"I like short people, I like tall people"

Cliff Richard- Wired for Sound

It is, though, isn't it?

 

[subversplat]

"I'll send an SOS through the post" by the Police.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

When I first got Nevermind, I played it to a mate and he thought Kurt Cobain was singing "Likes all the pretty songs and he likes a Jewish cunt"...

 

[Annierak]

It is, though, isn't it?

You know it isn't

It's 'I like small speakers, i like tall speakers'

 

[danny la rouge]

You know it isn't

It's 'I like small speakers, i like tall speakers'

No! I've never known that.

That's the 2nd thing I've learned from this thread.

 

[madzone]

Goodbye and I choke,
Try to walk away and I stumble,
Though I try to hide it, it's clear,
I blow bubbles when you are not here

 

[Annierak]

How old are you?

Come on, everyone of a certain age knows that!

 

[Maggot]

Take a load of fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load of fanny
Aaaaaaaand put the load right on me.

Close but no cigar.

 

[Maggot]

Goodbye and I choke,
Try to walk away and I stumble,
Though I try to hide it, it's clear,
I blow bubbles when you are not here

I thought she was singing 'Goodbye my chuck' and was therefore a northerner.

 

[Maggot]

I'm courting a tramp
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby

"Watch out strange cat people, little red rooster's on the prowl."

Except that turned out to be real.

Like "Scuse me while I kiss this guy."

I didn't! I had no idea until right now

We need the right lyrics too or me and cloth ears la rouge will still be confused

Not quite a song but I used to think the lord's prayer was: 'Our lord in heaven, Harold be thy name ...'. This was because I never saw it written down and my dad used to shout 'Jesus H Christ' so I thought Harold was his middle name

ps what are the real words for 'she really don't like it'. I always thought that's what they were singing x 10

Here ya go, the full lyrics..........

I like small speakers i like tall speakers
If they've music they've wired for sound

Walkin about with a head full of music
Casette in my pocket and Im gonna use it-stereo
-out on the street you know-woh oh woh...

Into the car go to work Im cruisin
I never think that Ill blow all my fuses
Traffic flows-into the breakfast show-woh oh woh...

Power from the needle to the plastic
A.m.-f.m. I feel so ecstatic now
Its music Ive found
And Im wired for sound

I was small boy who dont like his toys
I could not wait to get wired for sound

I met a girl and she told me she loved me
I said you love me then love means you must like what I like-
My music is dynamite-woh oh woh...

She said-Im not a girl you put on at a stand by
I am a girl who demands that her love is amplified
Switch in to overdrive-woh oh woh

Power from the needle to the plastic
A.m.-f.m. I feel so ecstatic now
Its music Ive found
And Im wired for sound

When the dead survive/When the debts arrive
In Flight, By Amusement Parks on Fire. I still think my Zombiegaze version is better.

I thought you were joking when you said you had no shame

Shush.....i liked it as a small child, i don't wanna talk about it...........

I think it "Shah, he don't like it."

There is also of course the ever-popular "Ooooooh... my ears are alight."

 

[Annierak]

I think it "Shah, he don't like it."

There is also of course the ever-popular "Ooooooh... my ears are alight."

It's 'The shareef dont like it'

 

[kerb]

some classics

The one i always remember was Bon Jovi:

'Woooooooaaah, been living on bread'

well i was 8

 

[danny la rouge]

There is also of course the ever-popular "Ooooooh... my ears are alight."

I don't see how anyone could really think that, though. The clue would be in the song title.

 

[Looby]

Probably hypnotised by the video.

sparklefish put me right but then she did have a Cliff t-shirt.

You fucking bastard.


An old colleague used to think that the lyrics to daydream believer were 'cheer up sleepy jesus'. I still sing those words now because I thought it was really sweet.

 

[pennimania]

I thought the lyric on Glasvegas' 'Go Square' was 'Don't Swear'

luckily my husband is a Scot and quickly put me right

My oldest son used to think George Micheal was 'waking him up in time for cocoa' = which shows what an exciting childhood he had

That's brilliant.

[seeformiles]

Eurythmic 'Love is a Stranger'

For years I thought it went 'circum, circum - cision' (rather than 'so its an obesession')

Not just me then.

also

In Paul Simon's "Graceland"

"As If I never noticed the way she brushed her hair and farted"

 

[electrogirl]

'cuddle meeee, cuddle me.....'

phil collin's 'call on me misheard.

 

[albionism]

"When Rudie bites hard, and ambitions are low" from Love Will Tear Us Apart

 

[Maggot]

I don't see how anyone could really think that, though. The clue would be in the song title.

But you can often hear a song without knowing the title, especially if it's on the radio.


For example, the first few times I heard Brim full of asha I thought they were singing about a Grim Poodle Basher.

 

[fogbat]

A friend of mine believed the lyrics to the classic Weathergirls hit was

"It's a rainy day - hallelujah".

So he was regularly on the dancefloor strutting his stuff to this song, which he thought might be sung by the people of a drought-wracked country after the rain finally arrives.

When the lyrics were finally explained to him, he lamented that "half of Yarmouth think I'm gay, the other half think I'm an idiot "

 

[Annierak]

Bananarama - 'Love in the first degree'
I thought they were singing 'Only you can set me free cos i'm guilty, guilty as a cocoa bean'
