Have any of you ladies, or guys for that matter, been drying your hair and you can barely hear bits and pieces of a song from the TV or radio? You are singing along to what song you think it is and then when you turn the dryer off it ends up being something completely different?

Well I was the culprit of this today! I thought I was listening to Dan Fogelberg's Longer and it ended up being Jump by Van Halen! Has this ever happened to anyone else before too?

Those are quite opposite songs to get those goofed.

Every day when I take a shower I have 80's music playing....for the past few days...I play "Rocket" and "Don't Shoot Shot Gun" by Def Leppard...so I know exactly what song I am listening to....I don't even listen to the radio except when driving my car...and if I was drying my hair then...I'd have something else beside the words of the song to worry about. hahahaha.

Today I did hear a good song on the radio while driving...it was Tom Petty singing "Don't Do me Like that".

Jessie, you may not be aware of what you did, but this is actually a time tested method I have used a few times to create songs. You hear the melody and because of the noise, it sounds muffled and you hear different things. I did that once with a Weezer song once, just heard a different melody than the one playing and voila.

Did you do it with any 80s songs, though? [Wink] [Razz]

Rockesteady, I seem to recall I did it with Footloose and the Pet Shop Boys it's a sin once.

Did you see Sixteen Candles yet?
