I RECENTLY FINISHED THIS BOOK AND LLLOOOVVVEEDD IT! IT IS WRITTEN BY GAVIN EDWARDS WHO HAS WRITTEN THREE OTHER BOOKS ON MISHEARD LYRICS AS WELL AS HAS WRITTEN FOR MAJOR PUBLICATIONS SUCH AS "DETAILS", "SPIN", AND THE ALWAYS FANTASTIC "ROLLING STONE".

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE READ BOOKS SUCH AS "WHY DO MEN HAVE NIPPLES" (and if you haven't read the book you should go get it NOW its awesome) THIS BOOK IS WRITTEN IN THE SAME STYLE OF QUESTION AND ANSWER. BUT DO NOT GET ANY IDEAS THESE ARE NOT YOUR EVERYDAY MUSIC QUESTIONS LIKE CHORDS AND LYRICS. OH NO NO THESE QUESTIONS ARE ABOUT THINGS LIKE CERTAIN BANDS GETTING MOLD OF THEIR PENISES OR PLEASURING A GROUPIE WITH A FISH.

SO IF YOU ARE A TRUE MUSIC FAN OR HELL IF YOU HAVE EVER EVEN HEARD MUSIC THIS IS A GREAT BOOK FOR YOU TO READ. THE AUTHOR KNOWS HIS STUFF AND HE KNOWS WHEN TO BE FUNNY OR A SMART ASS AND ALSO WHEN TO BE COMPLETELY SERIOUS. THIS BOOK LETS YOU INTO THE LIVES AND INTO THE INSPIRATIONS OF OUR FAVORITE CURRENT AND CLASSIC MUSICIANS.
