Here Today... Gone To Hell!

found this site when i was surfing around a little, it was about how different people have misheard lyrics to songs and singing their versions and stuff and how they found out the right lyrics


and if we all were honest, we have all done that sang wrong lyrics, so if you remember when you yourself has corrected somebody or you have been corrected please post it, it's real funny.

like one guy thought Paradise city went (copy paste thingie)
"The real lyrics were:
Turn me around and
take me back to the start

But I misheard them as:
Don't be a rabbit,
take me back to the start
"
another guy thought "take me down to a very nice city"

so like i said if you have any experience of this please post, and yeah here is the site http://www.kissthisguy.com/ and if you find anything funny there post it here also.. yeah you guys get it ;)

another funny one: marilyn manson - "the beautiful people" but the person sang "just gimme the meatball" :rofl:
one person sang "where's my asian friend" the real lyrics are "what's my age again" from blink 182
one guy that right next door to hell was, "redneck go to hell"

this next is from FreakShow at gnr2k.com

Nine Inch Nails: Closer

The real lyrics were:
I want to f*ck you like an animal
You get me closer to god

But I misheard them as:
I want a duck shaped like a triangle
You give a toaster to Bob

and to be fair, one of my own were:
"trapped in america but where's my partner"

but we all know it is "Capitain America's been torn apart now"

please post your own or funny ones you find at that site :headbanger:

Hendrix "Excuse me while I kiss the sky" was often mis-heard as "Excuse me while I kiss this guy."

 ::) :hihi:

Old, but still pretty good....

-PEACE-

Ps. Great find, that site! Thanks for sharing!

I thought for a long time that the line in "Master of  Puppets" is "Controlling faster" when in reality it's "Come crawling faster.

Oh and in Nirvana's "Verse Chorus Verse" I heard Kurt say "Feelings are outdated"(that sounds actually something like he would say) but the line is "Feeling so sedated"

"take me down to the paradice city where the rugrats scream and the girls are icky"

                                                                                        - Me, preschoool
                 
 :hihi:

 :rofl: that one is absolutely priceless hadn't seen it before so thanks? : ok:

Opeth has tons of misheard lyrics...

Leave it be, it was meant for me ---> Leave the pee, it was meant for me

There's innocence torn from its maker ---> His anus is torn from its maker

What came and distorted your sight ---> Caveman distorted your sight

The Days of the New song off their last album is called "Fighting With My Clay".  I always thought Travis sang "Fighting with Brocolli". :hihi:

a friend of mine is the king of misheard lyrics. off the top of my head, a few of his good ones are:

"Rock the asphalt" for Rock the Casbah by the Clash
"I'll never be your pizzas burnin" instead of "I'll never be your beast of burden"
"I think I'm Tony Japanese" instead of "I think I'm turning Japanese"
"I wanna rock n roll all night, and part of every day"

i wish i could remember more, some are so far off from the real lyrics yet I somehow always know what song he's trying to sing

On the last line of the song, Groovin', I always thought he was saying, "Life would be ecstasy, you and me and Leslie". I just found out recently that it's "Life would be ecstasy, you and me endlessly". 

I don't know why but when I was a kid I thought that in master of puppets james screams "make some pain!!" just before the solo but what he actually says is "fix me!!!"  :hihi:

I heard GNR's version of Sympathy For The Devil first and instead of "pleased to meet you", I was hearing "they used to beat you" (especially later in the song when the music is louder).

On Led Zeppelin's Trampled Under Foot, the line "good electric" kept sounding like "gooey left trigger" (:o) or something. And for some reason, the lyrics on my iPod read "groovy leather trim". I just copy and pasted from a lyric website...

I believe Megadeth covered Anarchy In The UK by the Sex Pistols and the line "another council tenancy" becomes "and other cunt-like tendencies".

And although I know the words are "cars are crashin' every night" in It's So Easy, I sometimes think it sounds like he's starting to sing "fuck off" instead of "cars are..."

I'm betting there's a pretty high correlation between the use of death vocals and lyric misinterpretation.  :hihi:

Haha, sure... But those were all clean vocals, though :)

Don't Cry:

"Cause I'm having a ball now baby"

"There's a heaven above you baby"

"I just got into town about an hour ago ... I took a look around ..."

"You can take the pity so far"

"You can take the biggest sofa"

That was what I thought axl sang in  You could be mine

I have a live version where he does actually sing "Excuse me while I kiss that guy"

For a long time I thought that Pet sematery by Ramones had the chorus go like

"I don't want to be merry in a Pet Sematary"

While it really goes

"I don't want to be buried in a Pet Sematary"

theres a new showon american TV coming on called the singing bee and its pretty much just like what we have talked about

I would have to hear it to believe it, and I still don't think I would. I can't see what LSD has in common with homoeroticism.

I thought the same thing until I read this post...?

onother Nightwish  misheard lyrics at this time with song Romanticide still very funny  :rofl:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JejrPAZxJ5c

AHahahahhaa ! Thanks for the laughs ! lol ! Hamster ! A dentist ! lol !

For about 5 years i misheard some of my favourite manson lyrics;
on song called coma white, I kept hearing
"Just bleeding like a polaroid,
lost on her dose"

instead of "lost all her dolls", which it originally is.
Song named Mechanical Animals i heard as
"You were my mechanical bride
a  xeno-barbidoll,
a manic queen of depression"

while correct lyrics are
"You were my mechanical bride
You were phenobarbidoll
A manniqueen of depression"

(and yes i realize those are not fun in any  way;)

Also, when i was around 10 or so i thought Axl sings "I'll go to Africa" instead of "i'm a cold  heartbreaker"on YCBM. And later on on the same song; "... an another reason to cry" sounded to me like "and americans cry"
..Which ofc made  sense. With Axl going to Africa and all. I had the YCBM lyrics all figured out as you can see. 8)

I think all of my misheard versions are by far better than the originals, including the Africa-thing :rant: :rant:

Slightly offtopic but hey;
My 2nd or 3rd gnr related product was a copied casette that consisted of like 50% of AFD and lacked any song titles. So i had to try to figure them out. I actually happened to find the casette some time ago, was good for laughs
My version of my michelle was named "well well well", my Anything goes was "my way you way" and so on. I actually had managed to get rocket queen right, which i am ofc very proud of. :smoking:

well i just heard STP-meatplow

i hear the chorus bit as "ive got another man, and she shows me how" WTF lol that must be wrong.

Yeah thats what i thought until i downloaded triviums version and realised my mistake :hihi:

You know...I never really thought these were the lyrics, but if I'm not paying attention I still hear them this way to this day:

"I used to love her, but I had tequila."  Funny thing is, that lyric kind of makes sense.   :hihi:

When talking about misheard GN'R lyrics I thought for some time that the line from 14 years was

But it's been
14 years of asylum
It's been
14 years of pain

Yeah I made that mistake too.

i'll contribute with 2 of my own now

Stone Sour - Hell & Consequences

correct lyrics is: if you don't want an enemy don't fuck with my life

I heard: if you don't want an enemy don't fuck with my wife

then a swedish song but i'll translate the part to english so you understand how weird it sounds if you'd sing it :hihi:

Lillasyster - ber?tta det f?r lina

correct lyrics: Stulen av en korp (means "stolen by a raven)

I heard: Stulen av en korv (means "stolen by a sausage")

Nice... an old Young Rascals reference.

I heard a guy requesting a song on the radio and he kept asking for "Living in the Bronx" after awhile the D.J. said "By who?" and the guy said yeah by The Who.? It was Eminence Front he was looking for.

My daughter also thought Pearl Jam's Better Man that Eddie Vedder was singing "Can't find the butter Man".? She was 5 then and now 15 and I still bring it up to her and laugh about it.

 :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:Yellow Ledbetter (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLd22ha_-VU) :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

If you haven't seen this, check it out. Funny as hell.

tom petty - american girl:

a bullet in your head is how i want it
your body on the floor
a cold dead moment

The distillers - drain the blood:
correct lyrics:
I never met a pearl quite like you, who could
shimmer and rot at the same time through

i sing it as:
i never met a boy quite like you
semi-erotic, the same time blue

This ship is in the Balkans? in the cold November Rain

That can't be right.  ::)

Well i thought it was...

"You can take the bed and sofa"....

KoRn - Wake Up

Correct:
I can't take no more

you are my brothers
each one are beautiful

sabbath - electric funeral

Turns people into clay, radiation minds decay

Turns people into clay, radiation must be gay

I heard that new Kelly Clarkson song on the radio and I thought she was singing about women's liberation rights or something, because I could've sworn she was singing:

"woah woah, I do not cook, woah woah, I don't sew"

Turns out she was singing this:
"woah woah, I do not hook, up, up, I go slow"

 :hihi: :hihi: :hihi:

What the hell does that even mean?  Is it a song about fishing?

It's So Easy--

Misheard - It feels so right, when I fade into the night
Correct - It fits so right, when I fade into the night


Rolling Stones -- Miss You

Misheard -- I've been hauling ass along,
Correct -- I've been holding on so long,


Black Sabbath -- Paranoid

Misheard - I tell you to end your life, I wish I could, but it's too late
Correct - I tell you to enjoy life, I wish I could, but it's too late

that's what i'm singing too  :hihi:

Damn I knew a lot of this stuff. But now I cant remeber not even one,.,,  >:(

I only recently found out that in The Killers' Mr. Brightside, the line is "open up my eager eyes" and I thought it was "open up my evil eyes". I prefer "evil" TBH. ;D

From KissTheGuy.com:

Bryan Adams "Summer Of 69":

Got my first real sex dream,
I was 5 at the time.
Played it till my fingers bled.
It was the summer of 69.

and...

Standing on your mother's corpse,
You told me that you'd wait forever.
Oh, and with the hammer in my hand,
I knew that it was now or never.

Killer. :rofl:

Sorry but I think most of this thread is a work

no way most of these could be misheard this badly.

I suppose, but remember that English isn't the native language for a lot of posters...

Oh yeah

that explains some of those

And most importantly, English isn't the native tongue for a lot of singers, either... Also, words sound way different when they're sung, especially depending on the amount of emotion etc. that has been put on the vocal delivery.

Right Next Door to Hell one cracked me up :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I've been thinking that the opening lines to The Stone Roses' Love Spreads were "Love spreads around/Waits there for the neighbours", but it turns out it's actually "Love spreads her arms/Waits there for the nails". The real version is probably better.... ;D

overheard my mother singing "obla di obla da like a soldier" today

a classic of my own that i still sing sometimes

mot?rhead - ace of spades
you know i'm goin' to lose and back aways for fools

real lyrics-  you know i'm born to lose and gambling's for fools

Misfits - Hybrid Moments:
"Give me a moment" sounds like "Give me your moped" in my head.. great song though!

blink 182 - what's my age again

real lyrics:
I took her out, it was a Friday night
I wore cologne to get the feeling right

my version:
I took her out, it was a Friday night
I walked alone to get the feeling right

never made any sense to me that he took her out, but walked alone ;D
