In Faster I first heard it as 'A song about mountains', but It's 'I am stronger then Mensa'.

I heard "I stare at the sky" in This is Yesterday as "I stare at bus stops"...

I think it's the accent.

I like your misheard line, though. Makes me wanna write a song about taking the city bus to a place I've never been before.

Me too.

Actually I could imagine Nicky writing a song based on that.

Of late, I keep hearing the end of 'Motown Junk', "we live in urban hell" as 'we living up in herre'. This would suggest, erroneously however, that boys pre-dated DMX's 1999 hit 'Party Up' by some 8 years.

It has to be Hussein though, "who's saying" doesn't make any sense, Hussein makes 1120% sense.

You Stole The Sun From My Heart

"Drinking water to stay thin
Or is it to pee with?
I love you all the same."
