Misheard Lyrics Story:

And they whirl anti-twirl, anti-tango
or
And they whirl anti-twirl any tango.

Original Lyrics:

And they whirl and they twirl and they tango.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Sheila Evans

I once thought that 'Muskrat Love' must be some highly rebellious dance, since it was 'anti-twirl' (whatever that is) and possibly anti-tango as well. BTW, it wasn't until much more recently that someone sought to assure me that the song is about actual muskrats, rather than, as I'd previously assumed, some kind of metaphorical take on some human activity.

Comments:

Neil Sedaka had a major comeback in 1975. Not only did he score #1 hits with 'Laughter in the Rain" and "Bad Blood," he wrote this #1 smash for the Captain and Tennille. Even the background singers sing "Sedaka Is Back" near the end of the song.
