In the John Parr song, there's a line that goes "Soldier on, only you can do what must be done."
Until the late 1990s or so, I thought it was, "So Gerard, only you can do what must be done."
Anybody else make that mistake?
I did too! Ha, I never realized it was wrong until I saw your post!
shareI know this an old post, but I just have to share my misheard lyrics of this song.
I was 15 when it came out and bought the single in summer of '85.
Towards the end of the song where Parr sings:
"I can hear the music playing, I can see the banners fly"
Now don't laugh....but I always heard (and also sang along)....
"I can hear the music playing, I can see the pandas fly"
Yes, I did wonder to myself that it made absolutely no sense, but I liked the image of pandas flying, so that's how I always allowed myself to hear it.
It wasn't until many years later online when I read the lyrics that I laughed out loud saying...."ohhhh! THAT'S what he's saying!"
But you know what?...I still prefer the image of the pandas flying and continue singing it that way. :)
"Gonna be a man in motion, all I need is a pair of wings."
shareI used to think "blazin' sky" was "Cajun sky".

I finally saw all the lyrics on youtube. I knew some of them, but not all of them. It happens because singers aren't always clear when they sing *beep*
