Wow, this is a good one. Right up until minutes ago I had this one wrong. I was looking for a song for the Song Association thread, and I know this song starts off with "In the beginning..." so I thought, well maybe that is the song title. It's not, the title is apparently "Silver, Blue and Gold"
I thought, hmmm, I don't recall ever hearing those words in that song. So I queued up the chorus here where they indeed are saying those words, but I was always sure they were saying "In the sewer, lookin' good" Even now, that's what it sounds like to me
I thought he was singing "pοrn underground", but he's actually saying "born underground".
Though considering the fact that he's singing "I am a dwarf and I'm digging a hole, diggy, diggy hole", you have to agree "pοrn underground" doesn't really sound that crazy...
Yes, it's literally a song about a dwarf digging a hole.

They’ll tell you that they love you, like a spider loves a fly Promise you you’re safe, but never look you in the eye
I heard and I swear I still hear "viele Träume an nie wir glaubten" ("many dreams we never believed in"), but today I learned it's "viele Träume an die wir glaubten" ("many dreams that we believed in")
They’ll tell you that they love you, like a spider loves a fly Promise you you’re safe, but never look you in the eye
...I've know this song for as long as it's been out, but never knew what the next line was. I always heard "I will sing this bed-ry song"? wtf is that?
A few decades later it's finally bugged me enough to look it up:

I was just thinking of this the other day. For the longest time I thought I heard Brian Johnson singing "knockin' me out with those American thoughts" not "knockin' me out with those American thighs" oh the idiot I was...
Interviewer to Angus Young: “how does it feel to be the best rock guitarist in the world?” Angus: “I don’t know about that, I’m not even the best guitarist in the band.”

I thought it was "bouts", as in a fight. It's only thanks to Veruca Salt that I realized it was 'thighs'.

^^ Speaking of "Voices Carry" I used to hear "on the downtown... voices carry" not "keep it down now" oh what an idiot I was pt. 2.

Ironically, I misheard this schoolmaster lyric from the end of Another Brick in The Wall Pt II...
I thought it said: "Go on, beat the kids - Go on, beat the kids"
Actual lyric: "Wro-ong, do it again! - Wro-ong, do it again!"
In addition...
I heard: "Hey! Yes you! (unintelligible) Stand still with it!"
Actual lyric: "You! Yes, you there behind the bikesheds, stand still laddy!"
And a little trivia: In the UK in the 1950s and '60s, behind the bikeshed at school was where all the things happened that weren't supposed to happen, like kids smoking and anything else that might have been frowned on by teachers. Behind the bikeshed, because it was mostly out of sight, and less likely to be detected, even by teachers on playground duty, keeping an eye on what was going on.
doriansaero: Hi, I can't find even 24/96 of Toys in the Attic and you mention that it is available in DSD. Do you happen to know where I can get it in DSD or even 24/96? Thanks!
