I have probably made many mistakes but the only one that comes to mind is the one from "Blinded By the Light". But I won't write it as it is rather high on the "ick-factor".pammustardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7713060046547631469.post-19003212172478932002012-04-15T08:41:07.832-04:002012-04-15T08:41:07.832-04:00And now I'm going to always think "There&...And now I'm going to always think "There's a bathroom on the right" whenever I hear <i>Bad Moon Rising</i>.Guy Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12295921407631250992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7713060046547631469.post-59662801927277162162012-04-15T08:33:25.208-04:002012-04-15T08:33:25.208-04:00Thanks Lynn.

It's when I'm caterwauling some song in the shower that I start to doubt that I have the words right. But when I sing in the shower I'm usually in such a good mood that I don't care.Guy Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12295921407631250992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7713060046547631469.post-82629334155695910042012-04-15T08:24:21.312-04:002012-04-15T08:24:21.312-04:00That reminds me of the comedian Alan Sherman who o...That reminds me of the comedian Alan Sherman who once wanted to write a song parody about "Aquarius" with the line "This is the morning for a plate of asparagus" but he couldn't come up with a whole song about asparagus. Still the lyrics stuck with me and I always think of that song with those words.Guy Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12295921407631250992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7713060046547631469.post-7435969596511009252012-04-15T06:04:34.388-04:002012-04-15T06:04:34.388-04:00Yes - we are halfway now.

Great post - nothing comes to mind right now, but I sing along with the radio all the time and am certain I'm getting lyrics wrong. :)Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7713060046547631469.post-9686180217646643552012-04-14T23:03:45.802-04:002012-04-14T23:03:45.802-04:00To funny.

One song that's been misheard by a bunch of people is Creedance Clearwater's "There's a bathroom on the right."

Let’s see — 26 letters in the alphabet, divided by one-half, no, wait a minute, divide by 2, minus <i>X</i> (let’s face it, <i>X</i> is going to be a real factor in this challenge) so let’s add <i>X</i> back, and that equals <i>M</i>.
