    Grin Misheard song lyrics

    These are always funny. ^_^ Which song lyrics have you misheard?

    My favourite one is how I always think that the Red Hot Chili Peppers sing "Fly away on my cellphone" instead of zephyr. And there's a song out right now called "Take me to the clouds above" and I swear they are saying "take me to the powerbird".

    But I'm sure you have some better ones.

    I mishear song lyrics all the time. I can't understand a single word of that jibberish that young people are listening to nowadays. I can't understand the words of any music except for country. Because that's REAL music. Because they don't make up words, and talk about real subjects, they are easy to understand, thus I don't.

    But I can't think of anything specific.

    Well, everyone knows that Iron Butterfly's "Inna Godda Da Vida" is really supposed to be "In the Garden of Eden."

    Here's a good list - www.kissthisguy.com

    The title of that website comes from "Purple Haze" by The Jimi Hendrix Experience - a lot of people though when he sang "Excuse me while I kiss the sky," he was saying "Excuse me while I kiss this guy."

    Oh, I got one.

    In Michael Bolton's "When a Man Loves a Woman", I mistook it as "It's a Man as a Woman."

    Anything by Pearl Jam is fair game, since Eddie Vedder sings like his mouth is full of marbles.

    I mishear engrish in japanese songs often, especially when pronounced really badly, in some cases I don't realise it's meant to be english until later
    Problems playing downloaded videos? Try CCCP

    It's kiss the sky. I just checked the lyrics on the original vinyl. Not to mention that 'kiss this guy' makes no sense.

    "The Rockafeller Skank" - Fatboy Slim

    I had no idea what they were saying... first I thought they were saying "*cough* your brother" ... then "funks yo' brother" O_o
    Actually... I didn't even know who sang it. xD
    BUT THEN I FOUND THE LYRICS THANKS TO SHOYKU OMG COOL! :D Now I know what they say. :D!
