Misinterpreted Lyrics

[Aerdna]

Heard something that didn't sound right in the lyrics to an Ev song? Post it here!

At first in "All That I'm Living For", where Amy sings 'lock the last open door', I thought she was saying "lock the stupid door' :p

[Derek]

Lacrymosa:

"You're such a good freak, honey.."

[Errant Soul]

Heard something that didn't sound right in the lyrics to an Ev song? Post it here!

At first in "All That I'm Living For", where Amy sings 'lock the last open door', I thought she was saying "lock the stupid door' :p

Thats what I thought too :D

[Derek]

I smell a Panic/Ev mashup based on these misheard lyrics.

"I chime in, haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn LAST OPEN DOOR!"

[Darko]

oooone daaaaaay I'm going to **** up yourrrrr naaaaaaaame!

[L]

*Call my name and save me from the DUCK.*

Can this be the DUCK from Tuna Afternoon??? :p

[Ellen]

I used to think the lyrics to My Immortal were "held onto me" instead of "have all of me", but only for a little while when I first got the CD.

[Bob]

I used to think the lyrics to My Immortal were "held onto me" instead of "have all of me", but only for a little while when I first got the CD.

I thought this same line was "had enough of me" the first time I heard it.

[LongLOSTlotrelf]

I used to think in Haunted that she was saying.

"Hunting you I can smell you a knife (alive)" and I was like WTF mate O-o

[Rockera]

I thought that that Amy sang "I can see you're alive" for Haunted.:o

[Summers]

In one of the songs on TOD (not sure which one), I keep hearing 'we want gravy' in one line. I'm sure it doesn't mean that :P will have to look at the lyrics.

[GothRocker]

I know I heard that too. It's one of the last songs I think either All That I'm Living For or Your Star....hmmmm. I think.... I might be wrong.....

[L]

*You know you're not the only wall*

[Ammer]

I heard in "Cloud Nine",

For "No light to lead the way" : "You lied to me"

And in "Lacrymosa"

For "Out on your own": "How do you know?"

*You know you're not the only wall*

LMAO

[echelon]

Lacrymosa:

"You're such a good freak, honey.."

The first few times I listened to Lacrymosa I'd hear 'I'm such a good freak' :P

[L]

Lacrymosa: *My love was on and off*

The Only One: *Heaven shine a lie down on me*

Your Star: *And I'm a dumb now*

[nananess]

I kept hearing, "I wanna stay in love with my soul"
I was like.. what??? ... hahahaha

[Diokhan]

Like someone said in Lacrymosa I also thogh i was hearing "I'm such a good freak". It's funny.

In Away From Me I could swear she says: "i've woken now to **** myself..." (I've woken now to find myself)

In Anything for you i hear: "Can you forget the world that you ****ed in me?" o.O It was really weird the first time i thought i was listening to this xD

[WiseOldUnicorn]

I can't think of anything I've misheard at the moment, but one of my friends used to think that in My Immortal, she says "my plaid and satin dreams" instead of "my once pleasant dreams." lol. I never let her live that down, either...

[nananess]

^ hahaha. that's awesome

[Random Shy Girl]

I don't know... Most of the time my interpreting, makes no sense, so I usually wait until someone provides lyrics for me. :D But anyway, I keep hearing the word 'phantom' in "Like You". I think it's at the part where Amy sings, "...nothing real love can't undo...". I know that it's way off, but I was so sure 'phantom' was somewhere in that phrase. *sighs* Maybe it's just because I've been hearing my best friend talk about Phantom of the Opera for nine months and the word has been permanently stuck in my brain. :p

Random Shy Girl

[Cirafly24]

in Like You, instead of "humming, haunted somewhere out there", i heard "running, ohh it's so frightening"

[Chiidatbe]

^ The same line I thought was "I'll be haunting somewhere out there" and "Honey, haunted somewhere out there."

[Derek]

Because of the 'such a good freak' mishear in Lacrymosa I used to think the song was sexual from the clip until I heard the real lyrics, ROTFLMAO.

I also heard this in Haunted:

"Haunting me, I can smell your whole lie."

[Mark]

Bring Me To Life... I thought it was "All this time I can't believe a cup of tea"

I kinda thought Amy was about to say the F word in Sweet Sacrifice at first

And I thought Lacrymosa was "Too much to blame it on me"

[Chiara]

in cmwys amy says: "and you're too late" while i have understood "and you're who lie" lol

[Derek]

Too much to blame it on me,
I'm such a good freak honey,
I don't wanna mold your back nowwwwww

Ah. Lyrical perfection!

[Ashlee Nicole]

I kinda thought Amy was about to say the F word in Sweet Sacrifice at first

I thought that the first few times too. I still do if I don't pay attention when I'm listening to it, it's like a little wake up call :p

Then in Even in Death when she says "even in death" i keep thinking she says emanuel O.O

[Sakhmet]

oooone daaaaaay I'm going to **** up yourrrrr naaaaaaaame!

Same!

I also thought the line in Lithium was "always find my place, I'm only ashes" which is significantly cooler than the real line. I intend to use it some day.

Ah! I just discovered that the line in Sweet Sacrifice is NOT "Still unwilling to deny your mistakes" but in fact "Are you still too weak to survive your mistakes". Wow. Shows how much attention I pay to the lyrics of this album. I'm sure I have a million of these from TOD, I just can't understand what the hell she's saying.

The only other one I can remember is in Breathe No More, I thought it was "Lie to me, convince me that I've been saved forever" which I actually really loved, so I was sad when I discovered it was 'sick'. :(

[Tiffany]

When I first heard the teaser I thought she was saying, "Tonight you blame it on me" (To let you blame it on me)

[Scarla]

in i think going in under my friend thoght amy sang

" i wont be fingered again"

instead of
"i wont be broken again"
she will never stopped being mocked for that !

[Derek]

Your friend is dirtyyy!

[Katie@EvThreads]

Heard something that didn't sound right in the lyrics to an Ev song? Post it here!

At first in "All That I'm Living For", where Amy sings 'lock the last open door', I thought she was saying "lock the stupid door' :p

I didn't know she was saying Lock the last open door until I read your post.. I thought it was "Lock the stupid door" too.

EDIT:
When Amy says "And One day I'm going to forgot get your name" I thought she said "And one day I'm going to F**k your name".

[Natalie]

EDIT:
When Amy says "And One day I'm going to forgot get your name" I thought she said "And one day I'm going to F**k your name".

hahah dude! me too!!! lol everytime I hear that now, i start laughing :p

[CLens]

It was really hard to understand Amy on this album..

CMWYS
"don't lie to me, just get your things."
i heard, "don't love me, just get your things."
WotW
"freefall, freefall, all through life."
i heard, "freefall, freefall, all through the night."
Lithium
"always find my place among the ashes."
i heard, 'always find my face among the ashes."
Cloud Nine
"i don't need to touch the sky."
i heard, "i'm not afraid to touch the sky"
Lacrymosa
this is due to listening to that trailer..
"to let you blame it on me."
i heard and STILL hear, "tonight you'll blame it on me."
The Only One
okay, this song is the worst. she slurs words together and i could not understand her when i first heard this song. i'm not even going to do this one.

[Clayton]

In Weight of the World
"like all my screaming has gone unheard"

I used to hear: like all my screaming has gone cold

In sweet sacridice:
"you know you live to break me" I thought it was: you know you live to hate me

[Aerdna]

It was really hard to understand Amy on this album..

WotW
"freefall, freefall, all through life."
i heard, "freefall, freefall, all through the night."

I agree with you, I find the words very hard to sing/mouth along to on this album, I always have to keep referring back to the album booklet...

And I think I heard that on WotW too :p

In one of the songs on TOD (not sure which one), I keep hearing 'we want gravy' in one line. I'm sure it doesn't mean that :P will have to look at the lyrics.

I don't know why, but I find that hilarious! :D

[Vern]

In Like You, when she sings "humming, haunted somewhere out there" I keep hearing "running, haunting souls are out there"

[Syd]

I had to look at the lyrics on the CD to understand what in the world she was singing in CMWYS:

"How could I have burned paradise"

Me singing: "How could Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii have (*soft and muffled*) burrrrrrmmmnannwareeasdfadddd... (*very loud*) HOW COULD IIIIIIIIIIII..." hehe

I was glad to finally learn what that was. haha

[Aerdna]

On Sweet Sacrifice, when Amy sings "You love to hate me, don't you honey", when she says 'honey', I thought she was just groaning :p

[Derimay]

In one of the songs on TOD (not sure which one), I keep hearing 'we want gravy' in one line. I'm sure it doesn't mean that :P will have to look at the lyrics.

I think you're reffering to The Only One..
I might be wrong, though. :P

[DarkStar]

haha it's aaallll about the gravy!

in CMWYS i thought the line "come find me" was confined me. i guess it fits pretty well. hey amy i think you should re-write that line in my honour ;)

[CLens]

In Like You, when she sings "humming, haunted somewhere out there" I keep hearing "running, haunting souls are out there"

i always forget to look up what she says here.

i always hear "humming, under the sun - way out there."

[Sky-Shaped]

In Anything For You I heard something like I'll wake up your earth inside instead of I'll become your earth and sky... :D

[Keyja]

It was really hard to understand Amy on this album..
WotW
"freefall, freefall, all through life."
i heard, "freefall, freefall, all through the night."


Yea. I heard that too. Even though I know the lyrics I still tend to think that's what she's saying. Haha.

Maybe Amy needs to work on her diction a little more.
The words are too blended together.

[Derek]

In Anything For You I heard something like I'll wake up your earth inside instead of I'll become your earth and sky... :D

Wait a minute..so thats what she's singing in Anything For You?

I thought it was the former all this time.

[Onwynn]

I'm guilty of the "one day I'm gonna **** your name" in Sweet Sacrifice as well.

[Yumi Yan]

oooone daaaaaay I'm going to **** up yourrrrr naaaaaaaame!

I totaly heard the same:D

[Derek]

I think everyone thought Amy said '****' in Sweet Sacrifice. ^_^

[PoorSweetInnocentThing]

lol I kno I think its cause its such an angry line and she emphisizes the F alot with no or sound, its like FUH-get...


I had to look at the lyrics on the CD to understand what in the world she was singing in CMWYS:

"How could I have burned paradise"

Me singing: "How could Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii have (*soft and muffled*) burrrrrrmmmnannwareeasdfadddd... (*very loud*) HOW COULD IIIIIIIIIIII..." hehe

I was glad to finally learn what that was. haha

I did the same exact thing =)

[MorbidxMegan]

It was really hard to understand Amy on this album..

CMWYS
"don't lie to me, just get your things."
i heard, "don't love me, just get your things."



Same Here! :)

For My Immortal I heard for "You still have, all of me" I thought it was "Part Of me" I still catch myself singing that sometimes. :)

xoxoxoxo-megan

[Scarla]

Your friend is dirtyyy!


haha i know she is ! her boyfriend doesnt mind though lol :D

[Gunn]

On the Last Song I'm Wasting on You I thought Amy said "And I'm not buying babies" lol. Its become a little joke between me and my friends now ever since.

[billy_magnum]

"Like GOD in heaven gave me a turd."

[Sakhmet]

I had to look at the lyrics on the CD to understand what in the world she was singing in CMWYS:

"How could I have burned paradise"

Me singing: "How could Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii have (*soft and muffled*) burrrrrrmmmnannwareeasdfadddd... (*very loud*) HOW COULD IIIIIIIIIIII..." hehe

I was glad to finally learn what that was. haha

Heh, that is me in every song. Me in SS: "Iiiit's truuue, we're all a little iiinsaaane... and mmwweerr, mlaahhhh meeeeeeh... uh, NOW that I am, unchaaaaained..."

No matter how many times I tried to hear that line, I couldn't understand it. And it's only three words. *sigh*

[Broken Rebel]

In Sweet Sacrifice I heard "I'm gonna **** your name"

In Like You I hear "Hey for breathing without you," "Blinding war between us. Melt away the urn" and "And as we lay in silent bloths I know you remember me"

In All That I'm Living For, I hear "Peeps and every thought together," and "Like a lone a play."

It's hard to understand her in TOD.

[Katie@EvThreads]

"Like GOD in heaven gave me a turd."

Haha Turds...:)

[WiltingRose]

In Like You when she sings 'melt away and' I always heard 'now to wait the end' till a couple of days ago. whoops

[Hethlouise]

im gonna write a song using all of the mistaked lyrics, that would be so cool, then ill send it to Amy,
and (i think it was Syd????????) the CMWYS thing was exactly the same with me too

[Tennyo]

In Your Star "How can the DUCK-ness feel so wrong?" xD
And in the preview with Lacrymosa on the background all I could hear was mumbles and groans. x_x

[keisecker]

in cmwys instead of "just get your things" I understood "just catch up things" and I was like ????

[Yemaya]

In Sweet Sacrifice
"It's true, we're all a little, insane, but oh so cold, now that I'm unchanged" (Should be "It's true, we're all a little, Insane, but oh so clear, now that I am unchained" )

In My Immortal
'"Sweet Rapturing light it ends here tonight"

Your Star

"Folding Hearts & pieces, swing lonely, find your own way out"...I've only JUST looked up the real lyrics for this one too

Cloud Nine

"Not afraid to dream, this sweet, sleep forever"....I think my version makes a bit more sense than the real lyrics...:-S
"No matter where I lay, remember, that all along" ("No light to lead the way, remember, that all alone")
"Beg my broken heart to bleed"
"No man to leave this way" ("No light to lead the way" 2nd time)

"Gimme, gimme, gimme, fried chicken" from a Queen song, not sure which one now, was a long time ago.

Jennifer Paige "Crush"

"Here's what I'll do, I'll pay those" Sang that for years before realising what it was!!!
"Vanilla Skies, Why pick offenses in your eyes" again...sang that for years before realising what it actually was too!

I'm quite good with lyrics, can't think of anymore I've got wrong in a long time...

Dear God, this thread is so funny it's making me cry!!! :D

[winterserenity]

In Lacrymosa, for a while I thought it said:
Grieving all things I can't repair
Not really
Too late to blame it on me

Which I like a bit better than the real lyrics.

[jonathanmoriarty]

For some reason, after several listens to Snow White Queen, I could never get how she sang "there's nowhere to run, so let's just get it over..." even though I already knew the lyrics.

I always heard it as, "there's nowhere to run so let's ...(*here be something unintelligible*)...it over..."

Then one day I was listening to the entire album, and when it got to Snow White Queen, I finally heard the right thing. Hehe. :D

[Derek]

"Like GOD in heaven gave me a turd."

QUICK. SOMEONE MAKE A PIC TO MATCH THAT.

Lawl.

[Deni]

In MI, i always thought it was 'Now I'm UNbounded by the life you left behind', till i saw lyrics.

In Tourniquet i never was quite sure if it was 'Am i too lost to be safe, Am i too luuuust',
but it was 'too lost'. Though i sing it sometimes as 'Am I too lust' (rooleyes)

[L]

"Like GOD in heaven gave me a turd."

OMFG I'll never stop laughing after this one :D :D :D :D

[nemofellfirst]

The first line of Good Enough
I heard "One day you'll smile again", not "Under your spell again".
And yeah I'm guilty of the "F**k" thing in Sweet Sacrifice too!

[Dantheman]

^^ Yep ^^ In Good Enough - "One day you'll smile again" instead of "Under you spell again". Good to see i'm not alone. ;)

Also guilty of "lock the stupid door".

:o

[Derimay]

In Lacrymosa I always herd "greiving all the things I can't reap, and willing" or something.
hehe, I also herd the "lock the stupid door", the f**** on sweet sacrifice, etcetc.

[brendan]

the first time i heard cloud nine i though it said this


"i don't need to touch the skin i just want to feel that thigh and you refuse to let me"

[Ashlee Nicole]

"i don't need to touch the skin i just want to feel that thigh and you refuse to let me"
Haha! I'm trying so hard not to burst out laughing in class. I wish that was the real lyric, either that or that I had your ears, that's amazing. It's signature worthy. :D

In Good Enough I always think she says "Shouldn't have let you touch me so sweetly" at the beginning and I automatically think of Lose Control..

[Tarjanian]

In Good Enough I always think she says "Shouldn't have let you touch me so sweetly"

Me too! :D

Anywhere: All I want is to give my life ****ing to you... Ehh! :confused: :p

[Sky-Shaped]

And I used to hear "Humming, haunted, so broken" instead of "Humming, haunted somewhere out there".

[Fabricio]

"Don't want your hand this time I'll shave myself"

[dieromantic]

They;re so grat! Sometimes I wish I had these twisted ears....

[Mark]

The Only One;

"We're all gravy" and that was YESTERDAY.. i was like WTH.

[Derek]

In All That I'm Living For, I had to refresh my memory with the lyric booklet cause I thought she was saying

"Peace I've never thought to gather" instead of "Piecing every thought together."

[Chili]

i also understood one day you'll smile again in good enough! man, what is this??

oh its so funny when you listen to evanescence and you really understand so much ****... on some song, i dont even remember which one, i had like every other line wrong... i even wrote that down... maybe i find it then i'll post it...

[Dark_raven]

Thats what I thought too :D

So did i, till i listened to it bout 5 times....lol

[Halah]

haha, I'm amused that I'm not only hearing this:

"one day, I'm gonna f**k it, you're name"

[katie08]

in Like You, instead of "humming, haunted somewhere out there", i heard "running, ohh it's so frightening"

is humming really the official lyric? *makes mental note to check booklet* I copied lyrics to my ipod from a lyrics site and it said that and I was like 'hah! that is so wrong.. it's definately honey' and I still think it is that :p Humming doesn't make a lot of sense there..

I have had tons though :p Amy is sometimes hard to understand [quite a lot actually, lol, until you know what it is ;)]
-eg. Tourniquet- first verse-betrayl. for some reason i COULD NOT understand what that was, lmao. I listened to that part again and again and it kept sounding like beach rail, and i was like 'that CAN'T be it!'
hmm..
-on Snow White Queen , Soon 'I know' you'll see.. I keep hearing as soon, by now, you'll see. (I knew that was wrong but it still sounds like it to me, lol'
-Call me when you're sober- you want me 'come find me' I heard as 'confine me' , lol
-Good enough- under your spell again- heard as" one day you smile again" .. was shocked at the real lyrics for that, lol. When I listen to it now, I don't know how I heard smile.. but i can still kind of hear the 'one day'
-Everybody's fool- after the 'without the mask...' 'I know the truth now" I heard- I know the truth and I. (live version from abh.. that was the one I always listened to, not sure if it sounds like that on regular version, lol)
-Going under- not tormented daily, defeated by you- "not tall and todaily deafeated by you' (that didn't make sense so I looked it up pretty soon after knowing the song, lol)
uh.. there are probably more that I can't think of right now, I'll have to come back later, haha

*edit* haha, bloodpigs, I thought that too! I was like *gasp* haha. I realized immediately after, but first second I heard it, that's what it sounded like.
*edit again*
Syd- "How could I have burned paradise"

Me singing: "How could Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii have (*soft and muffled*) burrrrrrmmmnannwareeasdfadddd... (*very loud*) HOW COULD IIIIIIIIIIII..." hehe

LMFAO, that is EXACTLY what I was like, ahahah

*edit yet again*
Like you- halo= hang low. and I also just relistened and I am sure it's not humming, and is indeed honey. If it was not 2:23 am I would find my cd and check to be sure, lol. Well.. no matter what it says it still is honey to me , lol.makes sense , and sounds like it.

Just read through the thread , and seems a lot of people hear the same mistakes as me and agree Amy is hard to understand. Which is good, because I figured I'd be flamed for saying that, lol.

[dreamchaser_83]

sweet sacrifice, i am in the same boat as most of you, i swear she says **** it, not forget

and then "one sweet day, you're gonna drown in my lost pain" i heard "one sweet day you're gonna drown in mindless pain"

[AliceInOz]

I have an obsession with reading the lyrics while I listen to a new song for the first time, to me it helps the whole first impression thing, and lyrics to songs are very important to me.

[Eternal Star]

^ I do that too, I have to read the lyrics, or I won't understand a single word ^^ The thing is that I only read the lyrics to the album songs, the other ones I had to look on the internet and I was too lazy for that :rolleyes:

The only one I can remember right now is Lies, when it says 'You were never conceived in love' I heard 'You never can see below'

[MrMellow]

For ages, my ears wouldn't accept that she said 'in the dust' at the end of the first chorus....I think it's coz there's LOADS of vocal layering and stuff. :S

Also, I kept hearing 'How do you run?' at the beginning of Lacrymosa....

And yeah, I heard the 'f' word in Sweet Sacrifice....LOL

[freak]

in CMWYS i thought she said "well never mind" instead of "you were never mine"

[Aloi]

Now.. When I first heard October, I mistook "My only peace," for "My only Pete," and beleived it to be a love song directed toward somebody named Pete. @.@ *blush* I looked it up, and was like OMGOHHH!!! XDD

And yeah.. It's always sounded like, "**** it.. Your name," to me, too.. LOL

[Clayton]

In The last song I'm wasting on you I thought Amy was saying:
but it's over now instead of, but I'm older now

[Lorelei]

I think "Sweet Sacrifice" has the most for me :p
I'm too guilty for the "One day, I'm gonna **** up your name..." bit ;) Sometimes I just sing it deliberately!
Then there's "You know you live to gravy..." instead of "You know you live to break me...".
THEN there's "And Oh you want to hate me, don't chill out..." instead of "And Oh you want to hate me, don't you honey..." :p

In Lacrymosa I always think Amys singing "Out on your own, cooling our round again..." at the beginning!

In Your Star, I always thought it was "I CAN see you're star" instead of "I can't see your star".

And in Good Enough, I always thought it was "One day you'll smile again" until I read the booklet, but I always sing that line now so it's gonna be hard to get out of it! :D

[Aerdna]

In Your Star, I always thought it was "I CAN see you're star" instead of "I can't see your star".

Amy's saying can't? Oh wow, I've been thinking the same thing!

[SpiritHawk7]

This is kind of old, but when BMTL came out, I thought that in between the lyrics, where amy sings BMTL in a somewhat low tone, I thought that she was just humming/moaning BMTL.

Same thing happened to me again in Lacrymosa when she sang the word "Honey" near the end.

Then, when I bought the albums, the very first time I listen to the cd's, I read the lyrics and was corrected.

[Random Shy Girl]

I usually read the song lyrics first before listening to the song, so I don't really hear things other than what Amy's really saying. But I know that I was too lazy to look up the lyrics for "Going Under" when I first heard it, and for months I thought she was saying "slurring and stirring" in the second verse. Then I realized that something was wrong there. :p

Random Shy Girl

[Dark_Horse]

in "Lithium" on the very last chorus i thought amy was singing "Stay in love with me" instead of "Stay in love mmm mmm"

[equilibrium]

i too thought it was "lock the last stupid door, my ghosts are gaining on me" before reading the booklet cuz it does sound like it.

[Ayria]

Real Lyrics: "Bring me to life"
What I thought: "Hmmm, tonight"

[Tennyo]

In Lacrymosa "I don't wanna hold you back now LOL". I was like FTW *Dais*. My listening skillzz get worse every day.
Now I can't listen to Weight of the World without laughing about the "like god in heaven gave me a turd" :D

[sketch]

I think everyone thought Amy said '****' in Sweet Sacrifice. ^_^

Yeah, we all love hearing Amy talk dirty. You can't deny it people, I'm on to you :D

[piko1]

"Cloud Nine"
you listen to this .. If you want to live, let live
you hear If you want to live, zer live
i play it 1000 times and it is same

[ShadowCat713]

Like You...
"Halo
blinding wall between us
melts away and mumblemumble leave us alone again
mumblemumble haw-ing.. mumble eye-ee ah aire mumble mumble
I believe love can see us through
in death"
I am not really one to misinterpret, just hear mumbles. So I am like WTF is she saying? BUT
for Going Under I thought it was "I______ dive again.. I'm GOING UNDER" instead of I'm dying again. Honestly, I think it sounds more like I dive again. Even after I know what it really is. I don't care what anybody says!!!!
(=

[Charlie]

This thread is ****ing hilarious. I LOL-ed a couple times, literally... good thing nobody's in this room cause they would've thought I was crazy.

Oh wait. I am.

[Chili]

hahaha i love this.
i used to make a very silly mistake, in my last breath i always heard "holding my left breast" instead of "holding my last breath" which is truly idiotic LOL i was listening to that song for the first time (back in 2003!) and i was like What the ****, what kind of a band is taht...? man... i feel so stupid ^^

my friend told me about one of her mistakes, in tourniquet, she always heard: "I Diving! Praying!..." lol ^^

[Amie]

man, I've had a couple. I usually look up the lyrics though, or read them when I first hear the song. I remember listening to a song and knowing the words for a line in a chorus, and thought it sounded like something else, so just for kicks, I sung that once. Then, everytime i was singing to that song, I kept singing "my lyrics" instead, it was weird, because I knew what the real words were, oh, and the first one here, I was pretty sure weren't the lyrics, but I sang it that way because it sounded like it

So yeah. My mistakes

Like you - Song: Stay Low Me: Hay Lo
Sweet Sacrific - Song: you're gunna down in my lost pain Me: in my LAST pain
Sweet Sacrific - Song: now that I'm unchained Me: now that I'm haunting
Weight Of The World - Song: Free Fall, Free Fall, All through life Me: All through the night

To be quite honest I just realized now that those last two were lyrics I was singing wrong! :p

[Lynndenial]

Original - Nothing real love can't undo
What I heard - Nothing real hugs can tug down :P
Original - I long to be like you, sis, lie cold in the ground like you, dead
What I heard - I long to be like you, sis, lie cold in the ground like you, dad (I was thinking 'Wtf, Amy's dad died too?')
Original - So afraid to open your eyes, hypnotised
What I heard - So afraid to open your eyes, in the dark
Original - Never understood this life, and you're right I don't deserve
What I heard - Now Heaven ran down stupid slight, and you're right, I'm doomed to serve

I'm not kidding, this is really what I heard. Well, the part of one the last one I had to make up what I heard but it was quite different from the original lyrics. I need new ears.

[Anthony]

Sweet Sacrifice:
Original lyrics-- "But it's so clear now that I'm unchained"
My own stupidity-- "But it's okay now that I'm unchanged"
All That I'm Living For:
Lyrics-- "All that I can't ignore alone at night"
mine-- "All that I can't ignore alone and I
Lyrics-- "Lock the last open door"
mine-- "Lost through that stupid door"
Good Enough:
Lyrics-- "Pour real life down on me"
Mine-- "Pouring life down on me"

Am i the only one who made these mistakes?!

[EternalWanderer]

I thought it was "Pour real life down on me" too! lol and in Your Star i thought it was "holding parts and pieces" o.O

[rainfall]

My Last Breath:
What I thought was "As you fail to rise" turns out to be "fade to black"

Whisper:
I thought it was "I rise to meet the air", but it's 'i rise to meet the end' z

o_O

[Rioterra]

I heard in Lacrymosa:
There is no smile to waste on you :D

[Lorelei]

Hehe, I love this thread :p

I was listening to Missing today, and started to sing along and the bit that goes "Even though I'm the sacrifice, you won't try for me not now..." - I keep singing as "Even though I'm the sacrifice, you won't triffle me, not now..." :p

[Joely Moley]

Call Me When You're Sober :

Real Lyrics : "Can't keep beleving we're only deceving"
The First Time I Heard : "Can't keep believing, we're offly dearing"

Lmao!

[AeternusAmatorius]

In "All That I'm Living For" I also heard "Lock the last stupid door" at "Lock the last open door"

In "Like You" I hear:

Well when she sings "Nightmares and lonliness" I used to think she said something else... I can't remember what though...

Now to waste, or wait, and leave us alone again
A humming, A haunted somewhere out there
Correct lyrics:
"Melt away and leave us alone again
Humming, haunted somewhere out there"

Not now
Correct lyrics: You're not alone

And as we lay and silent this
Correct lyrics: And as we lay in silent bliss

In Lacrimosa:

Can this be what you really are, dead baby.
Correct Lyrics: Can this be what you really wanted, baby?

Tonight you blame it on me
I’ll set your guilt free

Correct Lyrics:
“To let you blame it on me
And set your guilt free.”

And they can blame it on me OR And let them blame it on me
Just set your guilt free, audy

Correct Lyrics:
“And you can blame it on me
Just set your guilt free, honey”

Now I know the choir sings the “Lacrimosa” from Mozart’s "Requiem" but this is what you can hear if you didn’t know that...

“All the people, stop
Here/Where is he, now
All the people, stop
Yeah.

All the people, stop
Here/Where is he, now
All the people, stop
Ohh, Ahhhh.

All the people, stop
Here/Where is he, now
All the people, stop
Ahhhh.

Amen.”

Lol.

In "Weight Of The World:"

Still in the dark, and you between.
Correct lyrics: "Still in the dark, can you fix me?"

And all, I know you don't believe in me.
Correct Lyrics: And oh, I know you don't believe in me.

Safe in the dark, again you see.
Correct Lyrics: Safe in the dark, how can you see?

Lithium:

Couldn't hide the emptiness or let it show
Correct Lyrics: Couldn't hide the emptiness you let it show.

Drown by will to fly
Correct Lyrics: Drown my will to fly.

Cloud Nine:

Don't lie to me
Correct Lyrics: No light to lead the way.

Beg my broken heart to bleed
Correct Lyrics: Beg my broken heart to beat.

[Keyja]

in cmwys instead of "just get your things" I understood "just catch up things" and I was like ????

I know. That happened to me. I never understood it either. Haha.

[Inspired]

For quite a long time I kept thinking that in Lacrymosa it was "and in this short life, there's no time to waste on you" when it was actually 'and in this short life, there's no time to waste on giving up"

although i do like my line better =P

[Binyamin]

All That Im Living For

Lock the stupid door the ghosts are ganging on me

LOL.

[AdventChild]

In Lithium i thought "always find my place among the ashes"
was "always find my place among the edges"

Like You i thought "blinding wall between us"
was " blinding warmth between us"

both just a word off but i thought those were it until today

[EvFan713]

In the "rap" part of Sweet Sacrifice I thought this is what it said:

[I dream in darkness
I sleep to die
Erase this sentence
Erase me live
Our burning asses
Back in the day
A world of *mutters*
Blow me your way]
Instead if:

[I dream in darkness
I sleep to die
Erase the silence
Erase my life
Our burning ashes
Blacken the day
A world of nothingness
Blow me away]

Hehe...am I the only one who thought that way? :P

[Katie@EvThreads]

Bring Me To Life:
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems

I heard:
I've been sleeping all these years in tears

[Tarjanian]

In the "rap" part of Sweet Sacrifice I thought this is what it said:

[I dream in darkness
I sleep to die
Erase this sentence
Erase me live
Our burning asses
Back in the day
A world of *mutters*
Blow me your way]


Dude, thats funny! :p

Snow White Queen

don't scream anymore my love, cause all I want is you
all I want is you
all I want is you
all I want is you
(and i don't, and i don't, and i don't, and i don't)

[fallacy1901]

On Good Enough, at the beginning of the song...I thought she was saying :

On day you'll smell again
Correct Lyrics
Under your spell again

:p

[Purple Harlequin]

oooone daaaaaay I'm going to **** up yourrrrr naaaaaaaame!
Yes.

In Like You:

Where Amy sings
#Humming, haunted somewhere out there#
I thought she actually said: "Harming, hunted something aware."
Man, I'm deaf.

[Foxfire]

The first line of Good Enough
I heard "One day you'll smile again", not "Under your spell again"

OMG, I am completely guilty of this one for sure!. Even though I've read the lyrics and listen to the song a million times a day... I think reading what you wrote is the first time I've realized it was Under your spell again."

Wow!

[Anthony]

All That I'm Living for--
Actual lyics-- "Should it hurt to love you?"
Me being dumb, yet again-- "Should I have to love you?"

[Natalie]

The first line of Good Enough
I heard "One day you'll smile again", not "Under your spell again".

hahaha I thought she said that too! it works either way :p

[Nightmare Angel]

Hold on guys! Here I come with a pretty collection of perfect stupidity!

Tourniquet -- Put one leaf live more (But only brought more)
Snowwhite queen -- Stare as my world good-byes (Stare as my world divides)
Before the dawn -- I am nothing more than the saver of men (I am nothing more that to see you again)
So close -- Never read me wanted (Never left even one chip)
Going under -- I die again (I dive again)
Always confusing. That ****s in my head!! (Always confusing the thoughts in my head)
Dull out your head (Don't want your hand)
Where is the meaning in these???
If you want some more, write me! I'm the wackiest lyrics' remix-er!

[phistuck]

I used to think the lyrics to My Immortal were "held onto me" instead of "have all of me", but only for a little while when I first got the CD.
I thought she said "Your face upon us" instead of "Your face it haunts". I know it does not even sounds alike, but I guess I mixed the instrumental and the vocals somehow to hear that, or my mind made its own One second of instrumental at that part and it came to sound like that.

And I always though she said "But you still have" and then "All of me". It took me like... Two years to find out that she actually sings "But you still have all" and then "Of me". Sad, but true.

[Aloi]

Me singing So Close..

I walked by statuuuuues never even made one chip oooooooh but if I could make a mark on the monument of the heart I just might lay myself down and ...,kfjsdlfhasdlfkhnsdlkfjbndl;kfjsbndlf... THE LAST DAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

[Lacrymosa Demon]

"One day I'm gonna **** it - your name." - Sweet Sacrifice

I don't know other songs, but from what I read in this thread, those remixed lyrics are so funny actually.

[Lacrymosa Demon]

"Honey, haunted so.. Brad Pitt" ..? Like You
"One sweet day, you're gonna drown in my last pain" - Sweet Sacrifice
"God believes that I feel good enough" - Good Enough

[EmptyChild]

In CMWYS I heard "must be exhausting to lose, you're all gay" instead of "must be exhausting to lose your own game". But I swear, even now, it still sounds like she says it because you can't hear the 'm' in 'game'.

And to Piko1, you're right - it doesn't matter how many times you listen to 'Cloud Nine', I get:

If you want to live, let live
If you want to go, jus go

And then the second time I hear:

If you want to live, jud live
If you want to go, jus go

And am I the only one not guilty of the "f**k up your name" line in 'Sweet Sacrifice'? lol!

[Chiara]

Lol this topic is so funny! I cannot stop laughing! Lol

[Glaedr]

The only time I can remember mishearing any lyrics was in Weight of the World.

Instead of... Free Fall, Free Fall, All through life.

I heard... Faithful, Faithful, All through the night.

[Lauren1]

for tourniquet i saw this thing that said " I lay dying and i'm pouring crimpson red bread and beach mail" and the chorus is " my god, my turn i quit, return to me salvation"! i thought it was hilarious when i saw it.

[evanescence64]

"Sweet raptured lie"
Instead of "Sweet Raptured Light".

[Hethlouise]

in BMTL when Amys hangin off the building i think, and she says "Ive Got To Open My Eyes Th Everything", i thought it was:
"fgfcbhsfekcnh OWN ASS IN EVERYTHING!!!!!" i couldnt understand it!

[Hollee]

ahh yes the ever so famous Sweet Sacrifice flub up.

"One day...I'm gunna **** UP...yourrr name!"

*dies laughing* I remember everyone hearing that for the first time. We're all like ZOMGZZ!!!11! teh Ames curseded!

Like we haven't heard it before...:rolleyes:

[Anthony]

Your star-- "All the birds and bees, they swim lonely"
instead of, "All in parts and pieces, swim lonely"

And this one was weird:
Snow White Queen-- "I can't escape the twisted way you funkled me"
instead of "I can't escape the twisted way you think of me"
I know it's dumb, but that's seriously what i thought she said, which is why it wasn't one of my favorites... Come on! I know I'm not the only one!!

[Hollee]

Come on! I know I'm not the only one!!

*sings* You know you're not the only one.

sorry...had to.

[EndlessPain]

When I first saw the Lacrymosa's commercial, I thought Amy was singing " I so want to hold you right now" instead of "I don't want to hold you back now"

And in Sweet Sacrifice, I also thought she said the F word, too.

[Yosimar]

In Lacrymosa i thought she said "Im such a good freak"..lol
and in Weight of the world i thought she said "People, People" instead of "Free Fall Free Fall"

[sparklebutterfly]

Heard something that didn't sound right in the lyrics to an Ev song? Post it here!

At first in "All That I'm Living For", where Amy sings 'lock the last open door', I thought she was saying "lock the stupid door' :p

thats what i thought too......only i thought it was lock the last stupid door...how funny! :)

[Without Remorse]

Lithium: "I wanna stay in love with my socks." should be "I wanna stay in love with my sorrow"
Bring Me To Life: "Pops is inside the porn" should be "There must be something more"
Bring Me To Life: "Bleed into me" should be "Breathe into me"
Everybody's Fool: "Can't find your socks" should be "Can't find yourself"
Missing: "Cheese, cheese forgive me" should be "Please, please forgive me"
Lithium: "Always find my face among the rashes" should be "Always find my place among the ashes"

[Sonja]

hahaha twice today i thought i heard when i was listening to All That I'm Living For ' Lock The Last Stupid Door' XD

[Freefall]

I kept hearing, "I wanna stay in love with my soul"
I was like.. what??? ... hahahaha

that happened to me too XD
and i understand leave my blood tu run instead of bid mi blood to run...by bring me to life...
and there are a lot of others but i can't remember them:P

[Rock_Faerie]

The first time I heard Your Star I thought Amy was singing "the mechanical lights of this world" and not "the mechanical lights of Lisbon" :o

[Passerby3030150]

lol i can understand most of these but the one I noticed that sticks in my head the most is in "Lacrymosa", i always hear the following

To let you blame it on me
And set your guilt free
"A dawn a" (should be "I don't want to") hold you back now love

i kept wondering what that was when i heard the trailer so that was the first thing i went for when i got my copy of the album was the lyrics for "Lacrymosa"

[milas_lacrymosa]

In Like you keep hearing

"my weakness and loneliness" instead of "my nightmares and loneliness"

[Freefall]

The first time I heard Your Star I thought Amy was singing "the mechanical lights of this world" and not "the mechanical lights of Lisbon" :o

that happend to me too!;)

[Starrdust007]

When TOD first came out & I heard Sweet Sacrifice, there's this one part where Amy says "One day I'm gonna forigive your name" and I could've sworn she was saying "I'm gonna ****in'" something-- and I had to rewind it & go, wait, was she cursing just now? lol, then i was like OHH it's "forget".

And I dunno if this thread is open to other songs beside Ev? But if I may make everyone laugh at my stupidity:
when Rob Zombie's CD came out, Educated Horses, (keep in mind that's the NAME of his album) the first single, Foxy Foxy, where he says, "Don't you wanna ride it...educated horses" I SWORE (and i sang along with this too) that he was saying, "Don't you wanna ride it, educated ho sex" lololol. Now whenever I think about that it cracks me up.

[Alter Ego]

In "Your Star", I used to think that the line "all my fears turn to rage" was "I like fields/Time to rape". Go on then, call me a pervert...

[L]

In "Your Star", I used to think that the line "all my fears turn to rage" was "I like fields/Time to rape". Go on then, call me a pervert...

Ohhh, you're such a pervert :p .

Ok, I've heard some ditry stuff on Evanescence's songs too...so It's better to me not to say anything ;) .

[sparklebutterfly]

before i thought "lock the last open door" (in all that i'm living for) was "lock the last stupid door" i thought it was "look at who's stupid now."
and i'm sure i've made a lot of mistakes intrepreting ev songs, thank god for song booklits, but i can't remember exactly what i thought the lyrics were before i new the real ones.
snow white queen was a hard one for me to understand at first....but i can't remember what i thought the lyrics were....it all sounded kinda mumbly, but when i read the actual lyrics the words came out and made sense :)

[Winry416]

On Lithium, I kept trying to make it say, "I want to stay in love with my soulmate." Finally, i read the lyrics and admited to myself that it didn't say that.

[AmungTheAshes]

I used to think in Haunted that she was saying.

"Hunting you I can smell you a knife (alive)" and I was like WTF mate O-o


LMFAO!! I thought that too! haha

and when I first heard My Immortal I thought it was "and if you laughed at me, i wish that you would just leave."

hmmm, lol haha

[Sparkling Gray]

In Like You where Amy sings "There's room inside for two", I thought she said "There's romance I fortune " and in My Immortal I always thought the words were "and you still left me", turns out it was "and you still have all of me". In Cloud Nine I thought it was "and if you wanna live, just live, if you want to go, just go." and in All that I'm Living For I too, like alot of people, thought it was "lock the last stupid door!" In CMWYS I thought it was "How could I compurge (not even a word) paradise?" but in the lyrics it's "how could I burn paradise?" But I still hear compurge! Finally, in The Last Song I'm Wasting On You I thought it was "Without your sentience. Hey, hey, hey, hey" but alas, it was "Without your senseless hate... hate... hate... hate."

[Wish]

I know a misprint! I was sitting here,like what the ****?

In track 3, weight of the world she begins,
"don't cling to me I swear I can't fix you"
They have printed "don't cling to me I swear I fix you." How stupid does that sound?

[Vern]

Up until I read this thread, I thought Amy sounded pretty clear. And now, whenever I listen to TOD, I hear all the mistakes everyone else heard.

[Sparkling Gray]

I know a misprint! I was sitting here,like what the ****?

In track 3, weight of the world she begins,
"don't cling to me I swear I can't fix you"

Oh, my God! I never noticed that until you brought it up! I just checked, OM Gosh, you're right! :eek: I'm overeactting, aren't I? Nice find, Converschik!

[Wish]

thanks! I'm found it the first time I got the album. The album is like GOLD. You can call me Jess btw, first time someone talks to me ='[

[Anthony]

My Last Breath-- "Look for me in the life of a skiving little hollow tree [come find me]"
instead of "look for me in the white forest hiding in a hollow tree [come find me"
Just listen... you'll hear it!!
I don't think "skiving" is even a word, but I was like :eek:" What does skiving mean?!"

I noticed the mistake in Weight of the World the first day I got the booklet... It made me ANGRY!!!

[xx_i_dont_sleep_xx]

ive misinterpreted quite a few ev lyrics in my time, when i first heard the lacrymosa clip, before i got the album, i thought it said, "too much is leaning on me", instead of "to let you blame it on me" so i thought the song might have been "weight of the world" because the lyrics would have matched the title lol. im still convinced that haunted, says "haunting you" instead of "hunting you" lol. i know i used to sing the imaginary lyrics completely wrong but it was so long ago i cant remember now! oh and i also thought that sweet sacrifice said "im gonna **** it, your name", and i was quite disappointed that amy lee had been reduced to swearing in her songs, as ive always really admired the fact that she could always find better adjectives! :p oh yeah and in ATILF i thought she said "lock the last up indoors" instead of "lock the last open door" lol!

[Sparkling Gray]

I thought simalar to that, except I thought it was "too much you blame on me" and it says "hunting you"? Are you sure, I always thought it was "haunting you" because of the title "Haunted"....

I just remebered another few lyrics I misunderstood. In "The Only One" i thought it was "All our lives we've been waiting for someone to come and lead us" but it's "to call our leader". In All that I'm living for where it says "Help me understand the lesson", I once thought it was "Help me understand Evanescence". And I also once heard "Oh, but I'm such a whore!" instead of "All that I'm wanted for". :o

[Burning_Angel]

well the first times i listened to Lacrymosa i heard

"Dont Want you blaming on me,
You're such a good freak honey,
I don't wanna hold your back now, leave!"

Sweet Sacrifice

"One Day im gonna ****ed your name"

The Only One

"all our lies we've been waiting for someone to call us leaders
and all your lies im not beliving
Heaven shine a lie down on me"

All That I'm Living For

"all that i'm living for
all that im dying for
all that i can ignore, alone i might
all that i wanted for, oh how i wanted more
lock that stupid door
the ghost are caminig on me"


CMWYS

"You love me, come find me"

Lithium

"Cant be a freak until i let it go, let me go"

Snow White Queen

"undress with the duck"

Your Star

"and the my chemical band's on lisbon, finding a way" (??)

[remnantsofsoul]

IN THE BEGINNING OF 'BRING ME TO LIFE' I THOUGHT SHE SANG "...UNTIL YOU FIND IN THERE IN ME, IN MY HOME..." WHEN REALLY SHE SINGS "...UNTIL YOU FIND IT THERE AND LEAD IT BACK HOME..."

[sparklebutterfly]

okay i thought of another one......
in cloud nine when she sings "beg my broken heart to beat"
i thought it was "beg my broken heart to bleed"
i dunno, that line would be darker if it was bleed instead of beat....lol! :)

[Sparkling Gray]

In "Snow White Queen" when I first heard I thought it was "Stop life blood, for don't look bad, all grass in the dough" lol. I was so far off. :p In "Your Star" I first thought it was "The lights of this world frightened it away".

okay i thought of another one......
in cloud nine when she sings "beg my broken heart to beat"
i thought it was "beg my broken heart to bleed"
i dunno, that line would be darker if it was bleed instead of beat....lol! :)

I always thought it was bleed... I think I have hearing problems...[/COLOR]

[Gregory]

Sweet Sacrifice--
"You poor sweet innocent thing, dry your eyes and testify."

..I can't remember exactly what I thought it was, but it involved potatoes.

potatoes? thats fantastic! :)

[GirlAnachronism]

I use to think in haunted it was "Haunting you" instead of "Hunting you" lol! And probably some more I can't think of right now.

[CLens]

I just remebered another few lyrics I misunderstood. In "The Only One" i thought it was "All our lives we've been waiting for someone to come and lead us" but it's "to call our leader".

That is EXACTLY what I heard.. The Only One was a mess for me, I heard so many wrong things..

I thought hypnotized was "they're locked tight."
I heard "if I can't feel, I'm not LIVE, I'm not real." Instead of "if I can't feel, I'm not mine, I'm not real."

I don't remember all the misheard lyrics, but I do remember it was VERY hard to understand what Amy was saying during the first listens.

[Sparkling Gray]

you reminded me of another one. sheesh, i'm on a roll today :)
in "The Only One" where it says
"All our lives
we've been waiting
for someone to call our leader"

i thought it was

"All the lights
weep in waiting
for someone to call or lead us"

and when it says
"we're all grieving
lost and bleeding"

i thought it was
"we're all creeping,
lost and bleeding"

and lastly....
when it says
"if i can't feel, i'm not mine,
i'm not real"

I thought it was
"if i can't feel, i'm not loved,
i'm not real"
and i was like, but amy, you ARE loved! lol ;)

[Anthony]

The Last Song blah blah blah...
"Second in the sun..."
instead of "Sickened in the sun"

[xx_i_dont_sleep_xx]

okay i thought of another one......
in cloud nine when she sings "beg my broken heart to beat"
i thought it was "beg my broken heart to bleed"
i dunno, that line would be darker if it was bleed instead of beat....lol! :)

i thought that too lol

[xx_i_dont_sleep_xx]

I thought simalar to that, except I thought it was "too much you blame on me" and it says "hunting you"? Are you sure, I always thought it was "haunting you" because of the title "Haunted"....

yeah see thats what i thought, but apparently it really is hunting! (it says so in the lyrics booklet u get with the album!)

[Derimay]

"beg my broken heart to beat"
I never understood that line. :/ Always thought it was "mend my broken heart to piece".

[le_noir_rose]

in 'the only one' where she says

if i can't feel, i'm not mine
i'm not real

i thought it was

if i can't feel, i'm not alive
i'm not real

the only one is a bit hard to understand, isn't it? still awesome though. :)

[xxInsomniaxx]

"Like GOD in heaven gave me a turd."

ok so I listened to Weight of the World again and since you said it, it seriously sounded like turd and then I couldn't stop laughing the whole rest of the song! cause imagine if that was actually the words and it was supposed to be serious and all! pahaha I'm never going to be able to listen to that part again now :p

And I also once heard "Oh, but I'm such a whore!" instead of "All that I'm wanted for". :o

and I thought of alone at night after that.. we're totally ruining the songs lol

[12345678987654321]

Sweet Sacrifice: And one sweet day, you're gonna drown in my love's pain
The Last Song I'm Wasting on You: Sparkling gray, my own way
My Immortal (Evanescence EP outtake): But you still have half of me

[12345678987654321]

Bring Me to Life: We need to lie

[12345678987654321]

I thought simalar to that, except I thought it was "too much you blame on me" and it says "hunting you"? Are you sure, I always thought it was "haunting you" because of the title "Haunted"....

It's called "Haunted" because of some lyrics that didn't end up being used: "Watching me, Haunting me"

[12345678987654321]

As I read I keep remembering more
Bring Me to Life: I'm about to run, Before I come undone

[12345678987654321]

Bring Me to Life: Breathe into me and make me real, I need you tonight
The Only One: All our lives, We've been waiting, For someone to call on me, yeah

I don't mean to sound mean, but do you mind stop triple posting. You could have easily put all of this in one post.

Weight of the World: It's "I can't fix you"? I thought it was "I can fix you"!:confused: I blame the cover!:p

[Evanescence_Kitty]

I don't I ever sang the lyrics wrong, I read the lyrics from the CD case front to back! :D

Hehe, when Call Me When Your Sober first came out, I thought the verse went like this:: Should have let you push, losen up, someday maybe you can remember your self

Boy, I was sure wrong on that one lmao ♥

Original : Always find my place among the ashes

*sighs* Maybe it's just because I've been hearing my best friend talk about Phantom of the Opera for nine months and the word has been permanently stuck in my brain. :p

Random Shy Girl
I love the Phantom of the Opera! The 1943 movie is very funny.

[Lauren1]

At the end of the chorus for Snow White Queen I always here "Don't scream I didn't mow my lawn cause all I want is you"! lol.

[Katie@EvThreads]

Lacrymosa
I heard:
and in this short life, there's no time to waste on helium

It actually is:
and in this short life, there's no time to waste on giving up

[Ayria]

Cloud 9
I heard: "I don't wanna touch this gay"

Actual lyrics: "I don't need to touch the sky"

[muriel]

i also always think its 'beg my broken heart to bleed' although i KnOw its beat, i always sing bleed :S its stronger than me! and also in cmwys i always though its 'dont crowd me if you loved me...' and its 'dont cry to me' ... :S

[Tiffany]

i also always think its 'beg my broken heart to bleed' although i KnOw its beat, i always sing bleed :S its stronger than me! and also in cmwys i always though its 'dont crowd me if you loved me...' and its 'dont cry to me' ... :S

I thought the same thing for CMWYS when I first heard the sample.

[Darkangelofrock]

The Only One :
don't look down, you'll **** down,
you'll become their sacrifice....

Sorry, but that's what I heard. lol.

[Katie@EvThreads]

i also always think its 'beg my broken heart to bleed' although i KnOw its beat, i always sing bleed :S

It's alright, your not the only one.. I thought it was that, so at first I sang bleed instead of beat, and now it just comes out even though it's beat.. :p

[Sweet_Decedance]

Lithium

Original : Always find my place among the ashes
Misinterpreted : Always find my face among the asses (LOL!!)


Going Under

Original : Now I will tell you what I've done for you, 50 thousand tears I've cried
Misinterpreted : Now I will tell you what I've drunk for you, 50 thousand beers I've tried.


LMFAO!! this is the funniest one

[Ayria]

We've ALL done this one:

Sweet Sacrifice
Real lyrics: "One day, I'm gonna forget your name!"

Misinterpretied: "One day, just gonna **** it, your name!"

[Hethlouise]

i still cannot uderstand the part in CMWYS, though i know the lyrics, it sounds like Amy sings


"How could i have burned Prararidise"

[Sweet_Decedance]

paradise.. you mean?

paradise by defintion means a pleasant place

so it's a methaphor.. shes saying how could she have left that very pleasant place she was once in for him... since he never belonged to her.. anyways .. get it?

[Pandabearmaster]

Heard something that didn't sound right in the lyrics to an Ev song? Post it here!

At first in "All That I'm Living For", where Amy sings 'lock the last open door', I thought she was saying "lock the stupid door' :p

Lol same here except i thought it said "Locked in that stupid door"

[jonathanmoriarty]

....never wanted it so clean so cold...

Instead of "...never wanted it to be so cold..." :o

[Rapunzel]

haha, like two days ago I realised that I've had Bring Me To Life wrong this whole time. It must've been the acoustics in the shed that made me hear it right.

Real - Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
Misheard - Kept in the dark but you were there afraid of me

I just knew it wasn't right, lol.

[Q<3EV]

Haha I thought that same thing for the first little while...My friend heard my and corrected me though :)

Nothing big but in "Like You" I thought she said 'calling for you' instead of 'coming for you'

[Sweet_Decedance]

My brother pointed out that during bring me to life he thought amy was singing "Ive been sleeping a 1000 years it seems, got to open my ass to everything" ROFL thats so wrong

[dreamchaser_83]

on "like you" where she says "i'm not grieving for you, i'm calling for you" i thought it was "i'm not grieving for you, i'm coming for you" the first time i heard it.

[Sparkling Gray]

on "like you" where she says "i'm not grieving for you, i'm calling for you" i thought it was "i'm not grieving for you, i'm coming for you" the first time i heard it.

It is "coming for you", it even says in the book..

[dreamchaser_83]

baaah i got it backwards! ha ha ha *slaps head* ah well you get the jist k the first time i thought it said I'm calling for you! k there we go....blonde n00b moment there...wooo

[Innocent Eyes]

it's nothing major, but for an embarassingly long time i did think in Tourniquet Amy song 'i LIKE dying'..instead of 'i lay dying'. First time i heard it i thought-er-riight- that doesn't make a whole lot of sense..

[SunriseDream]

Tourniquet
"I lay dying and I am boring concern regret and bet real"

Okay this is not so funny or weird but in the Lacrymosa clip I thought it was
"Too late to blame it on me
I don't want to hold you back now, leave"

[thedarksun...]

The radio reception at my house sucks, so the first time I heard CMWYS, I heard "Drink your Kool-Aid" instead of "And you're too late"

I thought Imaginary was "watch my troubles fly right over me" instead of "watch my purple sky fly over me"

I thought Forgive Me was "you're not shattered anymore, you're silently broken" instead of shouting. I liked that one.

[LacunaAffectus]

Someone posted this site (http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/e/evanescence/lithium_crd.htm) in the sheet music thread and I just HAD to post the lyrics they have up on the site here...

Lithium dont want to lock me up inside
Lithium dont want to forget how it feels without
Lithium dont wanna stay in love with someone
Good God....I wanna let it go.....
Come to bed dont make me sleep alone
Couldnt hide the emptiness and let it
Never wanted it to be so cold
Just didnt drink enough to say you love me
I cant hold on to me wonder whats wrong with me
Lithium dont want to lock me up inside
Lithium dont want to forget how it feels without
Lithium dont wanna stay in love with someone I....
Dont wanna lay me down this time
Drown the will to fly
Here in the darkness I know myself
Cant break free until I let it go Let me go.....
Darling I forgive you afterall
Anything is better than to be alone
And in the end I guess I had to go
Always find my place among the oceans (lmfao)
I cant hold on to me wonder whats wrong with me
Lithium dont want to lock me up inside
Lithium dont want to forget how it feels without
Lithium..... stay in love with me
Im gonna let it go.....

Oh man...someone really needs to learn the songs..Even listening to the song I don't see how they got some of those phrases...Funny stuff

[Lacrymosa Demon]

Snow White Queen

"undress with the duck"



XD LOL, that's really make me sick. Tuna Afternoon should be in SWQ. XD

[silently_broken]

ONE DAY IM GONNA FORGET your name
i really thought it was IM GONNA **** IT your name ¬¬°
damn!

[Sparkling Gray]

In The Only ONe where you hear a duck quacking, I always thought it was a man giving a sinister laugh. But until someone on the bored posted it was a duck I've been going crazy. I mean, what's with the duck?

[Exurbia]

ONE DAY IM GONNA FORGET your name
i really thought it was IM GONNA **** IT your name ¬¬°
damn!

Haha!! lol I thought it was that also. And I was thinking why Amy would curse in a song...
It's funny now that we know the real lyrics.

[Unrequited-Amz]

I am actually REALLYT sure it IS Stay in love with me.

I'm really sure!

I heard it too.
I think it has to do with the message of the song...stay in love with me..

[Pandabearmaster]

Tourniquet:

Original: My God, my tourniquet

Misheard: My God, My turn i quit

Cloud Nine:

original: If i fall and all is lost, no light to lead the way

misheard: If i fall and all is lost, you lied to me this way

[Sparkling Gray]

After I was reading the lyrics on Fallen, I realised how much of "Bring Me to Life" I heared wrong but I liked the lyrics I misheared better! :P

Heard: "bleading your doubt into my core"

When it should be: "leading you down into my core"=

Heard: "until you find it there in me: back home"

Should be:"until you find it there and lead it back home"

Heared: Walked into the dark but you would never follow me

Should be: kept in the dark but you were there in front of me

[Tiffany]

I always thought the last time she said, "Stay in love with me" also....I thought I was crazy

[XxImaginaryxX]

God... I've had quite a few misheard lyrics... Here are mine...

Going Under -

Heard - IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII........ Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive again....

Real - IIIIIIIIII'm..... Dyyyyyyyyin' again...

Everybodys Fool -

Heard - Oh how we love you, No for laws when you're pretending...

Real - Oh how we love you, No flaws when you're pretending...

Whisper -

Heard - He reckons me shall I give sin, upon my death shall I give in, forsaken all I have before, I eye him in the rim... XXD

Real - She beckons me shall I give in, upon my end shall I begin, forsaken all I've fallen for, I rise to meet the end...

CMWYS -

Heard - And yours truley...

Real - And you're too late...

Also from CMWYS...

Heard - How could I... have *mumble mumble mumble* HOW COULD I??

Real - How could I... Have burned paradise... How could I?

Like You -

Heard - I long to be like you, sis, lay cold on the ground like you, tis...

Real - I long to be like you, sis, lay cold in the ground like you, dead.

Thats all... XXD

[LearEV]

I though sweet sacrifice was, "You poor thing, in the end things right, try your rights and sacrifice."

Thats doesn't even make sence.

[aimi]

Anywhere
Real:Drop your guard
I thought it was :Drop Your GOD

[Stariana]

"oooone daaaaaay I'm going to **** up yourrrrr naaaaaaaame!"

HAHAHAHA!!! That is what I thought too!!

I can't remember what I thought the lyrics were, but I know I've misheard some before. I think I just quickly looked them up and corrected myself. I always do that. So I don't get to be funny and sing "I've been looking in the mirror for so long, that I've come to believe my shoe's on the other foot" for 3 months. :P

[Evan]

oooone daaaaaay I'm going to **** up yourrrrr naaaaaaaame!

I thought that too

[Vampire1516]

Lacrymosa:

"You're such a good freak, honey.."


I thought that too!!!!!

[Cascade]

I know someone said it in here, but it sounds like "I've woken now to f*** myself" in Away From Me. Only once though because of really bad timing with the backround vocals.

[Sparkling Gray]

God... I've had quite a few misheard lyrics... Here are mine...

Going Under -

Heard - IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII........ Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive again....

Real - IIIIIIIIII'm..... Dyyyyyyyyin' again...



I heared that too! I was even more convinced in the video when Amy dives into the crowd while saying that line.

[Cascade]

I heared that too! I was even more convinced in the video when Amy dives into the crowd while saying that line.

I thought that too. It fits a lot better in my opinion.
I mean "Going under..... drowning.... diving" it all fits together.

[EvenInDeathGirl]

Even though it makes no sense, I thought she said "ooooh NEVERMIND!" in CMWYS instead of "you were never mine"

[PirateQueen]

I dunno why but I once misheard the line in Imaginary where it says 'candy clouds of lullabies' as 'candy clouds of long ago'

[KrazyKelly]

I am famous for misinterpreting lyrics

heres a recent one:

[In Farther Away]

I heard: I run to you ,but Im deaf and blind
Actuall lyrics: Im numb to you, numb and deaf and blind

[Lauren1]

Ok, I can't be the only person who heard "Don't scream I didn't mow my lawn cause all I want is you" in Snow White Queen can I? Did anyone else hear it?

[--Lacrymosa--]

I am famous for misinterpreting lyrics

[In Farther Away]

I heard: I run to you ,but Im deaf and blind
Actuall lyrics: Im numb to you, numb and deaf and blind

haha, i love this one, i run to you but im deaf and blind?

teehee.

i NEVER misinterprete lyrics, .....only because i google them first:P

[Derimay]

Heared: Walked into the dark but you would never follow me

Should be: kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
Well then I had the lyrics wrong. :p I always thought it was "Kept in the dark, but you were there to follow me"
gaaaah!

[LovelyPoison]

oooone daaaaaay I'm going to **** up yourrrrr naaaaaaaame!

haha when I first heard this song I thought it was "one day I'm gonna **** ..(insert babble here).. in your name" and I was like "wha????? I didn't think Amy would use a word like that in her lyrics" (not that it would bug me if she did though as I am prone to cussing myself)

[Lauren]

Well...it's not really funny or anything, but I thought "My ghosts are gaining on me" was "the wolves are gaining on me" I think it's because the first time I heard it was after watching he CMWYS vid.

[Clayton]

In missing:
"and you'll say to no one, isn't something missing"
I though she said: Satan... something something. lol :p

[Sparkling Gray]

Here's some more that I remembered from a while back:

Give Unto Me:

Heard: I want to kill you, I want to save you (I'm like: WTF?)

Should be: I want to heal you, blah, blah, blah....."

CMWYS:

Heard: "You can't blame the victim this time"

Should Be: "You can't play the victim this time"

Lose Control:

Heard: "If we pray very quiet, my love. My love never has to know"

Should Be: "If we play very quiet, my lamb. Mary never has to know".

Heard: "If I ever conjure down to think I can lose you, I fear there'll be nothing good left of you"

Should Be: "If I cut you down to a thing I can use, I fear there will be nothing good left of you"

[AmxIxGoodXEnough]

Ok here it goes:

All That I'm Living For: All that I can't ignore, I'm only nine...
Real: All that I can't ignore alone at night

Good Enough: Great, my heart is bleeding in your hand
Real: Crave my heart and it's bleeding in your hand

Anything For You- Can you forget the whore you thought you knew (XD)
Real: Can you forget the world that you thought you knew

[FrozenFears]

Good Enough:

"Shouldn't have let you talk to me so sweetly .."

Sweet Sacrifice: (like everyone :D)

"One day I'm gonna **** up your name! .."

ATILF:

"Lock the last stupid door .."

Lithium: (When I first heard it)

"In beyond, I guess I had to fall .."

:p

[Evhead007]

We need to get the band members on here they would laugh their heads off!!!!

:D

[Amie]

lmao. some of these are really funny... like someone's Kool Aid bit.

I sometimes get the old word or two wrong, but usually the first time I listen to a CD, I like reading the lyrics with it. Also, when I get something really weird (again, like someone's Kool Aid thing) I tend to look the lyrics up :p

[Kelly]

My friend is absolutely shocking with lyrics, and I was laughing at her today when she told me what she thought they were..

In Lithium: "Never wanted it so clear, so cold" Instead of "To be so cold"
And "I wanna stay in love with my soul" instead of "Sorrow." I was like - What? How would that even make sense!? Heh.

And in CMWYS (Two of my friends did this.. I was like whaaat? it doesn't sound anything like that!) "If you want me, confine me" instead of "If you want me, come find me". Actually, now I think of it, it would be an easy mistake to make.. But if they were the real lyrics, that would be a little disturbing I think.. And another one in CMWYS "Couldn't take the blame, secret shame" instead of "Sick with shame". Haha, my friends are d0rks!

[AmxIxGoodXEnough]

Haha that's hilarious XD

[liza_jane]

snow white queen:
"cant escape the twisted way you finger me"

..welli knew thats not what it would have said but it sounded like it! lol

[Yellowierd0]

Haha! These are sooo hilarious XD
When I first heard CMWYS I thought that instead of 'You want me, come find me' it was 'You want me, confide in me' * XD and the same thing that most people have said for Sweet Sacrifice.

[Froskest]

HAHA! When I first heard Bring Me To Life, I thought that Paul sang
"For all this time, all I wanted was to ask you for a cup of tea" xP

He ways "All of this time, I can't believe I couldn't see"

A friend of mine thought it was "my gun, my tourniquet" not "my God my tourniquet". I lauged my ass off. :p
But still. Not worse than mine BMTL. xD

[Our Demise]

In Snow White Queen,

where it says "soon I know you'll see"
I used to think it was "soon my love you'll see".

Also in SWQ,

instead of "I can't save your life"
"can't sail away."

Hahaha the second one is kinda weird.

[RuxyReZiDeNtTM]

On Going Under I thought "I die again" , not "I dive again"

On "Bring Me To life" On McCoy part > "Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me" ... first i thought "Kept in the dark but you were there follow me"

"Thoughtless" I thought ... "All of my heaven cannot be found instead" of "All of my hate cannot be found"
