Maddy. Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 I used to hear something else instead of lonely, but it wasn't breaking. Can't remember what.It happens far more often that I can't even make out anything of what he's saying, nothing, not even wrong words, only syllables that don't string together to words. Or things like haaeeuaahooooo.brb dying what song's that?
Princess Consuela Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 It happens far more often that I can't even make out anything of what he's saying, nothing, not even wrong words, only syllables that don't string together to words. Or things like haaeeuaahooooo. Yeah, same. The best example for me is 'I Want To Be Alone' when he sings With you around, you'll only add on. It makes me laugh every time I listen to it. It sounds as if he was missing some lyrics and filling gaps with lalalalala faowadhgfsdn;loG WKAJGFUKs.
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 brb dying what song's that?Half of their discography.
lovelyrita Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 ^WTF I always sing 'breaking' I always thought it's 'lazy'. WTFhttp://www.lyrics007.com/Green%20Day%20Lyr...w%20Lyrics.html
Mrs. Nobody Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 I'm not going to even try to understand some of American Eulogy's lyrics. aha
Penguin Puffball Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 I don't really think Billie's that difficult to understand.Fall Out Boy's lyrics are the ones I have issues with.
Equus1039 Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Yeah, same. The best example for me is 'I Want To Be Alone' when he sings With you around, you'll only add on. It makes me laugh every time I listen to it. It sounds as if he was missing some lyrics and filling gaps with lalalalala faowadhgfsdn;loG WKAJGFUKs.Haha same here. I can't understand a lot of what he says in some of the earlier songs.
newsflash777 Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Lonely. Oh gah, really?I thought it was lazy.I have a feeling that I have most of the lyrics in my life wrong.
Penguin Puffball Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Oh gah, really?I thought it was lazy.I have a feeling that I have most of the lyrics in my life wrong.He does say "lazy" for one part of the song, but after the last verse he says "lonely"
**She** Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 This thread makes me very happy. I always thought that I am the only one who does not understand some songs without reading the lyrics because I am not a native speaker of english.
Nele Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I don't really think Billie's that difficult to understand.Fall Out Boy's lyrics are the ones I have issues with.Well, since I'm not a native speaker I sometimes have just no clue what he's saying. I can't even make out words in some song... like in Jaded, it's "Somebody keep my balance I think I'm falling off" first time I heard the song I just understood something like "Sboy eep ma blanc thin fal of" So yeah, I'm pretty confused sometimes.
Princess Consuela Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 ^Even native speakers have problems with figuring out some lyrics so I don't feel bad at all It's just the way he sings.
ems Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I often have to look up Green Day lyrics on the internet - some are hard to understand. If I hadn't looked up Longview lyrics I wouldn't have a clue what half of them were!
newsflash777 Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 He does say "lazy" for one part of the song, but after the last verse he says "lonely"Oh. Thanks, haha.In "Dead!" by MCR I thought at the end he said "If laughing's just a joke, then why are we laughing?" but it's "If like ain't just a joke, then why are we laughing?"
ems Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Oh. Thanks, haha.In "Dead!" by MCR I thought at the end he said "If laughing's just a joke, then why are we laughing?" but it's "If like ain't just a joke, then why are we laughing?"Oh really! I thought it went 'If nobody gets the joke, then why are we laughing?' I think those lyrics are better.
newsflash777 Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Oh really! I thought it went 'If nobody gets the joke, then why are we laughing?' I think those lyrics are better.Hahaha I like that. Gerard can be so hard to understand too
Penguin Puffball Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I could swear he says "If life ain't just a joke, then why are we laughing?"
xLilyx Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Holiday by Green Day:When I heard it in 6th grade I thought he was saying "I beg to dream and differ from the hollow rise"I didn't know what the hell that was but I would just sing it as that anyways Slave 4 U by Britney Spears:When I was little and I heard this.. I thought the line "Baby, don't you wanna dance upon me to another time and place?" I originally heard "Baby, don't you wanna dance up on me to another diamond place?"
Penguin Puffball Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Holiday by Green Day:When I heard it in 6th grade I thought he was saying "I beg to dream and differ from the hollow rise"I didn't know what the hell that was but I would just sing it as that anyways Don't worry; I used to hear "I bet you true men get that from the hall of lies".
xLilyx Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Don't worry; I used to hear "I bet you true men get that from the hall of lies". That's lyric is actually pretty cool
Penguin Puffball Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 That's lyric is actually pretty cool Very contradicting though
newsflash777 Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I could swear he says "If life ain't just a joke, then why are we laughing?"Yeah, that's right.
greendaygal89 Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I often have to look up Green Day lyrics on the internet - some are hard to understand. If I hadn't looked up Longview lyrics I wouldn't have a clue what half of them were!lol i have to do that sometimes ha
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Oh, if you really wanna mess up your lyrics, watch videos like this
Juliette Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Yeah, same. The best example for me is 'I Want To Be Alone' when he sings With you around, you'll only add on. It makes me laugh every time I listen to it. It sounds as if he was missing some lyrics and filling gaps with lalalalala faowadhgfsdn;loG WKAJGFUKs.God, I don't even try to understand I Want To Be Alone
