  • Misinterpreted songs

    I was thinking the other day about how often times people sing along to popular songs without any regard to what the song is actually about. Here's an example of what I mean:

    Green Day - Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)
    This song is about the guys girlfriend cheating on him, and her getting dumped. It is not a positive or uplifting song, yet it gets used all the time in that way. It doesn't say "I hope you have." It says "I hope you had."

    Guns and Roses - I Used to Love Her
    The song is about his dog, not his girl.


    Those are all I can think of right now. Please add more.

            Born in the USA... good one. An antiwar song that people use to show support for war . I forgot that one.

              How about Puff the Magic Dragon?

              I guess that's actually like a double entendre sort of song though.
              John Brown did nothing wrong.

                  'Paean' sounds like a name posh British parents give to their unfortunate children.
                  "Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self." - Dennis Kucinich, candidate for the U. S. presidency
