MY NEWBIE IS SHOWING

U30BC: I Hear Cleveland

What is your favorite mis-heard or misunderstood song lyric? When you hear it now when you're with your friends do you purposefully sing it the wrong way just for the fun of it?





My favorite misheard is and will always be Huey Lewis and the News The Heart of Rock and Roll.





This is how the first conversation went:


Adam: Do you know what that line is?


Me: Yes.


Adam: (After waiting patiently for 30 seconds) Well what is it?


Me: The heart of rock and roll is in Cleveland.





The next day he made a point of telling me the heart of rock and roll is still beating. I gave him the "you didn't really believe that, did you?" look to save face. Yet, I still sing the wrong way when I hear it because I like it better.





I still don't know the opening line of the Raspberries song "Go All the Way." Sometimes I think it's "I'm on ya" other times it thinks it gibberish, other times i wish the band would have just said what it was.
