Actually when I first heard "Jeremy"... I was really into smoking weed, and I was pretty high at the time.

"Jeremy's smokin' ... graaaaaaaaass todaaaaaaay."

lol.

A very good friend of mine, that was actually in a band for a while thought the lyrics to the Cherry Poppin' Daddies song Zoot Suit Riot was "Zoom, Zoom Brian!" I'll never forget walking down Main Street with her when she started singing it at the top of her lungs Zoom, zoom Brian, Brian!!! I actually stopped walking and just stood there laughing. She couldn't figure out what was so funny and I couldn't stop laughing to tell her. :lol:

I always thought it was "Dunder Cheap", like some weird Australian phrase I didn't know :)

Until really recently, I always thought that "Ben, the two of us need look no more" from Rats was "Then, the two of us made love no more"

I always thought it was "Sorry seems so much sweeter" instead of "Some things are so much clearer" in RVM. Still kinda makes sense!

One I kept thinking I was hearing wrong that was actually right is "Like Pilate I have a dog." I thought that was too lame to be the actual lyrics!

Oops - it's actually "SAW things so much clearer"!

I saw things so much clearer... when looking up the actual lyrics! :oops:

In RVM, for the first few listens at least, I heard:

"Sword thieves! Sword Thieves! Sword thieves! Sword thieves! Clearer, Clearer..."

As a kid, AC/DC's "Hell's Bells":

The chorus,"Hell's bells" (quite simply), I always heard as, "have a spaz!"


If you listen to it, it does sound more like 3 syllables than 2.



Made sense to me!

Sophiee, Sophiee, Sophiee Clearer, Clearer.................
A friend of mine used to sing it like that too!!! She used to say: "Poor guy! He must love that Sophie Clearer so much...."!!!! :lol:

Alright... no laughing....ok, guess you can laugh:
When I first listened to Red Mosquito, I heard "I was bitten/Must of been the devil/He was just plain mean"
:lol:
"Makes much more sense
To live in the present tense"

"It's all state of mind"
