    For years I thought the famous Toto song went "i GUESS it rains down in Africa"


    :confused: Doesn't it?

    I was always impressed the way the IDA got Dolly Parton to sing a song to boost FDI:

    Ireland's Industry
    That is what we are
    no-one in between
    How can we be wrong
    And we rely on each other ah-ah
    from one lover to another ah-ah

    The last line two lines sounded a bit off for an IDA advert but I presume it was to do with Supply Chain Logistics with a personal touch.

    In the this song by Anne-Marie, it sounds like she is singing 'shower the horse' rather than 'ciao, adios', so many got the lyrics wrong that she put a horse in the video.

    For years I thought that Kim Carnes was signing:
    'And she knows just what it takes to make a crow blush' in Bette Davis Eyes.

    For a long time I thought it was this:

    Sour grapes
    This party's over
    I'm going home

    The song is even called 'Celebrate' but I didn't get it.

    Is it "to make a pro blush?" I never could get what she was saying.

    I thought the new Katy Perry song was "Turn it up it's your favourite song. Dance , dance , dance to the disco drum". My mind was blown to realise "disco drum" is actually "distortion"
