Lyrics #5

Lyrics story #1 for today:
This one is on the radio right now and I had to post. I very fondly remember an un-named friend blasting out some great "misheard lyrics" in college to this one:

I'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

Misheard as:

I'll be love's supersize
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest van in your life

*UPDATE* Lyrics story #2 for today:
I just auditioned for a friend's a Capella group and sang a song that I love. There is one line that really stands out and I hope I keep the words with me when I am married:
40 years go by with someone laying in your bed
40 years of things you say you wish you'd never said
How hard would it have been to say some kinder words instead?
I wonder as I stare up at the sky turning red.
This is a group of early to middle aged women for the most part. I heard a couple of noises when I sang this part.

I had no idea you were so musically inclined to be into acapella music! How very cool.

I'm 0.5 for 5 and getting worse....
