You tube video, with hilarious subtitles, of Joe Cocker singing at Woodstock

Do you ever hear a song's lyrics and understand them completely different from what the singer intended?

For example CCR's "There's a bathroom on the right" (There's a bad moon on the rise) or Rod Stewart's "Every Pig Sure Has a Jelly Doughnut" (Every picture has a story don't it?)

Well, this subtitled version of Joe Cocker is the mother of all misunderstandings. A little levity during an otherwise stressful week.

Ok, that was some funny stuff right there. I forgot how handsome Joe Cocker was. For about 3.2 seconds anyway, then the spazzing started and remembered, yep, he’s a dork.

Love his music though.

“Wrapped up like a douche” instead of “revved up like a deuce from Manfred Mann’s over-produced cover of Springsteen’s “Blinded by the light” comes immediately to mind.

The John Belushi send-up of Joe Cocker on SNL was one of the funniest things ever.

John Belushi can do it better.
