Incomprehensible singing
« on: August 19, 2007, 04:28:05 PM »
Ok guys, I fancied starting a thread about misheard lyrics.
Please post the misheard lyrics, the song title, the singer and the artist. The next person rates it for how close to the original it actually sounds.
I'll star off with the worst diction I can think of off the top of my head.
UNDER A GLASS MOON
DREAM THEATER - JAMES LABRIE

Liquid shadows, canned margerine
Liquid shadows silence their screams.
A spider at the mark chasing water from the sky
I argue with the clowns stealing beauty from my arse

(LATER...)
Buy a pen.
I'm a w**ker.
Baby sauna in my name.

(the original lyrics don't make that much sense either :wink: )

Close this due to lack of interest.
EDIT-or not as it may now seem.

I'm interested! But I can't think of anything, lol. :lol:

Some of these may help inspire people though:

There are some funny misinterpretations about-there used to be a site called kiss this guy or summat. The drummer of my band once wrote out the lyrics for us to sing-My Girl and wrote- I got more honey than the birds engineered instead of "Got so much honey that the bees envy me" and for "Whiskey in the Jar" wrote "I first produced my pistol and then produced my ray gun"-he was serious.

that Trivium one was right on the money.
To be fair the Under a glass moon stuff was an adaptation of some youtube stuff.
Also a lyric from 'take the time'
I need a new lawn, new voice, new wig!

there'a a System Of A Down song where he shouts "they like to push the weak around".  without thinking about it for ages i thought he said "push the WIG around"!!  in fairness, some of their lyrics are a bit odd  :roll:

hmmm... my band; Aghast are pretty suspect for such things...


in one of our songs it sounds like our vocalist is singing

'imitation sausage covers Michael flaterly'

whereas the lyrics actually

'imitations' the sincerest form of flattery'

There's always the classic...
'Beelzebub has a devil for a sideboard'
or
'Sue Lawley, Sue Lawley, Sue Lawley...'
or even
"Me ears are alight.'
