Songs I love but can't understand....oh my goodness, there are so many. Let's start with this one. I've been listening to it since I was 10, and I still don't know what the heck is going on....I just shout out nonsense, like "She leeelaa and-a hope she unda-sta-hand" ...…
It's Gene singing. 'nuff said.
Haha..yeah. But Paul did it, too,at least in the early days. It took me a couple of years to decipher “ She loo-goocheeloo hotter than hell”. |

I'd also like to add every popular song by the band America.
There are too many examples of their drug fueled nonsensical lyrics to list.
On a positive note, they DID create the term Purple Rain.
(Prince! Miss ya, bud!)

Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting - Elton John
My Elton pick would have to be Bennie and the Jets.
That whole G Damn song is one big mumble.
"Hey kidsh! Rowlin tame whosh she tawin fonah lash sheh la da la da osh whenn. Something something stick arounddddd!"
I believe these are actual lyrics...
Yeah, not to mention, "She's got electric boobs"... |

This one has puzzled me forever. Hmm - I dunno - It's a marvelous night for a moon dance? Seems to make sense to me, but then again where I live we have a lot of indigenous folks (We called them aboriginals for a while but some prefer to be called First Nations)
I do like Van Morrison a lot!

Love this song, but I know the story. It is a parody of a T.V advert by the Transport Accident Commission in the 90s using footballers as an example not to use drugs and alcohol, at the same time a footballer was killed in a car accident. For legal reasons his name was changed to Greg , tune of let the sunshine.
