    Songs ruined by poor grammar

    Listening to Duels 'What we Did Wrong'.

    Good song, ruined by:

    "Papa we loved, but was we so naïve
    That we was living a lie"

    I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).

      You and me are floating on a tidal wave... (although I suspect some feel that Coldplay deserves ruining, I quite like them)

        Conscious Uncoupling - Separation : Ruined by a poor turn of (invented) phrase. What a pair of unmitigated, self-righteous, *******.

          ABBA, The Winner Takes It All.

          The line that goes 'A big thing or a small' - may well be grammatically ok but it totally grates....

            But if this ever changin' world. In which we live in. Makes you give in and cry. Say live and let die...

            What's worse is that "In which we're living" would have worked very nicely.
            Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

              I demand that before anyone can appear on the X Factor they must have a minimum education of degree in English. The winner should be the one with the most PhDs.

                "And did those feet in ancient times walk upon England's mountains green"

                ...No they didn't. End of poem. End of song.
                …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

                  Poets have taken many liberties using grammar and spelling for centuries, no difference here
