Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The Eagles 'Hotel California' has a line that sounds like, "Her mind is differently twisted....". What is the correct line?

Answer: Her mind is Tiffany twisted

 'Hotel California' is the title track to the hit 1976 album.
2. The group General Public had a number 1 hit called 'Tenderness', but I swear the chorus was saying, "where is my tuna fish?". Maybe I was just hungry! The actual lyric is...

Answer: Where is my tenderness?

 General Public, great band...but very odd-looking blokes!
3. I have always garbled this lyric...for that matter, I think Diamond Dave himself garbled it. The line is from Van Halen's 'Panama'. It sounds like "hot shoe, burnin' down the avenue, I think I gotta go to the bathroom!" What's he really sayin'?

Answer: got an on-ramp comin' through my bedroom

 David Lee Roth was the original coverman for Van Halen until Sammy "Red Rocker" Hagar took over in 1985.
4. The Violent Femmes had a hit with the song 'Twister in the sun'.

Answer: False

The title was 'Blister in the Sun', but when it was sung in the chorus it sounds a lot like twister to me.
5. Aerosmith had a hit with 'Dude (Looks like a Lady)' in 1987. There is one line that sounds like "her picture greasy grimied the door". It actually says....?

Answer: her picture graced the grime on the door

 Maybe this is so hard to understand because of the gargantuan lips on Steven Tyler, but that's ok, they are an awesome band. Kudos to them for going drug free too! (ok, ok I'm stepping down off the soapbox now)
6. The Beastie Boys had a song called 'Intergalactic'; the opening line sounded like "I'm having dementia". What were they really saying?

Answer: Another dimension

 This song was on the 'Hello Nasty' CD.
7. Boston's mega-hit 'More Than a Feeling' starts out "I looked out this morning and the summer's gone".

Answer: False

"I looked out this morning and the sun was gone"- that one fooled me until just recently. That album came out in 1976, so pretty much I've been singing it wrong for 27 years!
8. Beck had a song called 'Loser', in which it sounded like he said "Boy, from head to toe, I'm a loser baby..." What was the real line?

Answer: Soy un perdedor, I'm a loser baby...

 "Soy un perdedor" is "I'm a loser" in Spanish.
There's even a line at the end of this song that says "Know what I'm sayin'?" Well, not really Beck....
9. When Bush first came out with this song I thought he was saying "got a matching head... green and red". What's ole Gavin really spewing about?

Answer: Got a machine head.... green to red

 Gavin Rossdale is married to Gwen Stefani of the band No Doubt.
10. Chris Isaak had a song called 'Wicked Game', in which he said "No, I don't want to fall in love". Then the backup singers would sing, "This somethin' somethin' somethin' heart". What's that garbled lyric?

Answer: this world is only gonna break your heart

 This is on the 'Heart Shaped World' album.
