After five years of marriage, I finally trust my husband enough to listen to Pearl Jam in the car with him. We were listening to vs. last night on a long trip home, and during the song "animal" he asked "is he saying he'd rather be with a 9-year-old"?.
My husband has a few other great ones, but I have to run.
This is the funniest of all right here
I have no patience for bad music and stupid people...
The whole world will be different soon the whole world will be RELIEVED
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
heres another....I thought it was
Her legs spread out before me as her body once did
I thought he was saying Her legs spread out before me as her body was dead!
and in Elderly Woman, I thought it was "I'm not my father" which perplexed me cos of his singing from her perspective, then thinking he was suddenly switching to the guys perspective..just for one short sentence..lmao...

For the longest time I thought he was saying "I'm not my father" too.

I finally looked it up after I got tired of being confused LoL..
what the fuck is this world
runnin' in to you didn't
leave a message at least I
cuddle in your voice one last time
in WMA i thought when he would sing "policeman, policeman, policeman" i would instead hear "Oh he smells" repeatedly...has anyone seen those youtube videos where they would put up pictures of the misheard lyrics...they did Evenflow and Yellow Ledbetter...i thought Ledbetter was funny..."anna no anna no, i don't wanna shave...it off" ("and i know and i know, i don't wanna stay...at all")
i know there are others that i've misheard but i can't think of them
That's completely brilliant; thanks for posting it
I showed it to my husband and he nearly died laughing (I think he especially liked 'potato wave'). However, I have given him more ammo by doing this because he's always taking the piss out of how indecipherable Pearl Jam lyrics are - d'oh! His Eddie Vedder impression is evil: all lounge-singery, slurred words and nonsense. His life is permanently in danger because of this.
A friend of mine thought the lyrics to Daughter were, 'my beige, old cat will remind me' and my Mother thought he was singing, 'don't call me Doris'. One of my best friends thought that Faithful was a song about lizards: 'geckos, nobody hears...'
I had this friend Trevor growing up who would sing the Ace of Base song " All that she wants..." and he'd say, All that she wants is to have my baby"
He was positive it really said that. And aerosmith, " Dude look like a lady"
He'd always say, " Do the lucky lady" ... Not very lucky if they knew Trevor
So on first hearing Alive, and for a long time after, I thought 'but I'm glad we talked' was 'but I'm playing guitar'.
:oops:
Although embarassed when I first figured out how wrong I was, I now can't help but laugh and still hear it in my head pretty much every time. I always thought it didn't quite make sense, thinking it would have done had it been the son in the song saying that rather than the mother. Kind of like 'yeah this sucks, but... I'M PLAYING GUITAR, so that's an escape and I'm still alive and all that' or something.
Okay, this is my first post ever, and I am so glad I am not the only one that misheard Black!
"her legs spread out before me as her body lifted"
and also, I always heard "all five horizons" as " all those viborasms"
My husband says I just have a perverted mind :roll:
And, "I know you'll be a sun in someone else's sky"
There are so many that you all have listed here already:
"Fucking circles"
"What the fuck did this world, running to you did it, leave a message at least I'll cuddle in your voice once last time"
"Evenflow come to her like butterflies"
"Girlfriend, he can't help when he's happy he looks insane"
"Everything has changed, absolutely nothing's changed"
"I don't remember anything to this very day, but the love, the love"
Oh, there are probably lots more, but those are the worst one's I can think of!
Underneath this smile lies everything
all my hopes, anger, pride and shame
ok I know on the lyrics to Got Some what they should be
but
I keep hearing quite clearly so therefore am now singing
"are you a puddle full of detriment---al"
?????
For a long time, I used to think in Corduroy, Ed said...
"Everything has changed, Absolutely nothings changed"
Which I still think is a better lyric, Haha. Actually, it was sort of like a line that me and a girlfriend in HS used to say alot, or attribute to our relationship, and she discovered that we had it wrong, but she was scared to tell me I think because she thought it was upset me, than when I found out, I told her, and she was like, "yeah, i knew, but i didn't want to tell you"
words seem so out of place.

I cant stp laughing! What a funny bunch of people we are,love this thread!
Well, my cousin and I used to try and write the lyrics down so we could sing along to all the pj songs and we came up with this for " Jeremy spoke in class today"...."Jeremys smoking...plastic" . But you know, maybe he was? And even now, its still hard for me to sing Even Flow without singing " Rests his head on a FELLOW made of concrete". My mum used to think silverchairs lyrics for Pure Massacre were "Steel matchie car". Haha!
Hahaha.
I always heard.. "Jeremy has spoken ... at last today... "
