OMG: you mean it wasn't in Cleveland ? Holy Cow, I thought for sure it said Cleveland and I was wondering why too.

Well, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is in Cleveland---so not too much of a stretch, right?

I had a Jesus Loves me screw up too. Mine was-They are weak but pee is strong. Made sense to me then, still does.:)

I know a middle aged woman who still sings "Felice Navidad" as "Felice la de da".

Does anyone remember the magazines that had the song lyrics in them? I think it was during the mid-sixties. Now we can just get on the internet.

HeuyLewis and the News sang "Heart of Rock and Roll" in 1984. Museum in Cleveland opened in 1994.

My daughter was singing: Peter, James & John & Sambo and I didn't find out what the song actually said until years later while working with younger kids and found out it was: Peter, James & John in a Sail Boat.

ROFL! To this day I get lyrics mixed up, yet if I happen to get an ear-worm (hear a song I keep humming or singing to myself that I can't forget) and I don't know the lyrics to, I'll fill in the unknown words for whatever fits and sing the song that way. Have done that my entire life. :)

Not sure if it's an 80's or 90's song, don't even know the name of the song or the correct line but I am sure it's not "Pull my taco" Lol! Google says: Sophie B. Hawkins song, As I lay me down original lyrics: ooo lah kah ko. think I like Pull my taco better.
