Dancin'Days Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Have you ever thought you knew the text to a song and then realized that you were wrong all along? When Foreigner 4 came out I thought they were saying Soul Vergin but then realized it was So Urgent. Has anyone else had this happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peep Solero Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 yeah, my boyfriend had put on a black Sabbath CD on and I thought Dio was screaming "son of a dyke"...needles to say he was just asking to turn up the night. and well there's always the time I thought that "It's the call of the seventh start" was really "it's the sound of the mountain goat". needless to say my knowledge of Sabbath is slim to none...thank god I speak Zeppelin fluantly.

lzfan715 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 When I was little I used to sing: Give me a piece of your distant mind. It was really: Give me a piece of your custard pie. Not sure how I got that, but I did. There are many others but I think that one is just really strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouncing~ship Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 lol i got a good one...keep in mind that i don't lie ok...well...the song is called Kids by the band MGMT (Phenomenal i must say) here go's my first interpretation: Enjoy your self...Take only what you need from it. A family from a tree is falling to be haunted. The Fact: Control yourself...Take only what you need from it. A family of tree's want'n...to be haunt'n. lol and i havent even experimented with heroin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanna be drummer Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 In "April 29th, 1992" by Sublime, there's a weird voice in the background that says "I feel insane" but it's incredibly hard to understand. I had always thought it was saying "I feel like sayin it" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmie ray Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 The song "Alive and Kickin'" still sounds like "I like fried chicken", and I prefer to sing along with it that way - I think the group is Simple Minds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUCK'EYE' DOC Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I used to think he was singing something like that too! Me too! How about Creedence's "Bad Moon on the Rise"?

Zepulon Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 On Stevie Wonder's "Signed, Sealed, Delivered," when he sings the line "Signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours," for years I thought he was singing, "The sky's still the limit, oh yeah!"

Aquamarine Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 House of the Rising Sun-- My version: Mum put on the black one Mother put on the drain The real words: One foot on the platform The other foot on the train And I was a "purple operator" person too. and well there's always the time I thought that "It's the call of the seventh start" was really "it's the sound of the mountain goat".

Footsteps of Dawn Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Miss You,by The Rolling Stones,I would still swear the first line is "I've been hauling ass along." Ha! I thought it was "I've been hauling ass alone." Yours makes sense at least (but mine rhymes with "phone" lol). I'm with you, though, there is definitely talk of hauling ass in that line. I have problems with the Stones, which everybody does, but even when it's not Mick I'm still lost. In Gimme Shelter, I thought the lady singing was saying, "Heyyy, all right, yeah, it's just a shot away..." I kinda missed an important piece of the puzzle there. Battle of Evermore's a good one...I thought "I hear the horses' thunder down in the valley below" was "I hear the forces asunder down in the valley below." Uh, what? And "With flames from the dragon of darkness, the sunlight blinds his eyes" became "The bane of the dragon of darkness...the sunlight inclines his eye," which I thought make sort of a cool image of the sun sort of turning to look at the people, but that has nothing to do with the dragon of darkness, oops.
