For @wirralass, since you love Johann Strauss too!😛 His father was also Johann Strauss & referred to as either Johann Strauss Senior or Johann Strauss I. He was a big brass brand leader who composed pieces of music for brass bands & his most well known piece is The Radetzky March. As to the “Waltz King” himself, that’s why he’s sometimes referred to as Johann Strauss Junior or Johann Strauss II.

One of the greatest pop songs ever written. With Carl Wilson’s angelic voice...

 

Not only is this music enchanting to one's ears ~ but the video is amazing with beauty and splendour.

Now, I’ve been listening to Bette Midler’s album It’s The Girls this morning!🙂 Quite amusingly, I suddenly realised what the ACTUAL lyric is for the song Mr. Sandman that, I now know, I’ve always heard wrong!🙄 The correct lyric, I suddenly realised, is “Mr. Sandman bring me a dream”, which I’ve always misheard as “Mr. Sandman bring me a drink.”😱:D🙄


It’s the way that Americans pronounce things!🙄 For years I always misheard Michael Jackson’s lyrics & thought he was singing “Jam On”; jam on what? instead of “Come On”:D “Eddie, are you ok?” instead of “Annie, are you ok?”

NOW, the song lyrics actually make sense given that Mr. Sandman is associated with sleep & dreams: like the tooth fiary to children losing their milk teeth! Ahhh!🙄:D

Edited to add:-* Like the infamous misheard lyric “One ton of melon” instead of “Guantanamera“. Which, incidentally, I’ve always heard correctly since I know it’s a cuban cigar. But, I understood immediately when I read that a lot of people misheard from a thread about misheard song lyrics someone, sorry can’t remember who, posted on these forums recently!🙄

This is so funny - literal video version, someone is singing what is happening in the video in the style of the song
Total Eclipse of the Heart


Here's where I pretend to Eva Peron - Look at me, I'm lifting my arms, there's nothing else to shoot, so zoom camera under this arch
Leaning on myself because there's two of me here, but now there's only one of me in this shot.
I pull my feathered hair whenever I see floating cloth
