Surprised CCR's" Bad Moon Rising" isn't on the list. Most people hear "There's a bathroom on the right" instead of "There's a bad moon on the rise" It's the name of the song!
CCR was one of my dad's favorite bands (and thus one of mine, lol) and I've always LOVED singing "there's a bathroom on the right" occasionally, just for the chuckles XD Also bit of a tragedy that they didn't include the other classic: "Hold me closer, Tony Danza" XD
Load More Replies...Only got the Billy Joel one wrong. Could have sworn the line "In her rich girl world" was in there.
It's not "white bread world", either XD (like w*f! "white bread" doesn't even make sense, plus it could be considered a racial slur.) It's "white-bred world", meant to imply the color white, as in, she's had a colorless, boring, unadventurous upbringing XD
Load More Replies...I got a couple wrong, unsurprisingly, given that about half of these were songs I'd never heard (of), but the ridiculously unfeasible answers offered meant that I still got most of them right.
Load More Replies...Did anyone else get pretty much every one of these stuck in your head as you went?
My friend singing a couple of years ago - I don’t wanna be married in a bad cemetery 🎶🎵. Asked him a couple of questions about the movie Pet Semetery, took way longer then it should for a lightbulb to go off in his head..
Are these actually misheard? I am terrible at picking up words in songs because of auditory processing disorder, but all the songs I knew I got right and the ones I didn't, I found pretty easy to work out the correct one from the options given.
As someone who has a song for every occasion (read: I keep reacting to flippin' everything that happens with song lyrics because I'm neurodiverse) this was really fun! 😊 ...wait, Fun? I feel a song coming on!🎶If you're lost and alone, or you're sinking like a stone, carry on. May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground, carry on...🎶 (If you're unfamiliar with those lyrics, they're from the song "Carry On" by Fun).
LMAO I got the majority right and I've only heard three of these songs. I mean, just look at the choices. How hard can it be to pick the right one?
Only got the ones I can’t stand wrong lmao rest easy , I’m ace at music
