Joe Cocker interpreted

Ever wonder what he's really saying? I did too, until I saw this video.

Welcome to the wondeful world of the Montegreen
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondegreen

or as Richard Nixon is attributed as having said "What you thought you heard and what I said are not the same thing".

I.e.
Jimi Hendrix's: 'Scuse me, while I kiss the sky
often misheard as: 'Scuse me, while I kiss this guy.

Creedence Clearwater Revival's: There's a bad moon on the rise
often misheard as: There's a bathroom on the right

Herman' Hermits*: She's a must to avoid
often misheard as: She's a muscular boy

Confirmation: http://www.kissthisguy.com/

* I know a guy who saw Peter Noone (Herman's Hermits) perform "She's a must to Avoid" complete then do a whole verse of what people thought they were hearing on the radio.
