David Bowie and Oasis Responsible for The Most Commonly Misinterpreted Lyrics in U.K. and Researchers Want To Know Why
The Wellcome Trust, a U.K.-based charitable group specializing in advancing human and animal health, has given a £60,000 grant to an Irish choral group to help with a study on misunderstood song lyrics. The misunderstandings, referred to as a "mondegreen" in homage to an oft-misunderstood Scottish ballad, could serve to help researchers understand how the hearing-impaired perceive music. Those in the audience will listen to The Clerks choral ensemble and use an electric handset to note what lines they can understand and those they cannot. Analyzing what words are most confusing for the listeners can reflect on the nature of language and the nature of song vocals as well.
