    Have you ever thought you knew what a songwriter was on about and then realised you were completely wrong? This happened to me last night and I've been left kind of devastated.

    Imagine my horror when I found out that one of my favourite musicians was in fact a weird pervert. I have loved John Lennon since I was little, but it was pointed out to me that one of my favourite tracks, Come together was about something called a bukkake session. At first I thought the person had said buck cake and it was some tasty vegetarian snack dreamed up by Linda McCartney. I googled it and found out it is when participants ejaculate over some chosen person. The lyrics finally made sense. Come together right now over me. Disgusting. I hope to God it was Yoko and Linda wasn't involved.

    Have any other forum members accidently misinterpreted song lyrics?

    Unlucky Moses.

    If you had a few more months on here you'd have known exactly what a bukkake session was. A favourite of ST if I'm not mistaken.

    Can only think of Golden Brown off the top of my head. Still not got a clue what the songs actually about.

    Its a simple song about the joy of a perfectly made slice of toast.

    Being a Bowie fan it happens to me all the time. Songs I thought I knew well when I was 14 are now a complete mystery to me. Mind you, how many 14 year olds know that Oh, You Pretty Things was influenced by Alastair Crowley and Friedrich Nietzsche and is about "the impending obsolescence of the human race in favour of an alliance between arriving aliens and the youth of the present society"?
