[Godhead59]

Baying of the Hounds - everyone you loved lives in Denver

That's classic!

 

[Saihtam]

In the beginning of Baying of the Hounds it sounds like he's singing "best made tacos of the earth". It may be mentioned earlier in the thread, if it is; burn me.

 

[Scherprechter]

Yeah. Best made tacos of the earth and diabolical peas roaming the forest. The man has a pea obsession I tell you.

 

[Blind Guardian]

"Like a bird of prey over the crest"
"Like a bird of prey over the question"

 

[funeralportrait91]

To Rid the Disease 2:32-2:37

failed... nowanderleaheeeze...?

It always bothered me.

it just sounds like some swedish conjuration of a word..

thoughts?

LISTEN TO IT BEFORE YOU LOOK UP THE LYRICS.

Feint, moment release..

If you had actually bought the album, you'd see he says "faint movement release".

 

[Hybrid_Child]

In Harleqin Forest I didn't get what Mike was singing at the "As they die alone, with noone by their side, are they forgiven" place.

I thought As they die alone sounded more like "Mr. Dialogue" or "Mr. Dial 0" or something.

 

[Wander]

Great thread!

I am absolutely great at mishearding lyrics when I haven't checked the booklet. That's why I decided to write improvised "Ghost of Perdition" lyrics while listening to the song. Here we go:

"Ghostaar murdered fingering deeerr!
Ghost of harvest spin!
I saw from the pillow
corrodable hellmm!
Crisping faces proper heeelll!
Ghost Of Perdition
STUCK IN A CHEESE!"

I could go on through the song, but it'd be too tiresome.

I hear the same thing in Isolation Years. "And as i read i'll die alone" sounds like "And as i read the dialouge"
In the same song,"There's a certain detail seen here" sounds like "There´s a certainly tells in here"

 

[ingenkommentar]

In The Drapery Falls, I always hear Mikael sing "Dralvisions in haunting sheep" where it's supposed to be "Drowned visions in haunted sleep."
I know "dralvisions" isn't a word but it sure as hell could be.

 

[the opeth affinity]

In under the weeping moon, mike sings "I've searched the eye" but it sure as hell sounds like "Oh your sexy eyes", i'll apologize in advance cause you'll always hear 'oh your sexy eyes now' ha ha!

 

[chrisdoig24k]

lulz, now you've poisoned my mind!

 

[DarkGift]

"Like a bird of prey over the crest"
"Like a bird of prey over the question"

and then "she was sweatin' shallow!!"

I keep hearing weird stuff all over the My Arms, Your Hearse album

 

[Blind Guardian]

and then "she was sweatin' shallow!!"

Haha spot on

Another MAYH one

"It was me,peering through the looking glass"
"It was me,beering to the looking glass"

 

[Blind Guardian]

In this shadow I am choking a virgin...
BASTARD!

 

[DarkGift]

Haha spot on

Another MAYH one

"It was me,peering through the looking glass"
"It was me,beering to the looking glass"

All of them are from April Ethereal!

"a threshold I had crossed before" sounds like "a fresher white crust before" hahaha

 

[bens0n]

If you had actually bought the album, you'd see he says "faint movement release".
