Bastard of 1967 Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Hey gang - does anyone know offhand what Mike's backing vocal is during the very end/outro of Hitchin' A Ride? I think it's "Don't know where you are" but I'd love a second, third, or even fourth read on it. Then, at the close of the song, Billie Joe sings something unintelligible like "wuh wub wuh wub wub wub" -- anybody here every figure THAT one out?Thanks!
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I always thought Mike sang "don't know where to go"About what Billie sings, I've heard 2 versions: he sings "2,1,2 ,1,2" (or "2,3,4,1,2") or nothing really, just gibberish.
Eirik Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Mike says "Don't know where I'm going", Billie just says random sounds.
mechanicalman Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I thought Billie said one way or wrong way or something.
elisa Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Mikey sings 'Dont know where I'm going' and Billie says "2-1-2-1-3" or smth like thatEDIT: Eirik was faster
Dai. Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I am gonna keep this one open anyway, but this thread might help you out
Bastard of 1967 Posted July 6, 2009 Author Posted July 6, 2009 I am gonna keep this one open anyway, but this thread might help you out I searched first, I swear I searched first!! :/ Thanks for the quick replies everyone!
Clayish Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I looked on the internet, and people think its "take one for the road trip!"It actually sounds like it
Miqui_Dee Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Mike says "Don't know where to go", or at least that's what it sounds like and Billie is just rattling off numbers and random babble.
ifmemoryserves Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I'm pretty sure Billie once said that the ending is just random gibberish.
Dai. Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I searched first, I swear I searched first!! :/ Thanks for the quick replies everyone!No worries dude It's an old thread, so I'm leaving this one open to keep things fresh.
Brian Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I always thought it was Billie mumbling numbers and stuff.
Robin105 Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Mike says "Don't know where I'm going" and Billie says 2,3,4,?,1,2 I'm not sure what is after 4 though.
Hermione Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Yeah I'm pretty sure the Billie stuff is just nonsense. I remember an interview where he was asked what he said at the end of Reject and he said it was nothing, just random sounds. I reckon it's the same with Hitchin' A Ride.I always thought Mike was repeating "Don't go hitchin'" in the background. In fact I'd never even thought it could be anything else for a second
J'net Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Yeah I'm pretty sure the Billie stuff is just nonsense.

I reckon it's the same with Hitchin' A Ride.I always thought Mike was repeating "Don't go hitchin'" in the background. In fact I'd never even thought it could be anything else for a second I think Andres was correct in the original thread with "Going nowhere boy" or maybe it's "Go nowhere boy." Also, Billie has definitely said it's gibberish, and I happened to notice - I'm pretty sure it was at Vancouver but maybe Seattle (I can tell if I watch the vids, because I remember where he was standing when I noticed) - that it was clearly gibberish. I watched his lips, and he also made a face that made it clear it was nothing with any meaning.
Fuzz Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I started to believe that it's "Don't know where I'm going"
Hayley Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Yeah I always thought it was "Don't know where I'm going"And I always thought Billie said "Say one say one three"
Sharmellow Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I started to believe that it's "Don't know where I'm going"Yeah, same here.I definitely believe Mike says "Don't know where..."Then, Billie says something along the lines 1,2,1,3 and a bunch for gibberish.I don't know, something like that. Yeah I always thought it was "Don't know where I'm going"And I always thought Billie said "Say one say one three"That's possible, he could have said "Say one say one, two and three."
Eirik Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I started to believe that it's "Don't know where I'm going"I think they might've said that it was... cause i'm not the type of person to decipher what's being said.
amy_runs Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 As stated above, Mike sings "Don't know where I'm goin"
Juliette Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I always thought Mike sang "don't know where to go"About what Billie sings, I've heard 2 versions: he sings "2,1,2 ,1,2" (or "2,3,4,1,2") or nothing really, just gibberish.this. could you not just google the lyrics ? :/

Jack96 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Mike says "Don't know where I'm going",Mike says that and i think BJ says something like 1,2,1,2,3,4its "say one way one way one way" while mike's saying don't know where we're going Oh really ok cool
