OT: Misheard Song Lyrics |
This will probably date me, but yesterday I was watching the dreadful
movie "My Fair Lady," which I remember the music from my childhood
because my parents had the record. I can't listen to that one song
without hearing "Wooden Tit Be Loverly."
Which reminded me of a co-worker going on a few weeks ago about how
great a poet Jim Morrison was- he even invented his own words! Like
"wallawindamire." I got it right away, and I am still laughing. 10
atheist points to anyone who knows what song this is from, and what the
right words are. It's probably an easy one.

The Beatles came to America when I was a fourth-grader in Oklahoma, and thanks
to the radio technology of the time, the first time I heard "Ticket to Ride",
it sounded like "ticket to lie", which was something I'd never considered
before. (Of course, in the four decades or so since then, it seems to have
taken hold in quite a few places.)

Once upon a time in alt.atheism, dear sweet Neil Kelsey

Of course, the most famous one would have to be "In the Garden of Eden",
which came out wrong when Doug Ingle got blitzed before recording it in the
late 60s. I can just hear the conversation in the mixing booth:
"What the hell is he singing?"
"I don't know, it sounds like 'in-a-godda-davida'".
"We like it."

The story I heard was that the songwriter (band member Doug Ingle)
telephoned drummer Ron Bushy in the middle of the night to tell him
he'd written this great song. Bushy said something like "That's great,
Doug, what's it called?" Ingle answered "In the Garden of Eden", but
since he was drunk at the time, it came out "In-a-Gadda-Da-Vida".
Bushy asked "What was that again?!"
Ingle yelled into the phone "IN-A-GADDA-DA-VIDA!!!"
And the name stuck. Anyway, here's Wikipedia:

(neil_kelsey@hotmail.com) made the light shine upon us with this:
This will probably date me, but yesterday I was watching the dreadful
movie "My Fair Lady," which I remember the music from my childhood
because my parents had the record. I can't listen to that one song
without hearing "Wooden Tit Be Loverly."
Which reminded me of a co-worker going on a few weeks ago about how
great a poet Jim Morrison was- he even invented his own words! Like
"wallawindamire." I got it right away, and I am still laughing. 10
atheist points to anyone who knows what song this is from, and what the
right words are. It's probably an easy one.
Of course, the most famous one would have to be "In the Garden of Eden",
which came out wrong when Doug Ingle got blitzed before recording it in the
late 60s. I can just hear the conversation in the mixing booth:
"What the hell is he singing?"
"I don't know, it sounds like 'in-a-godda-davida'".
"We like it."
All the pieces fell into place on the first take, perfectly, though
maybe not as intended, if I recall the story. Does anyone remember
how many (or how few) takes there were between the demo and the
album cut?
If the universe could spit out _that_ goddamned baroque acid rock
masterpiece in one try, it suddenly becomes a HELL of a lot easier to
accept it spitting out life. The Zen Buddhists have it right.
***** you all, I'm moving to Nepal.

AFAIK, it went straight to cut.
