My question is really simple. Years, or even months after you heard a song, have you ever realized you misinterpreted the lyrics? If so, say what you misinterpreted.
In 1991 "Waking up the Neighbours" by Bryan Adams came out. I loved this album and listened to it on my Walkman (audio tape!) constantly. The lyrics for "There will never be another tonight" start out like this.
Put on your best dress darling
Can't you see the time is right
There will never be another tonight.
I heard the words correctly, but I thought he was saying something akin to "There will never be another girl like the way you are tonight." or something else romantic.
Lo and behold, I realized today he was actually trying to say that tonight is special and we should live for the moment.
I listened to this album a lot when it first came out and I've been listening to it off and on since then. 18 years!
On a side note, this rock album seems to be decently recorded and mastered. No crazy dynamic compression. So it might be a nice used buy for some of you.
