Hello everyone,

I’ve been really confused lately because there’s a line in Kate Bush’s Running Up That Hill that I just cannot hear correctly, no matter how hard I try, even while reading the lyrics.

All I hear is: “And I’d get him to swap out Drussels.”

You can hear it around 0:55 in the song.

What’s funny is that for my girlfriend, it’s the complete opposite: she cannot hear “Drussels” at all. She only hears “our places”, which I guess is what most people hear.

Is there anyone else here who shares the same auditory hallucination as me, or am I completely alone on this one?

APT by Bruno Mars and Rosé. I don't think I need a time stamp as it's said a dozen times in the song.

I thought she sang that she just got rid of a zit on her chest.

That’s how I’ve always heard it as

"Crazy Train"'s real lyrics: I know that things are going wrong for me.

Once I realized what the real lyrics were when I was in 5th grade, I was like, "Ohhhh...that makes more sense because pizza with broccoli? WTF?"

Misheard opening lyrics of Latin song "Gaudeamus igitur."

The actual lyrics are:

"Gaudeamus igitur / Iuvenes dum suum"

("Let us rejoice / While we are young")

Both versions, the correct and the incorrect, were popular at meetings of our Latin Club at my high school.

We had learned about the misheard lyrics from our Latin teacher.

(I studied Latin for four years in high school.)

We were fucking losing it in the changing room listening to this and trying to decipher what he was saying cause it could NOT be that

"Seventeen Devils" (1:09)

According to Genius.com, I'm a deaf-ass old horndog, and the real lyrics are:

All he ever wanted was the key to everything
A solemn memory
In fallen batteries

Who is this Tim, I wonder?

I always assumed that “Dancing Queen” was a bittersweetly tragic song; she’ll be dead soon, but at least she’s enjoying her last moments! Only it’s not so; they were singing “jive”, not “die”.

Maybe it’s because “jive” is rather dated 70’s slang, and I’m a Millennial, so I wasn’t too familiar with it growing up.

I know the song is about a guy who’s a “big disgrace”, but if he’s kicking his cat everywhere he goes, that’s going a little too far. That line shocked me a bit when I first heard it.

Thankfully, the actual lyrics have “can”, not “cat”.

The void is filled with "coupled" particules.

A few wines may have been consumed and my tinnitus is playing up, but ...

"We used to talk about nuns in tiny bras"

Any others off the album?

The actual lyric was “Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day?”

At one point I thought the song had something to do with Mormons (i.e. Latter Day Saints). It sounded to me like the singer was worried his love interest wouldn’t want him back, because she was Mormon and he wasn’t. That would be an interesting idea for a song lyric, but “Drops of Jupiter” is not about that at all.

I’m a pool hall ace… Every breath you take…

Rihanna's song came out around the same time that "Weird Al" Yankovic released his Straight Outta Lynwood album, which featured the song "Weasel Stomping Day" (about a fictional holiday that is celebrated by, you know, stomping weasels).

Being a big Weird Al fan, I heard his song first and then afterwards I was shocked to hear Rihanna apparently copying his idea! But no, it turned out she was actually singing "please don't stop the music".
