Mighty Mighty Bosstones

Band Name Origins:

  • Origianlly this Boston based band was named The Bosstones. But the band found out that a barbershop quartet was named that as well. So the band got together and added Might Mighty In front of it. Submitted by: TXCHAINSKAMASSACRE

Stupid Band Names:

  • Why the two "mighty's"? Wasn't one enough? Plus, I understand there are other bands with "tones" at the end, but my question is, just what is a "BOSS-tone" supposed to sound like? Submitted by: Jonathan S.

Misheard Lyrics Stories:

"Someday I Suppose"
Misheard Lyrics:
There was a place and the name of the place escapes me
What I can't remember
It irritates me
Could be I can't remember
Could be I just do not
Let's move along the song
And try to find a plot
There was a girl and Oklahoma beaver
She gave me love and I said I never leave her.
Original Lyrics:
There was a place
And the name of the place escapes me
When I can't rememeber
It irritates me
Could be I can't remember
Could be I choose to not
Let's move the song along
And try to find the plot
There was a girl and I don't know her name either
She gave me love and I swore I'd never leave her.
