'Hold me closer, Tony Danza' and other misheard lyrics

from How We Heard It · host howweheardit

Funny thing about lyrics: They aren't always what you think they are. Whether you hear them the wrong way or someone else heard them the wrong way and passed that misinterpretation on to you, you're often singing along to a different set of lyrics than your favorite singer. What's more, AI and other lyrics you find on Google get them wrong, too. But "How We Heard It" is here to help, whether you're wondering about the guy Jimi Hendrix is going to kiss, why there's a girl with colitis going by, how many times Madonna was touched and what's going on with all the Starbucks lovers, your hosts are setting the record straight (even though they still aren't quite sure about that Manfred Mann/Bruce Springsteen song). They also let you know when your artists aren't actually using the f-word and when they are but are pretending they aren't. And for what it's worth, there might not be a bathroom on the right.
