Taking the misunderstanding of lyrics to a whole new, hilarious level.
Molly and I pretty much hyperventilated with laughter when we watched Joe Cocker’s Woodstock performance, subtitled with a fine selection of mondegreens.

I’ll try the html link thing and see if I can do it without breaking the internet.
and *that’s* the way I want to play the air guitar. thanks joe!
Hilarious!
Thanks for the laugh!
“Oh dear, my mascara’s runnin!”
Which when said by Joe sounds like,
“Oh my hair is burnin.”
He did some Wonder loaf indeed!
That was fun. I liked listening to it, as well. Ahh, music before the computer age… Hmm. Is that music from the stoned age?
Great. Now I’VE gotta get my Fred…
I’ve seen this before. It’s awesome.
I died at “somebody’s dad is wavin’ right there”
yes! but I’ve seen Johnathon Bowers do a better air guitar
And that, in a nutshell, is why it’s so easy to make fun of the Baby Boomers.
I almost snorted a grape at the Wonder loaf line.
That was great! I have no idea what he was really trying to sing once it starts to get ridiculous.
Thank you for sharing. That was hilarious! The only thing funnier was my husband’s laughter. He was literally in tears… LOL
This was hilarious!!! I needed that. Thank you.
Okay, this just makes me think of the time Joe Cocker was on Saturday Night Live and John Belushi stood right next to him and they both sang a lovely ballad John doing an absolutely perfect imitation of Joe right next to him. There is one such video online, but it’s not the one I remember for SNL.
I’m one of those baby boomers that you make fun of because I probably saw the original of the SNL.
Did you happen to notice the young, full-maned James Taylor on back-up? My all time favorite!!!
My husband and I like the bloody leg part and when he says “LIVER!” the best.
