You know the song "Oh Fortuna"? You probably do, but didn't know that was the name. It is most famous (at least for people around my age) as the "major battle" song in the movie Excalibur (1981). You know how some people (maybe even you) have mis-heard lyrics before in a song? Especially songs where the words aren't especially clear ("Inagaddadavida" by Iron Butterlfy comes to mind - it really is "In a Garden of Eden"). Then what happens if you don't listen to the words of "Oh Fortuna" very carefully?

Well, you get something like this...


Enjoy!

1 - Have you seen this site?

2 - Genius Emoticon

For those interested, it's from the opera Carmina Burana, but in the UK, most people over thirty would recognise it as the music from the ads for Old Spice aftershave

3 - There are two that come to mind:

1. "There's a bathroom on the right" (Bad moon on the rise)

2. "You and me and Leslie" - the Turtles

4 - Absolutely classic.

5 - Reminds me of a wonderful comic sketch by the Two Ronnies (Ronnie Corbett & Ronnie Barker) of UK comedy fame.... some local yokel comes into his village's general store with a list of items he wants to purchase. First item: "four candles". Store keeper gives him four candles. Customer's reaction: "Nah... four candles"... anyway, after much confusion it turns out that on the customer's list is written: "fork handles".... you know, handles for forks!
Now, how many times have you heard a customers say one thing but you heard quite another thing? Happens all the time....

6 - While on the subject of "tuna"....

You can tune a piano but you can not tune a fish!
