Any else find a few? BTL's are wrong, they read (on the first line) "I am only dreaming" and Peacemakers, instead of saying weak, it says meek?

Posted

Sorry?

Posted

I noticed on the lyrics that were up online. Oh well.

i agree that it's not a huge deal, but how hard would it be to just proofread it?

Posted

Lol @ the grumpy people.

There's something about me that likes it when there are mistakes with lyrics in the books/websites. x]

Posted

I was singing and reading along...and this fucked me up. XD

Guess I gots to listen reaaaaaalllllll close.

Yeah, it seems like a noticed a few when I first looked, but I can't remember what they are now. I'm fixing the ones I find on GDA as I notice them, so I appreciate it if people speak up.

Posted

dude, there's mistakes in practically all their lyric books.

Posted

loling @ the people bitching at you.

but yeah, i didn't notice the mistakes.

You guys are talking about the Best Buy Limited Edition right? this is pretty off topic but, im wondering if this is the same booklet that they gave to people when they played the bay area shows in April. Could anyone shed some light on this?

I'm pretty sure that the mistakes are intentional. The lyrics in the book don't list the chorus multiple times, etc. I'm not sure the book was designed to be a lyrics book, per se. It seemed more like a book of concept art with words written all over the art.

I've seen this in MANY albums

I always thought that sometimes, the singer decides to change bits when singing it

I have the normal edition and the booklet has mistakes, too.

I don't think not listing the chorus multiple times was a mistake.

No, the one they gave at the Fox show was more like a pamphlet.

Don't you think they proofread it before printing out millions of copies?

Unless you have Billie Joe saying that those are the exact words, I would go along with what is in the CD cover.

Erm it's ok, well, everybody makes mistakes.

I don't really mind i dont read the lyrics to songs that often anyway so i dont really care

Also maybe those words were the original words and Billie changed them last minute?

Whoops. That's what I get for leaving bits out.

I meant that there are several things that could be viewed as mistakes, that aren't actually mistakes at all. That was one of my examples.

Besides, does it really matter? This seems more like trolling than anything else. If it's a mistake, it's a mistake, if it's not, it's not. I don't see what the big deal is.

i don't think it really matters.

fans will get the right lyrics eventually, and it's probably a word or two wrong.

nothing to fuss majorly over :)

and Peacemakers, instead of saying weak, it says meek?

it is meek in peacemaker...look on the lyrics on the website...and you can hear he says meek in the song not weak

Posted

"the righteous and the meek".

.. that's my jam, yo.
