ppl often mistake sex pistols pretty vacant for sometihng like pretty bacon.

anyway. progwise, Meshuggah's "Rational Gaze" (Track 2 on Nothing) 2nd verse says something like "our light induced, image of truth" but the first bit sounds more like "I LIKE JUICE!" it always makes me laugh cos its like the singer is shouting his prefered fluid out randomly in an extremely heavy metal song!

Does anyone else hear this? The track is available on meshuggahs profile in these archives if you want to hear it.

YES!  OMG!      I got that album when it first came out, and a friend and I were listening to it for the first time..  and we heard that, looked at each other, rewound it, heard it again, and after yet another confirmation, we decided that we KNEW that Jens was speaking of his favorite beverage, and we never consulted the lyrics booklet.   We shouted that a lot!

I read somewhere that the line in Pink Floyd's "One Of These Days" is actually "one of these days I'm going to drop you from the human species". I don't know what I'm hearing anymore!

NO WAY!!IT IS FALSE!!

That was actually a review made when some guy thought he is special and said that...But if you hear that part of the song a little closer with your ear to the jukebox,you'll hear that it clearly says (this is my favourite part of the post ):ONE OF THESE DAYS I WILL CUT YOU INTO LITTLE PIECES!

Well I've found one also. I remember we usally sang it after drinking too much...

Although we knew Bruce Dickinson was singing : " 666 the number of the beast", we thought "668 the neighbour of the beast" was sounding even better !

My mother thought that in Thuderstruck from AC/DC, they were saying "Fantasia" instead of thunderstruck in the chorus.

Excuse her, she's speaking real better in french than english (like me actually).

I always thought the line in Every Breath You Take was "I'm a pool hall ace": it's really "how my poor heart aches."  Listen to how he enunciates it, and you can see why one could be confused...

says that they always sang anal lee instead of Ana Lee

I'd never noticed before, but I just listened to the song keeping an ear open for it... and it sounds exactly like he's saying "I like juice!"

I heard that one mentioned and now whenever I hear the song I think "Tacos of the earth".
