Misheard song Lyrics

This is what that song was originally:

Shel Talmy, the producer, did what a lot of people did in the music business. He took an older song, altered it slightly, and then took credit for royalties.The Kinks, Zep, and The Who all have a several tracks of repurposed blues.

There has always been “theft” in music. The blues artists that Zep borrowed from borrowed from those before them

and if it weren’t for LZ, I never would have heard of people like Willy Dixon and Howlin’ Wolf.

Alan Lomax was a genius.

And if it weren't for Nicki Minaj


you never would have heard this:

 
With the lyics in front of me,
or hearing it on YouTube now,
I don't know how I misheard this, but in the 1980's
in Steppin Out by Joe Jackson

"You babe, steppin' out Into the night, into the light"

always sounded to me like

"Speeding ... , through the red light"

Yes, I miss underheard that song as well my friend.

The last time someone on Badger and Blade mentioned that song I must've spent an hour on yootoob watching different versions of that song!
 
I had wondered about this one so long ago that I had forgotten.

Another One Bites The Dust by Queen

Even knowing that Freddy Mercury is singing
"Bite the dust, yeah!",
it still sounds more like
"I'm adopted! "

It's not just me.
I googled this and there's a lot of people who have heard it that way
and can't unhear it.

And thanks to you I will forever hear it that way my friend!
