I often find that when I look up lyrics to songs, they end up being wrong. We do contests on the radio that are about songs and callers will argue about a song's lyrics because they did an internet search. We'll have the vinyl or CD in the studio with the official lyrics on the sleeve or in a booklet that the label released with the album and lot of them do not match what people find on the internet.
If anyone on the Audities list has albums on CD from Japan, that's another great example of the translation getting lost between English and Japanese. It's nice that those albums include lyrics to album releases that didn't have lyrics included originally, but the English translations are hysterical.Â

I looked up a song's lyrics, give this major band, and Google's own
result, has the chorus of the lyrics wrong! How often does that happen?

This band could have been a great power pop band, with just a little
changes. For example, see this song, which you might not heard.

Their sound often reminds me of Wannadies. :)
