Mondegeen's

Growing up, I basically had a radio strapped to my head. Loved listening to music. Back then, radio's sucked balls, as far as sound quality and output were concerned. No such things as headphones - at least not readily available. Even then, headphones made no sense, 'cause the output was so distorted with station drift and noise being so bad, Also, monaural, not stereo.

Anyway, this lead to Mondegreens. So many of my favourite songs sound so different now that I'm listening to them in High Fidelity (surround sound, dedicated centre for vocals, etc.).

Anyway, for those who don't know what Mondegreen's are, here's a description of it. The origin of mondegreen, lol.

Laid him on the green...............

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondegreen

My all time favourite is "Put some liquor in it......." When I first heard it, I was like, "You racist pig!" Then there's Mexican Lucky, gulolol........... Up all night to get lucky (I get it now, but still hear Mexican Lucky in the backup vocals). Lady Gagme's Poker Face (pucker face).

Post your most embarrassing Mondegreen experience. Could be music or from other audible sources.



Just realized I spelt the title wrong. Mods, please fix. Mondegeen's............. fuck me, banh mi

In all fairness, women have better hearing than us guys. I remember the days I was competing in car audio competitions. I spent days trying to get rid of dead spots and firm up the imaging. Wife's pretty brutal. The morning of the competition, she says, "The system sounds like crap. It was better last week. What did you do?"

Anyway, I remember one time she was like, "Holy crap, that sounds fantastic!" It was a passage from Copacabana. Insturmentals. You get the imaging right and it screws up everything else. This was the time I made the regionals and represented BC/Alberta in the World Finals.

Petticoat error...........

I knew it didn't make sense, especially the error part.

Lu Kara song, Pretty Girl Era.

Finally figured out what they’re singing about.

https://youtu.be/33ptulhhQPg?si=Vhqcmrn1rSPrCyoe

Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Madman, drummers, bummers
Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps
As the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin' kinda older
I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasin', sneezin' and wheezin'
The calliope crashed to the ground
The calliope crashed to the ground!
But she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Some silicone sister with a manager mister
Told me I got what it takes
She said, "I'll turn you on sonny to something strong
Play the song with the funky break"
And go-kart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart
To see if it was safe outside
And little Early-Pearly came by in his curly-wurly
And asked me if I needed a ride
Asked me if I needed a ride!
But she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
She got down, but she never got tired
She's gonna make it through the night
She's gonna make it through the night
But, mama, that's where the fun is
But mama, that's where the fun is
Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
But mama, that's where the fun is
Some brimstone, baritone, anticyclone, rolling stone
Preacher from the East
Says, "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone
That's where they expect it least
And some new-mown chaperone standin' in the corner
Watchin' the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone
Remind him of romance
The calliope crashed to the ground!
But she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
blinded by the light
(Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat) revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
(In the dumps with the mumps) blinded by the light
(As the adolescent pumps his way into his hat) revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
blinded by the light
(I tripped the merry-go-round) revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
(With this very unpleasin', sneezin' and wheezin') blinded by the light
(The calliope crashed to the ground) revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
blinded by the light
(And throws his lover in the sand) revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
(And some bloodshot, forget-me-not said daddy's within earshot) blinded by the light
(Save the buckshot, turn up the band) revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
blinded by the light
(Told me I got what it takes) revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
(She said, "I'll turn you on, son, into something strong")
She got down but she never got tired
She's gonna make it through the night
