He sings it high, he plays it low
Also the most well known Misheard lyric, Hold me closer Tony Danza instead of Hold me Closer Tiny Dancer
It isn't well known to me at all, sorry. I know the song but not the misquote.
There is a line that does bother me, from Stairway To Heaven: 'how everything still turns to gold'. I KNOW it's supposed to be 'gold' but I have never heard it as anything other than 'stone' in the studio version.
LOL these are funny. I've got one for ya.
For years I thought in the Genesis song Invisible Touch the lyric was "She seems to have a physical top shake."
I'm not entirely comfortable posting this one, but it's kinda funny, so I will.
Some number of years back I was listening to a radio station and they were having people call in with misheard lyrics. This one lady called up and said that her boyfriend or husband (I can't remember which) mistook the following line from Van Halen's Panama:
"Reach down, in between my legs, and ease the seat back."
for:
"Reach down, in between my legs, and ease the seed bag."
Now, I can't hear the song without thinking of that lady when they get to that line...
OMG Turf...I just laughed so hard when I read that...I woke up my cat and he ran off....
