Old September Blues:

"Never were a drawback, you always were an Asshat."

I knew he was saying asset, but it kind of sounds like Asshat and it's fun to imagine it that way!

I was listening to Magheetah this morning...I could've sworn I heard "I've been waiting on the booty, I've been waiting so long" LOL  I had to check the lyrics, and sure enough, its "I've been waiting on the BOAT HERE, I've been waiting so long" lol it would've been funnier if I was right!   ;D

QuoteOff the Record:
"In a crowded room with a box of poop."

I mean, what the hell is a box of boom anyway?

One of my friends girlfriends thought is was -
"In a crowded room near the box of poop..."

and that's how I sing it every time now.

I think Sooner is

Sooner or later I'll come to see you, feel your power in the early sun
Well, that's just like, your opinion man.

What about the backing vocals in the bridge/build-up of Steam Engine?  I'm hearing  "We got 'em, we got 'em"

Anyone help me out?

Something I'm clearly mishearing is at the end of What A Wonderful Man:

"A bitch to suck your mum...YAAAHHH!!"

What is Jim singing there? I've never seen it printed anywhere. In the second chorus I don't think he says "sensible man" either, it sounds more like "sensuous man" or some made up word like "situous".

"The day I found out his cause" also sounds like "the devil and his cause" to me.

YouAre_GivenToFly

Not MMJ nor misheard, but in the Pearl Jam song "Given to Fly" there is the following line...

A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw
Delivered him wings, "Hey, look at me now"


Beautiful imagery, but that "delivered him wings" bit always plants the picture of a delivery guy walking to someones fron door with an order of deep fried buffalo chicken. Surely not Mr. Vedder's intention.

First off, this thread is awesome.
In this part of Steam, my girlfriends friend always sings "Bikini Bottom, Bikini Bottom". Which has ruined it for me!

In OBH, I used to think it was "tellin of the STORM he'd being". Which I actually like better.
The Wonderful Man one has always been a mystery. As well as the beginning of the way that he sings.


YA GTF - one of my favorite PJ songs will now always make me want buffalo chicken. Ha.
don't rock bottom, just listen just slow down...
