Golden EaringBand Name Origins:
- Golden Earring originally started as The Tornado's, in 1964. But after an international hit from an English band with the same name, they changed their name to The Golden Earrings, after the song by Peggy Lee. In the late sixties the band name was shortened to Golden Earring. In an interview on Dutch television, Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin called the greatest rockband of Holland: "Golden Herring".

Misheard Lyrics Story:
|
"Twilight Zone"
Misheard Lyrics: So you'll come to know
When the bullet hits the phone. Original Lyrics: So you'll come to know
When the bullet hits the bone. |
Story about this misheard lyric by: Simmie@mpixx.com As an aging boomer, I've been out of the music loop for a couple of decades. While driving home from work, I was trying to zero in on my local NPR station and stumbled upon good ole rock 'n roll. This song came on, I loved it. When I went home, all I knew was the lyric 'When the bullet hits the phone', which came up empty when i tried to Google it. Frustrated, I e-mailed the radio station. They set me straight, but not before I had invested a good couple of hours in searching for the wrong song hook. Classic mondegreen, I'd say. |
