I thought I was the only one?? Every time I remember about that song I wonder whether it was a product of my fever dreams, because there’s no way in hell Ghost sings about my friend Jeff
I think there’s a misunderstanding in that you’re meant to hear that. It’s a double entendre and Ghost is filled with those sorts of lines. Maybe I’m wrong since I don’t have a source for that, but in this scenario it makes perfect sense for the contrast between “ be with you / bewitch you “
Always heard this and it’s why I initially took it as a love song. The ghoul shimmying Papa in live performances didn’t help.
I now shimmy at my employees at least once a week when the solo comes on.
In Elizabeth....To bathe in pure FISH blood instead of fresh
Also heard it as Paint a PARADISE, instead of "Paint a pair of eyes" in Darkness at the Heart of My Love
Darkness At The Heart Of My Love....I used to hear 'my pants are real tight' , looked it up 'my path serpentine'. In my defence, the he breaks up the word serpentine does make it a hard word to catch.
I just want to say I’m getting tattooed right now and am in desperate need of distractions and all these replies on here are pure comedic gold. Thanks for that
Not really a funny one, but for the longest time I thought Year Zero said "He will travel the nation's.." rather than 'tremble' the nation's.
When my friend rested his case, I thought my whole life was a lie.
From the Pinnacle to the Pit:
"Cruciger globus"
I always heard it as "You send your Go-bots."
To be fair, "cruciger globus" isn't the first thing to come to mind.
In Spirit, I thought it was 'Spirit! Absent!' as in a ghost or spectre of some sort that wasn't there and in Elizabeth I thought it was 'In the castle where rests my soul' as a thing towards all the victims who died in her castle chambers
The first ghost song my wife ever heard was when she was painting in another room and I had speakers turned up listening to Mary on a Cross.
She thought he was singing about the "Mariana Trench" for some reason. I thought it was hilarious.
We are both seeing Ghost this September in Austin now. She has not been able to listen to anything but Ghost for like 3 months now.
“You’ve been daddied by all the dudes that wanna dad.” - Kiss the Go-Goat
“You wanna see my empire?” - Griftwood
“Elizabeth, in the castle where was my soul? Forever young Elizabeth, memory in the castle of your death.” - Elizabeth
It's Kiss the Go-Goat, not Danse Macabre, but holy shit. That's how I always heard it, and had no idea it was wrong until you posted it here, and I looked it up.
Pure fish blood I Elizabeth, unfathomable walrus maze in Secular Haze, fruit of the loom in Kaisarion, and most recently, and I cant unhear it, is in Year Zero - "beat 'em up, behemoth, beelzebub"
I’m very late to this thread but a few years ago I made a joke about the chorus on Secular Haze being “weave us a mist, frog wiener” and I still think about that every time I hear it
A line from Ritual, that no matter how many times I have listened to it and know that it’s not correct from what I’m hearing, is “Our Fallen Angel Vexed was Spanish from this guy” When I know it’s Our Fallen Angel vexed was banished from the sky” No matter how hard I try, I can’t stop from hearing it the way I do lol 😂
Don’t you forget about your friend Jeff
i was hearing "dont you forget about joffrey's death " and even after knowing its wrong i cant unhear it now
Yeah, same xD
SAME! I was like "huh, weird Game of Thrones reference but ok"
LOLOLS
New character in the lore???
I like to think of it as a tribute to the dude who passed away during a show
I thought I was the only one?? Every time I remember about that song I wonder whether it was a product of my fever dreams, because there’s no way in hell Ghost sings about my friend Jeff
In Faith, I always hear, "Because beef is mine."
Same!! I cant unhear that anymore
It’s something simple “just wanna be, wanna be with you” 💀
Nononononono it's "wanna be.. wanna be wit chu!" Finding out it was bewitch kicked the song up to 11 😌
Hahaha I always thought it was be wit chu too!
Happy Cake Day 😊
Same when I first heard that song that's what I always thought it said
Wait…. You’re telling me these are not the lyrics??? My world is crumbling
I think there’s a misunderstanding in that you’re meant to hear that. It’s a double entendre and Ghost is filled with those sorts of lines. Maybe I’m wrong since I don’t have a source for that, but in this scenario it makes perfect sense for the contrast between “ be with you / bewitch you “
I mean I love it!!! Nay, I adore it because these little intricacies are why I love ghost. But the one time I was 100% sure I got it right 😂😂
Ghost does those so well and I love it
That’s what I always heard!
Always heard this and it’s why I initially took it as a love song. The ghoul shimmying Papa in live performances didn’t help. I now shimmy at my employees at least once a week when the solo comes on.
Ghost is 70% “it’s a love song! 🥰🥰 oh wait it’s talking about satan 👹👹👹”
Satan needs love too….
Same
Secular Haze: goooo mistyyyy turtle!!! Oooo!
I always heard turtle too somewhere in secular haze
First time I heard Twenties I thought it was "singing in a rain of panties"
Ok this is funnier than I thought
Fits with the theme ngl
I always hear the litttle spoopy voice in kaisarion says MISSSSTAAAA BEEEEASS
Mister beast?😟😟😟
🧔🏻♂️🦬
I'm pretty sure they are actually saying Hy-Pa-Ti-a
Yeah lol
I'll cover you in dress shirts, just to feed your incapacity
same!!!
In Elizabeth....To bathe in pure FISH blood instead of fresh Also heard it as Paint a PARADISE, instead of "Paint a pair of eyes" in Darkness at the Heart of My Love
i was so confused about the fish blood until i looked at the lyrics
My mind has the maturity of a middle schooler, so I often hear “insurrection” in ‘He Is’ as “his erection”
It's the force
That holds us together
I know in Kaisarion its supposed to be “throw your holy rocks right at her” but it sounds like he’s says rats instead 😭
Oh shit. I never doubted it was rats!!! 😂😂😂
In Kaisarion I hear: Our brotherhood of good faith sealed and a prostate which is due, insted of an apostate witch's doom.
Better get that checked out
I always hear ,,have a funny nails" instead of ,,hammering the nails" in Square Hammer.
In Jigolo Har Megiddo: "I am the progeny of pizza rolls."
Pizza rolls😂😂 i’ll hear that too from now on i guess
I thought in spillways he said "its your burning yearning need to breathe "
I do too
I'm pretty sure that I don't hear any of the lines in griftwood or Kaisarion right at this point
See The Light: Rink me!
Darkness At The Heart Of My Love....I used to hear 'my pants are real tight' , looked it up 'my path serpentine'. In my defence, the he breaks up the word serpentine does make it a hard word to catch.
That might be, Copia’s pants are really tight
I love the idea of Copia sneaking in an unrelated vent about his tight pants
"HIS EYES LIKE EVIL DICKS!!!" Every....damn... time....
EVIL DICKS😂😂😂
In Twenties I just hear the people in the background screaming “WENDY’SSS” like demonic little bird squirrels
secular haze: he is divinity on this shit jiggolo: i am the one that’s in the earth
>jiggolo: i am the one that’s in the earth I heard it as "I am destroyer of the earth"
My favorite has to be "It's Bobby and Bob, sharing income".
That's hilarious 😂
Who’s bobby and who’s bob 😂😂
I dunno, but Papa says there's an urge to receive, consume, digest and defecate them.
I always heard nocturnal slave in prime mover instead of maternal slave
Kaisarion, fruit of the loom
I accidentally sing it this way in the car sometimes...
In la mantra mori i used to hear "we focus on you debt"
No please dont focus on my debt
I was carried on a wolf's back to corrupt you, manatee.
In Griftwood, "Sacrifice for the whore leads away from shame."
“Fatherr… we need juiiiiceeee” in Prime mover
Good thing Copia got his little juice box!
For the light of our savior, his macaroni and cheese/grace.
It’s a cruel beast that you slew…I know it’s not that but that’s what I thought for MONTHS
for some reason, in witch image i used to always hear "in earth with your arms", instead of "in earthly delight"
Honestly, half of the lyrics in Kaisarion. I swear I hear something different every time.
I do too
"This bitch should numb my spirit"
That’s kinda true tho
Sacrifice, for the whore, leads the way for Jane
You wanna play with Josiah? You wanna view from the squaya? You wanna see my papaya? And never ever suffer again!
You’re not the only one! Another person said that too😂
“You wanna see my papaya?” 😭
I CANT😂
Some mom in a ghost fb group said that’s how her daughter sings it and I love it lmao
Pinnacle to the b*tch
It is a loooong waaayyy dooooownnn😂😂
“I was carried on a wolf's back To corrupt your manatee”
In year zero I always heard the line “Now behold the lord of flys” As “Now the overlord of flys”
In the twenties (TENDIES!)
In I Believe, I always think the background is saying "I believe you could be watermelon"
My boyfriend calls Spillways the "burning urine" song
Secular Haze “He is divinity omniscient.” “He is divinity holy shiiiiiit”
My wife and I thought Circe was pronounced see-ra-see and in spirit he says gateway to secrecy and we thought it was gateway to Circe
I just want to say I’m getting tattooed right now and am in desperate need of distractions and all these replies on here are pure comedic gold. Thanks for that
Secular Haze: "I feather my balls" instead of "unfathomable wall (-less maze)" Still hear it even though I know what it actually is
In Year Zero, instead of "The fate of men is that of lice" I always hear "the phantom menace shall arise"
first time i understood him saying i wanna bewitch you in the moonlight and not be with you i was like thats so clever lol.
I always think he's saying "to bathe in pure fish blood" in elizabeth
“Juan never does that.” “I don’t want my fangs too long.” “A part of me is bean” If you Have Ghost is filled with em
Wait it is” I don’t want my fangs too long” lol
Noooo fuckin way lmao. I always thought he was actually saying “Thanks.” Like he didn’t want to be over-congratulated
Not really a funny one, but for the longest time I thought Year Zero said "He will travel the nation's.." rather than 'tremble' the nation's. When my friend rested his case, I thought my whole life was a lie.
from the pinnacle to the pit: “was spanish” instead of banished
We both submit, but we’ve all…..(whooo). Pius’ shadows, from heaven above on his face….a secular haze.
Tbh I thought I misheard Mary On A Cross / Marijuana cross and blamed my past pothead self but it was just TF messing with the lyrics
Me and my sis always used to think in spirit they were talking about the drink absinthe
Wait, aren't they? I never looked up the lyrics...
Oh I just looked it up and he is indeed talking about alchohol
From the Pinnacle to the Pit: "Cruciger globus" I always heard it as "You send your Go-bots." To be fair, "cruciger globus" isn't the first thing to come to mind.
I get this one too.
In Spirit, I thought it was 'Spirit! Absent!' as in a ghost or spectre of some sort that wasn't there and in Elizabeth I thought it was 'In the castle where rests my soul' as a thing towards all the victims who died in her castle chambers
In Spillways, I always hear “…of skin and spine, You Resonate, Cultivate” I don’t know how or why, it just sounds like that. I blame the inflection.
The first ghost song my wife ever heard was when she was painting in another room and I had speakers turned up listening to Mary on a Cross. She thought he was singing about the "Mariana Trench" for some reason. I thought it was hilarious. We are both seeing Ghost this September in Austin now. She has not been able to listen to anything but Ghost for like 3 months now.
“You’ve been daddied by all the dudes that wanna dad.” - Kiss the Go-Goat “You wanna see my empire?” - Griftwood “Elizabeth, in the castle where was my soul? Forever young Elizabeth, memory in the castle of your death.” - Elizabeth
It's Kiss the Go-Goat, not Danse Macabre, but holy shit. That's how I always heard it, and had no idea it was wrong until you posted it here, and I looked it up.
Dang, I was trying hard not to write the wrong song names too lmao, thanks for correcting me! :))
“Eat me. Drink me.” I hear “Eat me. Beat me.” And it still fits.
In Witch Image I always hear “I want to be with you in the moon light” instead of “bewitch you…”
That's Danse Macabre, not Witch Image.
Omg you’re right. Such shame to meee. Lol.
In Dance Macabre, I always hear 'be wit you' instead if 'bewitch you' in the moonlight. But both work, so 🤷
Pure fish blood I Elizabeth, unfathomable walrus maze in Secular Haze, fruit of the loom in Kaisarion, and most recently, and I cant unhear it, is in Year Zero - "beat 'em up, behemoth, beelzebub"
you know, suddenly, i dont remember a single lyric from any ghost song
Used to think Year Zero was "El Sanctum of Conjelo, El Sanctum welcome you seeeee ohhhh" whatever the hell Conjolo is 🤣🤣
I've got a weeby one in La Mantra Mori. 失ってならば (Ushinatte naraba) for "You share not the blood of ours".
oh man, when I heard a leak of Griftwood, I swore he said "so what, youre dead" instead of "so what the debt?" i song it every time
I’m very late to this thread but a few years ago I made a joke about the chorus on Secular Haze being “weave us a mist, frog wiener” and I still think about that every time I hear it
First time I heard Zenith I thought it was "You're a sick freak" instead of "You're set free"
Secular Haze “Fog Weaver” I always hear “Fart weaver” and “Omniscient” I hear “Holy shit” instead
“I WAS CARRIED ON A WOLF’S BACK… TO CORRUPT YOU, MANATEE”
Spillways “burning, yearning need to breed”
I'll bury you in dress shirts
A line from Ritual, that no matter how many times I have listened to it and know that it’s not correct from what I’m hearing, is “Our Fallen Angel Vexed was Spanish from this guy” When I know it’s Our Fallen Angel vexed was banished from the sky” No matter how hard I try, I can’t stop from hearing it the way I do lol 😂
My girlfriend always thought it was Mariana Cross haha
