Misheard Lyrics of the Beatles

Posted on November 5, 2023 by pauldelancey

The amazing Beatles had a big hit with great song “Girl.”
The lyrics entrance us, to the point we’re not sure what is being sung in the backgroud over key set of lyrics. These lyrics, which are not in dispute, are:

“She’s the kind of girl who puts you down when friends are there
You feel a fool

When you say she’s looking good, she acts as if it’s understood
She’s cool, ooh, ooh”

Now here comes the exciting part. In the background, during these lyrics, we hear Beatles singing “ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti”

Or do we?

It sure seems like the background sounds could be “tit tit tit tit tit tit tit tit tit tit.”

Oh my!

I checked multiple sources for this song’s lyrics. None of them say anything about the background syllables.

What do you hear, “ti ti ti” or “tit tit tit?”

Be Careful What You Ask For

Posted on October 20, 2023 by pauldelancey

Do they really want to always hire a retired, card-carrying introvert whose back hurts after standing on his feet for more than 10 minutes?

Besides:

“I don’t want to belong to any club that would accept me as one of its members.”

— Groucho Marx

Uh oh

How do we know if something is the best thing in the last 100 years?

Is it the greatest thing since sliced bread?

No other comparisons matter.

Misheard Lyrics of Moody Blues – A Side

Posted on October 15, 2023 by pauldelancey

The superb Moody Blues had a hit with the great song “Nights in White Satin.”

Now, with most of my misheard lyrics, I eventually found out the correct words. However, I hereby swear to you that until yesterday, I thought they sang “knights” instead of “nights.” Not only does this change the song’s meaning somewhat, but it also completely upends my understanding of the universe. I mean, is nothing unchanging? Is there nothing immutable we can cling to in times of turmoil? Egad.

Here are the real lyrics:

“Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I’ve written
Never meaning to send”

Misheard lyrics #11

Add red mica powder/ isopropyl mix and strawberry fragrance oil. Stir with knife until well blended. Let sit for 5 minutes..

TIDBITS

1) What if you need to compete in Olympic weightlifting and then go right away to a fancy dinner where you’re going to propose to your true love? You really don’t want to show up sweaty and stinking. You truly want to shower and scrub yourself all over with Strawberry Shea Butter Soap. You’d be clean and smell like happiness. But what if you don’t have the time for a shower? What to do? May I suggest ditching your cast-iron weights in favor of ones made from Strawberry Shea Butter? The heat generated from you workout will make the strawberry soap melt all over you. You’ll be getting squeaky clean while you compete for the gold.
