Am I the only one who purposely messes up the lyrics to songs? Let's take Raspberry Beret for example...

Prince: "I said now overcast days never turned me on..."
Me: "I said now verrucose veins never turned me on..."

I've been saying that for years. Don't know why, it's just stuck in my head.

Do I hear crickets? Is this dumber than a Natasha thread? Zero stars or what??? CONFESS!

Oh,Calhoun. You Clown you! Zero -negative.stars. No,actually you are Funny!...

Although I don't post here often, I like/agree with most of your posts CalhounSq. The vericose veins thing cracks me up.

After listening to the One Nite Alone CD a few times, Avalanche was running through my mind. I caught myself singing "Abraham Lincoln was a waitress". I was like..huh..where'd I get that?!?

My other one is from All The Critics Love You In New York. I couldn't understand where he said "It's time for jazz to die", so I replaced it with "It's time to Jazzercise". Still sing it that way too while thinking gawd I'm such a dork!

You're Cute with the Jokes.

IstenSzek,

man,
you always have beautiful avatar's
but now you outdid yourself,
great,
people we have an artist among us!

In "Sign O The Times" at first I thought he was saying "Let's fall in love, get a man, have a baby" as if 2 suggest a threesome.

'The Lightning Seeds' (a Liverpool band) did a pretty good job of messing up the lyrics of 'Raspberry Beret'. They actually believed it was "thunder drowns out all the lightning seeds" - hence their name - , instead of "thunder drowms out what the lighning SEES". Hilarious...

I remember Dave Lee Travis (an old BBC DJ) repeatedly playing a clip of Purple Rain on his radio show about 10 years back.

He was convinced that the line
"I know, I know times are changin" was

"I know, I know God's a chicken".

He must of played it about twenty or so times, even I was convinced in the end - go have a listen, see what you think!

Prince's lyrics is like a guitar student trying figuare out a guitar masterpiesce. Prince nows music, and extremes it with any instrument including voice. Making 2 sylable words into one, all the time.

my girl does this one all the time "come on get lost in the mellow yellow"

Mellow Yellow is a "coffee shop" in Amsterdam. If I remember correctly it was the very first of those shops in Amsterdam too.
