misheard blur lyrics...

[leequoiz]

I used to hear "disarm me" at the end of Beetlebum, took me a while before I found out I was wrong

I never heard that, but I really like it as the lyric, especially considering the whole "she's your gun" thing.

I could never understand what that bit was at the end until I looked up the lyrics, but I don't think I heard anything specific. What are the backup vocals in that song? I still have no idea.

I also hear "running cray" in Charmless Man.

Even though I've told her the actual lyrics, my sister still continues to sing "I got my head, yeah, by a jumanji" in Song 2 (it makes zero sense though)

Anyone know what the machine noises are at the end of Beetlebum?

Graham posted on the old forum that his guitar noises on Beetlebum involved 'lots of hammering'... is it this?

[Foggy]

He's shunned Denmark St for B&Q ?

Back in the 90s, I only knew their biggest hits, and it's only later, when I got into Graham's solo stuff that I ended up listening to all their albums, and when I first listened to "Repetition", I thought Damon was singing "Pikachu, let me go" instead of "Eager to let me go", and I was like "WTF???!! " before realising Pokemon didn't even exist in 1991.

Streety said the vocal sample that was used in that outro was Blur's manager Chris Morrison rambling about stuff!!

In Sweet Song the:

"So I wean myself off... slowly" part I thought Damon said

"So I wee myself".

"cause they remind me of Swindon..."

Poor Damon!

I was listening to the song with headphones today and now it sounds nothing like Swindon WTF Only my crap laptop USB speakers lol, that's why I probably didn't notice it before a few days ago.
