Lyrics You Can't Make Out

Posted

it's always bugged me - there's certain songs that you just can't quite make out what he/she/they are saying. and unlike other lyrics, you can't google 'em. here a couple of the top of me 'ead.

epitome of sound - you don't love me...

you told me that you loved me baby

said i was you lover man,

every time i saw you talk to him,

you said he was just a friend.

It's just the way you said 'i love you'

that made me think that i was awww rawwwwwwww <<<<(WHAT IS HE SINGING HERE??????) It sounds like all wrong, but that simply would follow on from the previous line in any way that made sense - so what is it? any ideas?

also bobby reed - i'll find a way - what are the backing singers singing throughout?

two of my fave songs there - and i've just admitted that i don't know what they are singing!!! chuckle.

cyber-pint for any help.

Following " it's just the way you said you LOVED me " , I believe it is "that made me think it was evidence that I was all gone "

I'll see what I can do with Bobby Reed .

The first line of Jimmy Reed Jnr 'I ain't going nowhere'-

For an embarrassingly long time, my cloth ears heard this as "Bees can make a wave of honey"

Conjures up a lovely image, I'm sure you'll agree, but oh so wrong

Thats three of us, all thinking the same thing !! must be more surely ?

Anyone have any idea what sort of jewellery Eugene Record had around his neck in Overdose of Joy?

And around his neck he wears a DA DA DA DA jewellery.....

Jerry Williams - If You Ask Me......

What are the words?

"You're my real hope, my ambition,

my reason for living is GAY.

I'll be out on da da da da,

there's nothing left to say."

:lol:

Brian,

I think Jerry Williams is...

.....my reason for living each day

you're the alpha and omega

there's nothing left to say....

But, if anyone can help with the second line in Barbara Mills Queen of Fools...

Well I'm the Queen of Fools or so they say.........

then what on earth comes next???????

Cheers

It is "all wrong" rymes with "so long" in the last line It fits, if you take it as this.. When he says 'It's just the way you said I love you..that made me think that I was all wrong" He means he can tell from the way she says it, she don't really mean it, and he's wrong to have believed her before. thumbsup.gif

Can't fit Mr Burtons explanation in, the "evidence that I was all wrong"?? far too many words! Have knocked most of the backing track out, and slowed it down, and it is 99% he is singing "wrong" thumbsup.gif

MARJORIE BLACK .... ONE MORE HURT.... what's that all about? laugh.gif

Have wanted to know what the words are since i started going to niters... 20 plus years later and i'm still non the wiser.... Anybody... biggrin.gif

Brian,

"Yes I am and i caught VD only yesterday" wicked.gif

Have a little look at this mate https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.p...ic=15114&hl= There's the lyrics to 'Stop overlooking me' amongst others in there .. thumbsup.gif

Freddie Scott 2nd verse-

He said your baby sent me and then he kind of smiled.

He said lets get aquainted, cause ile be staying awhile.

I hope you dont mind becoming ?????????(what?)-

And by the way my name is Mr Heartache.

Tried to fathom this one loads of times ?anyone!

Epitome of sound - all wrong

Hi Mr M, Just dug out Clyde Mcphatter's version and am listening to it as I type, here you go...." I hope you don't mind me becoming your room mate?" thumbsup.gif

Here's one that's always got me since I first heard it ...George Blackwell's "Can't Lose My Head" the verse after the break.....

Misery has finally found me and

it's tearing me apart,

I can't even eat or sleep now,

(here we go!) there's a "fish tank" in my heart.....great to dance to but I'd always come of the floor thinking....." a fish tank.....in his heart?", deep or what?.....

Anyone out there who can put me straight on this one?...it'll always be fish tank to me though biggrin.gif

" I hope you don't mind me becoming your room mate?" thumbsup.gif

For a longer time than I would care to admit on a public forum (cough) I was under the impression that the first verse outlined Freddie's disappointment with a Fed-Ex parcel:

"when my vest arrived, I thought that I made some mistake....."

epitome of sound - you don't love me...

you told me that you loved me baby

said i was you lover man,

every time i saw you talk to him,

you said he was just a friend.

It's just the way you said 'i love you'

that made me think that i was awww rawwwwwwww <<<<(WHAT IS HE SINGING HERE??????) It sounds like all wrong, but that simply would follow on from the previous line in any way that made sense - so what is it? any ideas?

I think it is

'that made me think that I was all wrong

I can't believe you're moving out there

After being here so long......'

"....and there's great pains in my heart"

Following " it's just the way you said you LOVED me " , I believe it is "that made me think it was evidence that I was all gone "

I'll see what I can do with Bobby Reed .

I stated that " I believe it is " ...... not that it is .

Everybody warned me baby to keep away from you

They say his got the holding power and I just can’t break loose

Boy you never treat me like honey like a good man should

Even though I still love you bad, you know that you’re no good

Now one more hurt ain’t gonna hurt no more

Than the pain and the hurt that I felt before

Boy you’ve got that special something that makes me feel good inside

Any time that I’m good to you ????? you go and hurt my pride

Then you make me love you gladly and you treat me real good

Then you go and mess around like I knew you would

Now one more hurt ain’t gonna hurt no more

Than the pain and the hurt that I felt before

If you’re really gonna love me baby, like you say you do

The devils gonna make you ?????? to walk away from you

If you keep on running honey and your funny ways

You gonna be the one to be ?????? in my grave

One More Hurt - Marjorie Black -
