I have too many to mention, the stupid thing is, when I look up the correct lyrics, I still end up singing the wrong ones... :roll:

That's My Impression

"I don't go cause I'm not all in black"

I was shocked to find out it was...........

"I don't go cause I'm not a member" :lol:

"When life is calmer/I have no doubt". I always thought it was "When life is calmer/I end knocked down"...

I remember when Behaviour was released, a U.S. critic wrote about how they must be extolling the virtues of Indian spirituality with the line: "When life is kama/I have no doubt."

what is the rest of that verse? I have problems with 'sift this evidence the blacks' is that what it is?
I also thought that about loyal with a kiss to prove.

In Dreaming of the Queen I heard ' there are no more a voice left alive, that's why love has died'
In Liberation instead of 'all who fell in love' something like 'Ophelia'
Tea or coffee?

Rather tragically I had to look the lyrics up as I wasn't 100% sure myself. Shameful really considering To Face The Truth is in my top five ever PSB songs. :oops: Anyway, the second verse is:

A lawyer with a case to prove
will sift this evidence then move,
it's the only thing to do.
So why then can't I face the facts,
sift this evidence that backs
I am so in love with you.
Passion, love, sex, money, violence, religion, injustice and death. More on that story later.

When I first heard "Miracles" on the radio I thought Neil instead of saying

"The scent of the jasmine is stronger"

I thought it was

"The sense of the jazzman is stronger"
:lol: :lol: :lol:

I love Everton.
Evertonians are born not manufactured.
We do not choose; we are chosen.
Those who understand need no explanation.
Those that don't understand don't matter.

When I was younger I couldn't get hold of the proper lyrics so I got this little exercise book and I couldn't figure out some of the B-sides, I thought Temple in "that's my impression" was Town Hall and I think I wrote a whole new version of A New Life
It's gonna be alright.

Thank You, Goodnight

I do the same thing as I keep reading books when trying to sing along and it never works
