Melanie, "Lay Down (Candles In The Rain)"
Misheard Lyrics:
Let your white bird smile up
While the world's spinning 'round.
Original Lyrics:
Let your white birds smile up
At the ones who stand and frown.
This has to be one of the most misquoted songs around. Melanie's voice in the chorus is not all that clear and the Edwin Hawkins Gospel Singers just about drown her out. Still, it's a great song.
