Professor Of Rock has released the video below, along with the following introduction…
“You know, sometimes, songs that become classics aren’t quite what we think they are. Hidden meanings, mistaken lyrics, or misunderstood messages. All of those things. These are tracks that have fooled listeners for decades. We’re going to count down and share the crazy backstories behind the most misunderstood songs of all time… including Van Halen’s feel good party anthem ‘Jump’ that we all sing, but it was actually inspired by a chilling live news broadcast about a man ready to leap off the roof of a building. Then there was the obsessed fan that stalked Sarah McLachlan, sending deranged letters which she used as the basis for one of her biggest songs ‘Possession’, only to have the crazy fan sue her claiming his obsessed meanderings inspired the song, find out what happened. And finally, The Beatles wrote the most complicated nursery rhyme ever recorded, ‘Maxwell’s Silver Hammer’, with a very adult theme that is so creepy it still gives us nightmares. Top 6 Most Misunderstood Songs Of The Rock Era is next on Professor Of Rock.”
