Flock of Seagulls - 'Iran. Iran's so far away.'

In Slayer's 'At Dawn They Sleep', the lyric is 'Impalement - immortality's scorned', but I always hear 'Impalement in metallic storm.'

If anyone did a reggae cover of Enter Sandman, they could say 'Rasta Never Never Land.'
The population explosion would be less of a problem if lighting the fuse didn't feel so good.

The Black Crowes “Twice as Hard”. During the chorus I hear “Twiiiiiice as Hard Fought” and no matter how many times I hear that song I can’t convince myself that’s not what Chris is singing. Lol.

Canadian power-pop band Harlequin had a bunch of good songs in the early '80s, but I will always call this one Anal Sex :lol:

I know Eddie Vedder said…

On a wheel, on a wizard on a wha-ee-ale
Anna Nicole’s mama said I won’t wanna see Anna fall down again
And the wizard, on Aleve a Gump I know
I said I don’t want a whale in a box or a bag


But what he really said was…I have no idea.

Actual Lyric : you can take the pity so far, but it's more than I can stand
What I hear to this day : you can take the bed and sofa cause it's more than I can stand.
I still hear this! And with the song it actually fits and makes sense.

Also Joan Jett "I love rock and roll"

Mandela Affect?? "I saw him standin there by the record machine....."

It's really "I saw him dancing there by the record machine..." I"ll never remember it that way!

Ive heard what it purported was but I was not convinced and still have no idea what the lyrics were.

On a positive note, I did learn to mumble when I have no idea what Im saying

The U2 song they play at work all the time.

I thought Bono was singing "Electric Coaster".

Apparently it's Electrical Storm

I was jamming on Judas Priests 'Fight of Your Life' a couple days ago and I swore he was saying something about being in a bathtub in the chorus, but the real word is BATTLE.

Maybe it's Rob's English enunciation, I don't know.

I had to look it up because I'm thinking NFW are Priest singing about bathtubs! :D

In the moment - when you think you're falling
It's up to you - you've got the fight of your life
In the BATHTUB - you're the last man standing
You're the victor of the fight
The fight of your life

(BTW this album is holding up well, so f'ing good!!)

Judas Priest - Fight of Your Life (Official Lyric Video)

It's good to be bad
It's the best time you'll ever have
What the hell is this ultra sad
Pray for your cool and work on that ass!

there's a bathroom on the right...
I dip my forefinger in the watery blood

and write over his thorn torn brow
