Pronoun Songs

[D'Artagnon]

Okay, admit it.  We've all done it.  The radio is on, be it in the car, the shower, jogging, cleaning up around the house, and you are singing along with the music.  Loud.  Off-key.  Missing words.  Really, really, really bad singing.

 

But the song has the wrong pronouns.  She this, Her that.  I love music, and I sing and change the pronouns.  Sorry, but being gay, there are just times when the song is saying what I'm feeling, but the pronouns are wrong.  Like in the song "Brown Eyed Girl" by the amazing Van Morrison.  I don't have a brown eyed girl.  I have a blue eyed boy.  So, while that example is a bit of a stretch, you get the idea.

 

So, I'm betting I'm not the only one that does this.  What songs do you change to suit your life?  Multiple songs?  List 'em all, or comment on other people's selections.  Here's my first, for those unfamiliar.

Here's another. From John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band, On the Darkside.  Happy feet in three... two.. one...

Can't think of  specific ones but I've done it with one exception; I am not off key!!

"My Guy"
 

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day.
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May.

I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My guy (my guy, my guy)
Talkin' 'bout my guy (my guy).

I've got so much honey the bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.

Well, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My guy  (my guy , my guy )
Talkin' 'bout my guy  (my guy ).

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Ooooh.

I don't need no money, fortune or fame.
I've got all the riches, baby, one man can claim.

Well, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My guy (my guy , my guy )

Talkin' 'bout my guy  (my guy .

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
With my guy .

I've even got the month of May
With my guy 
Talkin' 'bout
Talkin' 'bout
Talkin' 'bout
My guy 
Ooooh
My guy 
As long as I can talk about my guy ...

Atlanta Rhythm Section - "So Into You"

This one is more of a groove and mood song.   I just love the how the bass carries the song and the other instruments seem to tease the melodies and harmonies out.  It's a very subtle, smooth and sensual song.  Coincidentally, when I sing this one along with the radio, i almost always substitute "Vibes" in the second line with "Thighs"  Lol, well, we all fill in the blanks on some songs.  And lets admit it, that voice is just dripping with HAWT!

When you walked into the room
There was voodoo in the vibes
I was captured by your style
But I could not get your eyes
Now I stand here helplessly
Hoping you'll get into me

 

I am so into you
I can't think of nothing else
I am so into you
I can't think of nothing else
Thinkin' how it's gonna be
Whenever I get you next to me
It's gonna be good
Don't you know
From your head to toe
Gonna love you all over
Over and over
Me into you, you into me
Me into you

I'm so into you
I'm so into you...

 

When you walked into the room
There was voodoo in the vibes
I was captured by your style
But I could not get your eyes
Now I stand here helplessly
Hopin' you'll get into me

 

I am so into you
I can't get to nothing else
I am so into you, baby
I can't get to nothing else, no, no, no
Come on baby
I'm so into you
Love the things you do
Listen, baby
You're driving me crazy
Come on baby
I'm so into you
Love the things you do

Collin Raye -- One Boy, One Girl (changed to One Boy, One Boy)

 

 

Lyrics -- Modified

 

He finally gave in to his friend's girlfriend

When she said, "there's someone you should meet"

At a crowded restaurant way cross town

He waited impatiently

When he walked in their eyes met

and they both stared

And right there and then everyone else disappeared but

 

[Chorus:]

One boy, one boy, two hearts beating wildly

To put it mildly it was love at first sight

He smiled, he smiled, and they knew right away

This was the day they'd waited for all their lives

And for a moment the whole world revolved

Around one boy and one boy

 

In no time at all they were standing there

In the front of a little church

In front of their friends and family

Repeating those sacred words

Preacher said, "son kiss your husband"

and he raised his eyes

Like the night they met time just stood still

 

[Repeat Chorus]

 

He was holding his hand when the doctor looked up and grinned

"congratulations, twins"

 

[Repeat Chorus]
