Debora Iyall and Romeo Void represented the artiest arm of new wave, with smart, tartly delivered lyrics, in songs such as “Never Say Never” (“I might like you better if we slept together”) suggesting Iyall was not to be messed with.

Music Review: TobyMac – “Start Somewhere” Single
Posted: 13th June 2011 by Staff in music lyricsTags: brainless, dc talk, Hip Hop, mainstream, Music, teenager
A friend of mine recently asked my thoughts on the song, “Start somewhere,” from the album Tonight, by TobyMac. this was a difficult question for me to answer-painful, even-because it meant that I had to actually go and listen to it. I do write about mainstream Christian “art” from time to time, but mostly just to call it out for the gutless, spineless, brainless drivel that it often is.

06/08/2011 . Gibson has come up with their top 10 list of the most hilarious misheard lyrics in rock music history. here are a few of them: 4. Black Sabbath, “Paranoid” – the title track of Black Sabbath’s 1970 sophomore album was panned by critics for the line “I tell you to end your life, I wish I could but it’s too late.” Only problem was, the line was actually the much more upbeat “I tell you to enjoy life,” although the “I wish I could but it’s too late” part was accurate, so the line was still a bit of a downer.
2. Creedence Clearwater Revival, “Bad Moon Rising” – this classic CCR track is notorious for the misheard lyric “There’s a bathroom on the right” instead of “There’s a bad moon on the rise.” this particularly common mis-hearing is probably due in part to the slapback echo employed on John Fogerty’s vocals, which tends to throw the ear off the trail a little bit.
