy Actually, if you check out the live concert from Paris 68 or 69, that is EXACTLY what Hendrix says! If you are a Experience fan, check out Noel Reddings CD from the Hendrix site. Noel recorded a few of his own tunes before Fatt Mattress and Hendrix plays bass on 2 songs. It is kinda like the Beattles on acid! "Some call it heavenly in it's brilliance, others mean and rueful of the western dream" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peacefuljeffrey 0 #29 May 31, 2004 Misheard lyrics are some of the funniest things since the "Airplane" movies but I think that some claims of "misheard" lyrics are more appropriate termed "re-written" lyrics. I saw a book at the store once that had long lists of misheard lyrics, but many of them were just so different, phonically, from the real lyrics that it was nearly inconceivable that someone could have really thought they heard what was claimed. For example, funny as the imagery might be, I don't think someone really thought they heard, "Lucy's getting high with Linus," or "I've got owls puking in my bed"! The best "misheard" lyrics are the ones that someone actually thought they heard; not just what someone creatively mutated the real words to be, for fun. Now, my friend Chris listened to Rush's "Red Barchetta," and the line that goes, "A brilliant Red Barchetta from a better, vanished time," he thought was "Ten billion Red Barchettas are no better than this kind." I myself thought that in Rush's "Turn the Page," they were saying "shake our heads at the Chinese," instead of "shake our heads at the tragedy." Rush has a LOT of mishearable lyrics. --Jeffrey "With tha thoughts of a militant mind... Hard line, hard line after hard line!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peacefuljeffrey 0 #31 May 31, 2004 QuoteHaha.. So, what happens when you hear the RIGHT lyrics and you do a double take?? In Jethro Tulls song aqualung he says "As I bend to pick a Dog-end" ---- Um, hasn't anybody ever wondered about that one?!?!? for those that don't know, In britian a dogend is slang for a cigarette butt. Oh. I was thinking maybe they were talking about picking a dog's ass... --Jeffrey "With tha thoughts of a militant mind... Hard line, hard line after hard line!"

themitchyone 0 #32 May 31, 2004 There's always the classic "Blinded by the light, wrapped up like a deuce and a loner in the night." Who the heck says deuce like that??

happythoughts 0 #37 June 1, 2004 Of course, there is the Lords Prayer. "Our Father, whoart in Heaven, Harold be thy name..." Of course, that explains why people say "Jesus H. Christ". He was named after his dad, Harold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marz 0 #38 June 1, 2004 A friend of mine was in a band and they were playing this really tiny club in my home town. Some guy kept yelling at them to play the "fire engine song" and my bud got curious enough to stop the set and ask him what the F%^& he meant.... So the guy goes "Ya know! HENDRIX!" and he starts singing "Smoooooke eating Walter, The fire engine guy..."" Now I can't hear "smoke on the water" without cracking up laughing Marz _________________________________________ Did I just kill another thread?
